[Arnold]

what is your goal?

 

[Scotty the Body]

Do you have any weight lifting experience or are you just starting?

 

[buff_tat2d_chic]

A bunch of the people here are very knowledgeable. Give them a run down on your stats, goals, experience and then LISTEN to them. They know what they are talking about.

Good luck!

Hard

But, what are the goals that you have in mind, that will help come up with a rep range/routine a bit better.

ditto to everyone above...

thx guys, anyways

i max out at 110 x 1 for bench, i really havent gotten anywhere else, cause i heard form was a big deal and i dont wanna mess myself up, but besides that i do curls with my tri's on the slant.

for goals, by mid april i would like to be able to hit 130 x 10, and rock hard abs but i do want to work out my legs but i dont want to do and where to start

i have a cage (weider xt75 pro) and i have a bench (weider xt20 pro)

help me

Ok, as far as training goes, keep things simple for now

For chest, do two pressing movements for 3 sets each and one Fly movement for 2 sets:
Incline press / Flies
Flat press / flies
Decline press / flies

For back, Rows, Pulldowns or pullups and Deadlifts
Pullups/pulldown
Seated or bent rows
Deadlifts (start light with these and get the form down)

Legs, learn to squat:
Squats (start light, you should be doing no less than 10-15 reps to start with)
Leg curls
Extensions
Calf raise (seated and standing)

Arms, BB curls, hammer curls, preacher curls for bi's / Close grip bench, skull crushers and pushdowns for tri's

Shoulders, Military press bent and straight lateral raise

I would use a 3 or 4 day a week routine, work each muscle once a week.

Check out the diary section to see what others your age and level are doing.

JUST KEEP IT SIMPLE!!!

Here's a good link to show you how things are done:

The protein and flax are good choices, the creatine is also good but only if you have the extra cash otherwise I wouldn't worry so much about that one.
Hows the rest of your diet? Are you getting enough protein and calories? Are you getting enough rest?
All are important to putting on some serious mass.

Best advice I can give is do all the reading you can, check out all the forums here as well as the main IM page, don't be afraid to ask questions even if they may seem "stupid" that why we're all here.

 

[quik^]

my sleeping habits suck (gonna chnage tonight) but what should my meals be each day, and remember im not allowed off campus for lunch

 

[Scotty the Body]

Try to get at least 6 meals if you can, stuff high in protein like tuna, chicken and eggs, if your activity level is high, make sure your getting enough calories to keep building.

Do some posting in the nutrition board if you want some more detailed help.

I gotta have REST ??? Oh, dammit! I am screwed
