$70. per week gets you all your meals. The ratios look great (maybe an extra protein shake would be perfect). Keep working out as I do 4-5 days lifting and cardio. Based on the ads, you should drop a couple of pounds(+) a week. 20 lbs in 2 months is what I want. No guess work and no...

Initially, 100 females surveyed, but the result keep coming in from around the world. This poll is from a major on line publication I don't need to mention. These guys are pretty lean now (except Walhberg who looks kind of fat now). Obviously, if you're a serious bodybuilder, you don't give a...

Am I wrong here? It seems the best way to figure out how to achieve your goals is to find a well built guy who is your height and bone structure (thin/thick), and ask them some personal questions: how they got there. Juice/no juice, lifting history, diet, mistakes, years training, etc. I...

One set per major bodypart. After you have warmed your body up. The heaviest set possible to failure (4-6 reps). Maybe do one full body W/O per week. Thanks.

What is this friggin trend? This is the 3rd time some goof has taken plates off my rack while I'm sitting or laying there! Not cool! Anyone else seeing this? You can't take plates from my station while I'm using it just because I'm next to you ...lazy bithc. There are free stations and...

I read The Rock does 21's for lateral raises. Anyone do these? Is overhead press the most important lift for delt development? Also, is it good to do uprights plus lateral & front raises, and reverse fly's? I also do trap work. I want to really step up my shoulder development. Thanks

I've been lifting for years (heavy), but I always seem to pull something or hurt something when I do a non gym activity involving lifting like helping someone move furniture or boxes. And I am strong! Now, I shy away from any real life (functional) lifting of stuff so that I can save myself...

Most people here recommend hammer curls for direct bicep work over barbell or preacher curls. Why? Does anyone do reg curls anymore?

Is this undertraining? I do a push pull, 2 days on/1 off. 3 sets per BP. Pyramid (1st is warm up- easy/ 2nd medium/ 3rd heavy) About 12-15 sets total per WO. Just the major lifts/no frills. Trying to put on muscle. Thanks

Isometrics better than weights? Isometrics is resistance training. Why couldn't you duplicate most major lifts with isometrics done in 3 different ranges of movement (that correspond with a lifting exersice). Actually, you could install an adjustable bar in a doorway and do all the lifts by...

I just found some at my local health food tore. Roasted, a half cup is about 30 grms protein 20 grms fiber 15 grms fat 10 grms carb 250 cals and they taste good. Anyone else eat these?

I've tried everything except gear. I think I've maxed out, genetically. I change my workout and eat more cals/protein and just get a little fatter. I lose the weight and I am pretty close to where I was a few years ago regarding muscle size. My lifts go up when I gain weight from eating. My...

I experimented with timing my reps (4-6) range. If I go as heavy as I can for 4-6 reps, the TOT is terrible! If I drop the weight, I can slow everything down and get the recomended TOT (that I've seen suggested on here). So which is it? 4-6 reps as heavy as you can go (terrible TOT), or drop...

This would amount to nearly 4 FBWO' per week? Anyone do that much over a long period? If I do 3 FBWO's per week, I would be taking (about) 2 days off between each. Maybe the more recovery time would be better because these types of wo's are very taxing, no? Thanks

What is the best DIY method of attaching plates to my body for pull ups and dips? I work out at the gym. I've only seen guys hold plates in legs. Is this feasible? Thanks

I'm ready to start bulking again, but don't want to lose my abs. Any chance? Been training many yrs. Never had a successful "clean bulk" where I saw dramatic growth. My best growth is when I pig out on everything, but losing even 10 lbs of fat (later) sux. Thanks

Kinda dumb, but important to me. I am seeing this girl on Friday night and I want to know when I should lift and eat a gallon of ice cream (for carb explosion). I have Thur or Fri only to lift. Should I go heavy on Thur. and start eating the ice cream all day and into Friday or should I lift...

Does anyone else have this problem? Should I just stop trap work for awhile or go light maybe every other week to keep some shape and let my shoulders catch up? Maybe this is genetic and I can't change it. What do you think? Thanks.

How many SS's do you do for a bodypart? I'm finding that I can only do 2 SS's (4 sets total), and I'm spent on that BP. Seem normal? Thanks

I'm cutting and I need some protein food around 8pm (starving). I've been having cottage cheese (1/2 sm tub), but a can of tuna has less cals, no carbs and less protein. What do you think?
