You can't train your upper chest though, emphasize it at most. |
|
I am new to bodybuilding and wondered if anyone can tell me how to reduce the fat from my arms and stomach and turn that into muscle?
What exercises i should do, i do weight lifting now, but nothin too heavy, rest assured i think i can lift something heavier, i am quite strong as it is |
|
this is what i ment, i know i cant work the upper chest alone and can only emphasize it more from incline presses and flys. what i was asking was that do you think i should just shick to falt presses and flys for now and maybe in about a year start doing incline. because i am quiet new to weight lifting can i get a well developed chest includeing the upper chest just from fat work for now, and then later on down the line start doing incline work. thanks for the reply.

You actually can turn fat into muscle if you train regularly.
|
|

If you like reading I recommend you the book "Totalee Awesome" by 8-time Mr O Lee Haney, there's a chapter on redistributing body weight

Human body is not a separate thing. To give an example, if you take a break from training, your muscles quickly deflate, because your body doesn't need/want them, it prefers storing them as bodyfat. But when you start training again you quickly retrieve your muscles, with no significant changes in body weight

I read the best son. I mean Arnold, Haney, Yates, Coleman, etc
Maybe you need less reading and more gym practice. About Chuck Norris, I also read Bruce Lee, I like him more |
|
These 27 sets take less than an hour. As I said before, less is undertraining. You can't fully work a large bodypart like chest or back with just two exercises unless you are an advanced HIT trainer. Warming up is always necessary, specially for delts

heh...you called me: Son....that's....funny...good to see you have a sense of humor.
|
|
All right son, I realize that you have no idea about training. Now, get your Arnold book and tell me low volume, revisit Haney's and Coleman's workouts...
Even Dorian began doing more volume than later in his career About HIT, I began with it, when you begin it works like everything else, but it's not a good approach for a beginner. And I have to tell you that I became the biggest guy in my gym in a matter of months... That's four years ago |
|
Your an idiot. You've been reading material that is only going to yield good results for people who plan on taking a truck load of steroids, otherwise there is an exceptionally strong chance of overtraining and not seeing any kind of progress.

|
You're a funny guy.
have you noticed..nobody insulting me...or ridiculing anything I post? |
|
Hey O-Superior One...your mom is calling, she wants you to hurry home, do your chores and get ready for dinner...and if you're a good boy and clean your plate, she may even let you watch Sponge Bob tonight!
sincerely, The Skinny Guys |

At least you admit that you're a skinny guy. O-Superior One? I like it Super Zero in Training

3 sets of curls for the biceps? way too much isolation.... the small muscle groups are getting way more volume than the large groups, how is this logical?
|
|
If you read properly, it's three sets of each exercise for each body part
|
|
4. BB curl: 1 w/u, 3 x 6-10
5. DB curl: 3 x 6-10 6. Concentration curl: 3 x 6-10 What are the three different body parts? ![]() |
|
Are you stupid or what? Biceps is a bodypart, chest is a bodypart, brain is a bodypart...
|
|
You like being referred to as: Super Zero while you are training?
does that come with a cape and mask? Do you have a theme song? lemme guess: It sounds something like this: HERE I COME TO OVERTRAIN!!!!!! ![]() ![]() I crack myself up sometimes. |
|
Does anybody here knows the difference between a body part and an exercise? Let's start with the basics...
|
|
The example you gave is terrible... the worst program I have ever seen... metallibanger fool...
