Reply With QuoteTake a look at some of the stickies at the top of this forum page. They should help in designing a basic program.
It will be hard to lift without putting on mass. You are going to put some muscle on either way.

Confused!!!!
Hey
Im sure this question has been asked a million times and ill probably cop a spray for it!
Q : I don't want to get to big, but want to become more muscular, what is the best rep range to achieve this?
Currently I do all my compound excercises such as Deadlift, Squat, Bent Row at 5x5 and all my isolations at anywhere from 2 x 8-12 or 3 x 8-12.
At the moment i feel like im floundering a bit as there is so so much information out there but its all way to much for my feeble mind to take in.
If anyone is willing to write me a program I would be stoked!! I work out at home and have the following equipment
Bench
Lat Pull
T-bar
Power Rack
and obviously dumbells, BB & Ez bar.
Your advise will be well recieved.
Cheers

To get muscular you'll have to actually put on muscle, yknow. If you cut with nothing underneath you'll have a six pack, sure, but you'll look emaciated like a skeleton or something.
Besides, its not as easy as you think to get big - simple yes, easy no. You actually have to work at it.
