Would like to put on some size with a clean bulk. Diet is roughly 3200-3400 cals with a 40/40/20 ratio. A couple of years ago I had some problems with my right RC that lasted about 6 months. Since then I am very careful and have been supplementing with glucosamine ever since with no real...

One thing I failed to mention is that my first exercise will always be very heavy... low rep pyramid set for each muscle group worked. After that, medium weight then low weight higher reps.

I have been doing a modified DC training for a while now and am planning on changing things up a bit within the next few weeks. please take a look and tell me what and where I could tweak for optimal gains. I tend to over do it sometimes so let me know.... Stats: age - 38 :( (time sucks) weight...

Even off the juice if you are trying to add weight that diet looks pretty weak. I am a classic endo so I put on a lot of fat when I bulk, but I have learned that if you want to put on the muscle, you have to eat to do it. You can diet latter, don't sacrifice your gains by eating like a girl...

Here's my four-day split... Tuesday - Chest/Tri's Wednesday - Back/Bi's Friday - Shoulders/Traps Saturday - Legs/Calves I put as much distance between back and legs as possible. Since were on this topic... how does this look? I have struggled with frequency in my training and am...

First, thanks for the responses. Like I mentioned, he is only 10, but 4' 10" tall... I think. He is interested and I would really like him to start working on his form only. Not a lot of weight at all, but something to get the proper mechanics of the basic lifts.

Does anyone know what a good age to start kids lifting? I have a 10yr old son who wants to start working out, but I hesitate as I have heard it can stunt growth. If anyone has some good information I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

I will start with them this week... I am assuming I should work them in with my back routine? Also, thanks again for the feedback, much better than the BB4U forum.

I have no way to do dips in my basement. I would like to do them, just do not have the equipment. With dead lifts, I have not started them as I am trying not to add any more thickness to my waist. Although it hits a vast array of muscles when added in a routine, I did not want to add the...

First of thanks to all of you!!! Like I mentioned before I have this posted in another forum and those chumps haven???t offered one suggestion so thanks to all. I apologize for this being such a long post, but feel I need the help if I want to win this comp. Now, here is what I have done in...

Thanks a ton! I have had this posted in 2 different forums and you are the first to reply in 2 days and I really appreciate it. Concerning the arm work, I have trimmed those workouts down to 7-8 sets on bi's and 9-10 on tri's. Do you suggest keeping them both at a 6 set max? I know in the past...

I will be beginning an overall physique competition with a friend of mine starting Nov. 1. We will be taking the before pictures this week. The competition will last for 6 months and the after photographs only will determine the winner. No measurements of weight (added/lost) or size will be...

Cream cheese in a pie pan with cherries over the top of it.... UUMM tasty. Can ya tell I am craving some serious carbs?

I am currently trying it and I like it as well. Pumps are immediate and long lasting.... I bought the orange flavor and love the taste, I think it is great. I have never been impressed with BSN before, but I like this stuff so far.

I think you use more of the front part of your delts than you do triceps during most chest work. I work my chest hard then finish up with a front delt exercise and two side delt exercises. I then hit my rear delts at the end of my back routine the next day. I want the maximum rest for...
