Yes obviously he was talking about barbell curls. He's still a liar or he conveniently forgot to mention he does extreme cheat curls.
Try switching up your diet and look into other movements and exercises. There's an entire technique and exercise's to explore when you're experiencing your plataea faze. That's the problem for most weight lifters. For so long they'll be going strong then all of a sudden, completely level out because your body and muscles are so use to your workout that it has nowhere else to go within your parameters. Try looking up some extended exercise's and isolate secondary muscle's into your routine and switch up your workouts every now and then. From there, you will trick your muscles into something new and growth will occur. It's important not to do the same redundant exercise over and over again over the course of a couple months so you don't hit a wall. You can keep up with what you're doing now, just maybe in your 3rd week of routine, do a completely different exercise that focus's on unique muscle movements.
Sounds like you've plateaued, gota change shit up so your body doesn't get used to the routine. Try a book called Huge in a Hurry by Chad waterbury. Name sounds like a gimmick but its extremely interesting and proven.
all it takes really. I have gone from 130 to 165 over the past year basically with a solid routine.... go hard, eat good no junk but obviously eat more than before. 6 feet in height BTW.
Eat more work out hard. You're still at a semi-light weight. I remember when I was at 200lbs on bench and I was like "damn will I ever get to 2 plates?" Finally did. You will keep progressing if you stick to working out.
plyometrics is the always the way to go. I mean pushups and pull ups of course, but also other weight resisting poses. Like having your back above the ground and holding yourself using only your elbows and 1 heels, for your triceps.Using only your hands for your wrists/forearms, and you with your back facing the ground using your hands, and of course always keep a good diet.
not to be a dick but if your maxing bench at 200, and truly (I say that questionably) repping 135x10 for curls then your very disproportionate when comparing your chest to arms, it must look freaky. I'm not trying to be a dick, just some advice.... catch up your chest otherwise it's going to look really weird. I personally max bench 225 a month ago so I'd guess I'm at 235 now, and I only curl 105x10 and even my arms are probably slightly bigger in proportion lol.
try 250 grams of protein 250 grams of carbs and about 70-80 grams of fat everyday.. increase till you start gaining about a lb a week
If he wants to see muscular gains plyometrics won't do jack shit for him. Not knocking plyos, they're decent for improving athleticism, but won't build you any muscle.
