What Does This Mean?

wnkwink · 04-05-2008, 06:59 PM

Hi everyone, l am new on Ironmagazineforum and seeing so many questions been answered by many experienced bodybuilders which pounded more knowledge to my training. I am now about 67kg at 170cm, goal is to reach 75kg-80kg lean. I have a question would like some feedback to see how l could improve my goal.l I've been training over the last 2 years on and off but after the last 3 weeks back from a 2 months break, l don't feel as sore after my training, although I've lost strength during that break, I've quickly gain back not far from where i left. l concentrate on strict form and get the pump during the workout but like l said, don't get as sore as before. Thank you and hope to hear from member's advice.

if you are progressing and adding weight to the bar, that is the most important thing. Don't worry about soreness. measure success by progression.

Pump doesn't mean anything. Neither does soreness the next day.

oh ok.. thanks for the advice from both. Another question is if l want to gain a specific muscle for instant the bicep, can l train it more than once a week? say 2-3 times a week?

In most workouts you work your biceps indirectly anyways

twice a week at most 3 seems like over-training

Most of your pulling exercises are working your bi's...i.e. pullups, rows, etc. You could add a couple iso's at the end of your workout, after you do your compounds(pullups etc.) like barbell curls or hammer curls. Don't overdo it, it takes time, patience, hardwork. Keep plugging away and over time it will come.
