I would say if you have certain areas that are too big, then working them along with the lagging parts will keep that same gap in size. For example, lets say from 1-10 you rate your hamstrings a 2, and quads a 6. After doing exercises to increase mass in both areas, your hamstrings will become...

haha no. I wouldn't have minded if it was from a growth spurt, and my voice changed when i was 13(few months after my first "weight spurt"). I have been starting to get more facial hair, but i don't think that would cause thaty much of a weight increase. Unfortunately, i didn't take...

My apologies, here is some info i forgot to add. I am involved in x country, basketball, and lacrosse. basketball i play for fun consecutively and lacrosse and xcountry i have been on the school team for. The ideal look i would like to look like is probably Terrell Owens or the ever popular...

well as stated in the fibers thread, i am 15 5'6-5'7 and now about 138(started at 120) and have been lifting for a few months. after every lifting session i am sure to have 1 scoop(20 grams) of my 100% whey protein prowder. Although i have packed on a decent amount of weight, i don't really see...
