Clean n jerk is more of a power movment than a mass builder, although I enjoy doing them every now and then.

more power = more muscle = more overall mass.

Not always, I've often seen smaller guys out power larger guys.
Clean n jerk will help but isn't the best thing for mass gains.

This is very true and it's not just genetics it's training as well

what does "CG bench" stand for? a variation on bench press?

**Pazza** · 03-12-2003, 11:08 PM

cg means close grip

Also t bar rows will add tons of mass to your back and biceps

My gym doesn't have one either, I use a straight bar and a chain with handles on each end, I can to the same thing with that.

if you have some sort of handles in your gym you can stick one end of a barbell into a corner, load the other end up with weight, attach the handles somewhere under the weight and use that set up as a T-Bar Row. Or you can try just grabbing the bar under the weight without handles, i never liked it that way so before i moved to my new gym i would never do them.

Barbell rows are a good substitute for T-bar rows.
