Want Bigger Arms, but not Broader Shoulders.

I have thin arms but broad shoulders so I am looking for excercises that will isolate my arm muscles without working on my shoulder muscles at the same time. I am concerned that if i do standing barbell curls then these will just make my shoulders broader at the same time, which is something I don't want. Can you please advice me on excercises that will target my main upper and lower arm muscles without making my shoulders any broader than they are now. Also my shoulders are sightly rounded foward and I have to make an effort all the time to keep them back. Can you please advice on how I could fix that. Thanks for your time.

arm toning without shoulder bulking

Resistance training focusing on the muscles in the arms - i.e. the biceps, triceps, and deltoids would be the best way to get those results.

You will want just enough resistance weight to feel your muscles tiring after 10-12 repetitions.

Good exercises would include curls for your biceps, French curls for your triceps, and lateral lifts for your deltoids. Modified push ups, where you push up from your knees instead of your feet, are also good for working all of those arm muscle groups.

Focusing on maintaining good posture with your spine straight and shoulders back, while exhaling as you lift will also help your shoulders learn to stay back automatically.
