Hmmmmm. I don't get it are you saying to do the exact same workout 6 days a week. I thought with a 6 day a week programe you fluctuated between an (a) upperbody and (b) lowerbody routine. Stack

Death dance - I find the same thing -- your too fat, your too muscular... you are focusing on this weightlifting too much.. you need to workout more. You are too thin. Is all this protein good for you......... I think people don't know how to react to weightlifting... That is why I started the...

I used to not eat enough and that limited my gains. I say bulk and stop when you get too fat. Since each of us are different --- there are only general principals and no specific rules. But bulk till you think your are fat enough and then cut. Fear of getting to fat will keep you from eating...

EV, Regarding Dips. First there are two kinds of dips that are very different. Dips for chest and Dips for tris. They "look" basically the same --but the difference is where your weight is ------lean forward you hit the chest --- lean back you hit the tris. Yeah!!! you can do the...

I have read "moringing wood" is a good indication of "T" levels. The more lumber the more often means "T" is high. It is just difficult to pee in the bowl. Bob

Less is more. Overtraining is probably the biggest mistake guys make when attempting to gain mass. Followed by under-eating. The overtraining mistake is most often made by guys in their teens and 20ies. It is not that guys in their 30 on are smarter - it is just that they overtrained and...

Research shows that am/pm 3 x a week is better than 6 days a week.

A few comments. 1) You are not a twig. You have a great build at 19. Just keep it up. 2) Wow are you organized. very impressive. But remember -- though it is great getting to this level of detail -- remember the big picture. Getting a good 6 workouts a week and eating correctly is what works...

Yes "burn sets" are recomended by Bryan, Vicious et al. for your 5s and post 5s. but you don't need to do them after each excersise --just for each muscle group. So say for chest do a heavy set of 5s on incline, then a heavy set of 5s on dips Then do a burn set. This gives you metaboic...

I agree with grip strength I find talking is the biggest time eater. Sure you can through around one liners -- but "chats" really add to the time. and you have to avoid those people. :confused: bob

Well, I am a recovering over trainer. I used to got for 2 hours/5 x a week (years back) Now 45m to 1:15 when I train once a day --more like 45 & 30 min when I go twice a day. I find what makes work outs longer are the "burn sets" in the 5s and negs. Maybe I am still overdoing...

O&G got in a spat a few weeks ago and left. I miss him. Young guys over estimate the effect of age. I know guys who are very very impressive in their 40s, 50s and yes 60s I know one guy who is huge in his 70s. Really. What guys in their 20s don't realize is guys in their 40s have an extra...

Rain & Jester, Rain -- I did not do deads durring that period. Though If I had it to do over again I would have. That was 2.5 years ago and I did not quite have the "religion" yet regarding deads. Also my lower back can act up so some times I have to lay off the deads --even when...

Hey clothes not fitting is a good thing. But back to the "are leg exercises necessary?" question. Short answers "no" But compound "leg" exercises really really help your upper body. Squats, straight leg deads, and maybe most of all dead lifts hit the back and...

I am all for extending ones heavy micro cycle as long as possible. An extended and wonderfully painful negs cycle is what i attempt to do. What worries me about funguys approach is not that he wants to extend his last cycle -- but rather he is cutting out 15s and negs -- so his second cycle is...

6 weeks of 5s could be a little tricky.  The idea is to keep increasing the load (progression)  with 10s, 5s, and negs  you have progression over 6 weeks.  6 weeks of 5s it will be difficult to keep progressing. NO! Do not do a two week cycle of 5s and then repeat it 3 times  If you did this...

O & G sayit ain't so. I really really enjoy your thoughts and wisdom. How about giving it a rest for a few weeks and then re-enter? Think of it a strategic deconditioning. Bob

Es ist mir nicht 100% Klar was deine frage ist. Aber was du machen solts ist... Follow the instructions on the site. Do a pure "vanilla" or (normal) HST for one cylce. 1) find your maximum weights for each rep range 2) Do 10 days of SD ( dass heist keine uben oder keine gewicht...
