Thread: Training Advice?

im still kinda new to all this but if you want your arms to look bigger work on the triceps for that get 7.5 to 10 lb freeweights as there are many excersises which can be done to bulk up you triceps best one ive found is to hold the weight straight up in the air then bend you arm so that the weight is half behind your head then raise arm to straight posistion again. its good for triceps but im not sure of the name of that work out and i may not have described it great so hope this helps

Do deadlifts and squats.

I've been working on my abs 4-5 days week for about a month and im noticing improvement. I want to start working on my arms, I cant really do that many correct pushups all the way to the floor.

Any advice on what size freeweight I should buy 10 or 15? I tried doing 5lb weights awile ago but lifting them 100times didnt do anything.

Go Heavier.

Start reading the stickies at the top of each and every relevant forum.

yea I read it just makin sure

lol ty arnies left nu

I got another question in high school they found out I had curvature of spine but they really never said how to correct it are there any excercises to help this? My Chest is uneven quite a bit because of this.

im no vet like some of the other guys here, but my advice would be to use more weight, less reps divided into sets of about 10, 15 at most, take rest days regularly, and of course - diet is crucial.

The best advice you can get is to buy some 1.25 pound plates and workout progressively. Either up the weight and or reps every workout. If your diet is in check then strength will preceed hypertrophy. Keep the volume low and increase reps and or weight every week if at all possible...

Also focus on Squats, Deadlifts, Military and Bench presses.

if you have curvature of spine consult doctor first i would recomend because you cant be sure what damage your causing your spine and its not sometihng you want to mess with

bleh doctors, im not insured for one at the moment


oh yea 1.25 pound plates? what are these thanks im new to this

I'm also not very experienced, but I've done military presses, and I must say they're excellent for the back. However, you MUST do them standing up to get the full effect. If you haven't worked your back (like I was before) and you start to do those, you should find them very difficult (using free weights and standing, that is). After a month or two, your back will be much improved. As for how that affects the spine, I'm not really sure. Maybe a more experienced member could chime in...
