      Hey guys I started exercising last September by doing dumbell curls at 25lbs, my arms were 11 inches (cold) and I weighed 150LBS.

      now 8 months later, I'm at 50lbs dumbell curls (3 sets of at least 6 reps), my arms are now 13 inches cold and I'm at roughly 165LBS.

      Are these good gains?

      PS. my arms have stayed at 13 inches for the past 2 months whereas before they were growing a 1/4 inch a month...

      Seems unlikely you're doing those curls with good form.

      I'd say your form looks like it's not hammer curls but more of a power clean with dumbbells. lol

      50lbs dumbbell curls seems like an awful lot for your body stats.

      What about the rest of your body? Stats on bench/squats?
