I'm looking to put on some weight right now and get a little bigger. Also, I'm not looking for the most expensive or whatever, just the most useful and on the more natural side I guess? Anyway let me know, thanks

First a 2 1/2 weight workout is way too much.....45min to 1 1/2 hours should be your target.

For a shake just get On Whey from Optimum nutrition and mix it with oats and water or milk..

Well, I overexaggerated I guess. Not everyday really, backs and biceps is usually about 2 hours or more depending if I do abs, and the other days are shorter.. But all are an hour or more. thanks for the reply bud

I do back and biceps in 45 minutes..
Post your workout...sets, reps, exercises...ect

whoops.. okay who knows then, let's see.. Honest I can remember the name of the first one, but it's the pull down bar.

I do 3 sets of in front of me (sitting down) and 3 sets pulling it down behind me. I add 10 pounds of weight every set so I usually do about 15,10,5 reps

Rows I do 3 sets of adding more weight depending how I feel every set.

I do 3 sets of inside and outside on the bar standing up or sitting down depending. Add weight every set

I do 3 sets of curls same style as the above. Then 3 sets of hammerfists same style as above. (these are free weights)

Next machine forget the name of, I do 3 to 4 sets of curls adding weight everytime.

That's the standard really, sometimes we do more depending pretty much on how he feels cause I'm usually still into it. Ugh I take a about a half a minute rest inbetween each set, a few minutes waiting for him to go and then I guess a break or to here and there. Now that I think about it, the 2 1/2 hour workout I did cardio with him for fun, stairmaster for 30 minutes or so and I did abs as well.. that's where it was!

up

I do 3 sets of in front of me (sitting down) and 3 sets pulling it down behind me. Don't do pull downs behind the neck...they are very hard on the shoulder joint and do not build the lats any different than in front of the neck pull downs. I add 10 pounds of weight every set so I usually do about 15,10,5 reps

Rows I do 3 sets of adding more weight depending how I feel every set.

I do 3 sets of inside and outside on the bar standing up or sitting down depending. Add weight every set.....so 6 sets here????

I do 3 sets of curls same style as the above. Then 3 sets of hammerfists same style as above. (these are free weights)

Next machine forget the name of, I do 3 to 4 sets of curls adding weight everytime.....drop this....6 sets of curls is plenty

9-12 sets of lats is all you need
5-6 sets of curls after back is good
rest 1-3 minutes between sets.....3 minutes + is more for power lifting

if u wanna get some mass go buy some nlarge2 at closest gnc read the directions and do what it says.

haha thats watsup. thanks for the help


whats the main ingredient in nlarge2? I don't know much about supplements

I suggest 100% Whey by ON. It has the essential BCAAs in isolate form the more potent form. Good size, good price, 24g a scoop. like 71 sevings. With that get some glutamine and some taurine. Taurine also helps with cramps! Consider some glucosamine for your joints. Also a mental enhancer called Ginko is excellent for focus. Comes in tab form and you dont gotta taste nasty ass no-explode n crap. Works for me!

nlarge2 has like 53 grams of protein and has like 600 something calories without milk per serving. its awesome at post workout to its got a shit load of carbs. it should most definitely put a lot more mass on u if u use right.
