i want to really build up my whole arm(bicep,forearm,tricep and shoulders)
whats a good workout for that?
also,do protein shakes build muscle?

thank you for you help

read the weight training 101 sticky first. then comeback with specific questions. Most of your questions can be answered there.
 
For some reason, I'm thinking that the "arms workout" there was actually all that you needed for them. I'd get you into a full-body workout to start out with. Also, you should be gaining weight as you are working out. You want to gain muscle mass, not just accumulating fat. Protein shakes are just protein, plain and simple, same that you would find in chicken, or any other food (for the most part). If you need a shake to get in enough protein, then its perfectly fine. Take a search around the forum for full-body workouts, there is a ton you can learn on this site.
 
I have heard of people who focus too much on one area of their bodies and I know they soon regret it. Be sure to spread your efforts evenly throughout your body. Remember nutrition and you should begin to gain weight within a few weeks.
 
lots of back and chest exercises will make your arms grow. skip the hours of bicep curls. do rows and pullups, dumbell presses instead.
