this has worked wonders so far. People wanna get diesel from weightlifting and reps. Best test for overall strength is muscular endurance.

You are actually referring to "strength-endurance," not just "strength." Strength is generally broken down into 3 types: maximal strength, explosive strength(speed-strength), and strength endurance. Read this: Click

This kid is asking for bicep help and you want him to go on a run with a damn sandbag? Thats plain dumb. Im sure itll do wonders for your endurance, probably fat loss as well, but you wont gain size on your arms. Just think through that, running, no arm work, carrying a sandbag, very little arm work, how would that equate to hypertrophy? It sounds like a good workout and all, but not for arms.

a good exercise to get bigger biceps, which is a favorite of mine is seated curls, you put a bench at a 45 degree angle, while sitting have your arms relaxed by your sides holding dumbbells and only moving your forearms curl the DB up to your shoulders, when you get to full contraction tense and hold for a second or 2 then lower DB slowly till arms are fully relaxed and because its relaxed this will let your bicep stretch and let blood flow to your bicep which will create a really good pump, you will wanna do 5 sets, with a rep range of either 6-8 or 8-12, depending on what you think your body will best react too, if you want bigger arms in general you will want to workout your triceps because the triceps build up around two thirds of your arm

THE ALMIGHTY CHIN-UP helps too

You did not talk about throwing or multiple exercises. Nothing was lost via internet, you just did not say it.

Well you're still retarded. How can you not know that throwing sandbags around results in the ultimate bicep pump?
