Cool site, thanks.

I voted Big. Huge looks good, but not for me.

I'm sorry, are you saying the only sets that were worth anything were the 4 sets of 185? I guess I just dont understand the meaning of your comment. I do the 95 and 135 and 165 to warm up my muscles. If I jump right to 185, it feels heavy as hell. I did 205 because I wanted to make sure I still...

Ok, tonight was my first changed bench. Im thinking I'll like it. It went like so: 135lbs 6 reps 155lbs 10 reps 185lbs 6 reps (strained, felt heavy) 185lbs 6 reps (slightly less strain) 185lbs 6 reps (barely got the 6th) 185lbs 6 reps (barely got the 6th) 165lbs 10 reps (wanted 11) ----...

I think im just slow, I had a hard time understanding the link you provided me. :hmmm:

Ok, I'll give that a try then. Mon, Tues /Wed off,/ Thurs Fri./ Sat, Sun off. It will help me from getting bored off my ass, I was worried 3 days off in a row would kill me.

Cool, thanks everyone for their 2 cents. I'm going to try something and see how it goes. I figure I can work out to 100% exhaustion and still give my body plenty of time to re-coup with this routine. I'm going to try this: Mondays : Bench, Stomach Tuesdays : Pull-ups, & Back Wed: Legs, Stomach...

Ok, I plan on adding the back, delts and traps. You think this type of workout will help me get stronger? Without coming close, or even touching the heavier weight I want to eventually get to? Id think some negatives would be good. Why do you say I cant max every time I lift? 3 days isnt enough...

Well, I tried something a little different tonight, I'll let you guys know how I think it works. Instead of what Ive been doing, I tried to stick with heavy weight. 135lbs 8 reps 185lbs 8 reps 205lbs 1 rep 225 fail, plus 2 negatives 215 1 rep plus 2 negatives 205lbs 2 reps plus 2-3 reps 185 6...

Will these improve my bench? What do you think about my chest routine? I was thinking less sets, less reps, more weight? Anyone wanna throw something out there?

No, on Tuesdays and Fridays I do Pulls-ups, bi's, tri's, and weighted dips. Sometimes shoulders if I have any energy left over. I forgot to mention, I have pretty much never in my life done weight training on my legs. I only run twice a week, usually on Wed, and Sun.

Ok, I???ve been working out hard for about a year now, and although I???ve seen lots of progress, its slowing down as of late. Now, I know your body adapts to routines, and you need to switch things up, but I'm such a hardheaded fool, I really don't want to change unless I know its going to...

I'm very much a newbie, but from what I've been reading, you need @ least 1 gram of protein per LB of body weight. I think the eating regimen is important though. From what I???ve read there is only so much your body can take in @ once, so maybe a 90 gram shake is too much in one sitting? Try to...

Can you expand on this? When you say unravels, what is the result if any of this?
