You are not listening. At your stage, you need to do like Prince said. Do compound movements. Bench, deadlifts and squats. At this point you don't need to worry about isolation exercises. Take 5-6 years, get some mass and then worry about isolation.

Assassin, Im considering getting 20-25lbs more. Maybe to 180-185 lbs. What I think I want is wide shoulders, wider ribcage and bigger chest.

you can't get a wider ribcage

reimon · 01-18-2007, 08:58 PM

Sure you can. Hold down a bar as you would do pull ups and inhale really deep. Your lungs area expand and you'll feel a crazy burn there. Repeat 15 x 3. Each time has to be reaaally deep.

These are exercises you wont read about on this board.... =)

P.S. it hurts like a bitch.

You can't expand the cartilige in the rib cage, thus no size change, I don't care how hard you inhale.

I have new advice for you scratch everything I said previously...

stop lifting weights and focus on school because based on your level of comprehension you have displayed in this thread you are going to need ALL of the extra time and energy just to get through college.

REAL NICE. You're attacking someone's intelligence who has a 3.8 GPA at Schulich School of Business... It's top 5 schools of business in the world...

absolutely.

reimon · 01-18-2007, 09:11 PM

Thats why i'm asking here for more advice. When you don't know, you ask. =)

John69 · 01-18-2007, 09:11 PM

OMG just bann him already and close this thread FFS.

that's the problem. You ask, people advise you, but you don't take it in.

anyhow, your narrow mind cracks me the hell up!!

reimon · 01-18-2007, 09:23 PM

Yup I'm pretty much done. You can close/delete the thread. =)

Pianomahnn · 01-18-2007, 09:29 PM

Just because you can get a 3.8 in academia doesn't mean you can apply it to real world business applications when you get out. Come over here in a few years after you've established yourself, or failed miserably, and then we'll see.

**CowPimp** · 01-18-2007, 09:33 PM

I'm not going to read through the other 6 pages of that bickering.

Here's what you need to know:

-You aren't going to get bigger if you don't eat enough food.
-Everyone gains a lot of muscle in their first 6 months or so training. Newbie gains are beautiful, but don't think they will last forever.
-You need to grow everywhere. Do compound movements. Lift heavy shit.
-Even if you can't make your diet perfect, you can improve. It's not an all or none thing.
-I work 7 days a week, currently have a 3.8GPA, have received straight As the last 40 credit hours or so (Granted I'm not full time in school though), workout 6 days a week, and I eat like a fucking maniac. It can be done.

it has all been said, despite his incredible academic achievements he cannot seem to comprehend it.

reimon · 01-18-2007, 09:38 PM

I'm taking 6 credits, I want to finish univ in 3years instead of 4 regularly. I'm handling it but it's tough. Also girlfriend takes me an hr every night with her phone calls and fridays, we spend the entire day together, so there goes my time.

My question was directed toward which body parts I should focus on... you guys obviously think I'm too thin to be focusing on individual muscle groups...so I should be doing compound exercises... fine. I'll get a bit more serious about bulking. I really go to the gym for the fun and pleasure I get out of working out, and the gains naturally come with it. I love pushing myself and it's obviously enough to bulk me up (for now).

Anyways, I'm out, i'll see y'all in a couple months if you're still around =)

I'll have a new set of pics, let's see what i manage to get to.
The goal I made tonight is to get to 180lbs by May.
