    I don't, because I don't care about my arms.

    Rip on curls : '' I don't do them, and my arms are astonishingly impressive, to the point of embarrassment at times.''

    Serious and all joking aside, shaking hands with Rip really made an impression on me at a a Seminar. They are indeed astonishingly impressive in person. You just don't notice their charisma on video.

    When people ask me what do I do for arms, I always reply, “I squat”. Then they leave me alone.

    I figured that would be your answer. I had just wondered if you did any direct work (particularly triceps) like jm press, push downs etc. but I get it. Trying to get my bench up to 300 and it’s getting harder and harder.

    Arms are useful if you do manual labour.
