Date: February 4th, 2008 10:53 PM Author: glassy geriatric property friendly grandma its definitely stable, like when i first started working out...the bar would shake constantly, but now i keep it straight during the motion...its just the fucking weight pwns the fuck out of me so fast. my friend went from 15 (flat) to 25 (incline, so prob more like 30-35 on flat!!!) in just a week, i was so surprised (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=759830&forum_id=2#9271686) |

Date: February 4th, 2008 11:34 PM Author: mewling indecent black woman blood rage don't worry about arms/abs. track your progress with leg and back development. squat and powerlift make up ~80% of what you need and the growth potential for legs and back are just huge compared to arms/chest/abs.
base your lifts off your deadlift: deadlift = X lbs, squat = .70 X lbs, bench = .55 X.
so if you deadlift 100 lbs, squat 70, and bench 55. your body mechanics will have their own unique balance, but this is a good baseline for most people, try to stay within it. keep making gains on the deadlift to bring up your other two big lifts and row at least what you are benching.

Date: February 4th, 2008 11:05 PM Author: swashbuckling hairy legs mood holy shit you're small.
1) don't worry about eating clean at this point. just throw down calories: whoppers, fries, iced cream. shove in the calories.
2) take creatine and l-glutamine
3) 5 day weightlifting split, 5 minutes cardio warmup only
M-chest T-back W-legs TH-shoulders F-arms
alternate calves and abs every day. |

Date: February 4th, 2008 11:12 PM Author: glassy geriatric property friendly grandma trust me dude, i dont eat clean for shit. i've pretty much been eating mcdonalds and wendys for 2 months straight now. literally, bfast (sometimes), lunch, dinner. i also eat beef goulash when i get sick of fast food. i eat whatever else i can get my hands on in addition to the stuff i mentioned.
hmm. my current routine is M - push, W - pull, F - legs
i might try your routine though, it seems to have a greater gain potential |
|
Date: February 4th, 2008 11:14 PM Author: swashbuckling hairy legs mood it does. but it's more effective and you don't have to worry about overtraining for at least a month; just watch the weights, eat like a madman, and overload the creatine (your kidneys are fine, it takes years of overdosing [10+ creatine servings daily] before you'll have nephrological problems.

Date: February 4th, 2008 11:23 PM Author: mewling indecent black woman blood rage i disagree 100% with everything here.
not eating clean is a STUPID idea. you can't force feed the body to gain muscle. but you CAN gain a lot of fat! also, you can develop bad eating habits and fuck up your health. under OPTIMAL conditions, he will likely be able to gain only 1-5lbs of muscle PER MONTH.
body splits are also POINTLESS. if you weigh 150 at 5' 10", please tell me why the FUCK you would have an "arms" day? you are an idiot.
you should be doing compound lifts only. 3 days/week, with LOTS OF REST. try something like this:
Monday 1: Squat 3x5 Bench Press 3x5 Deadlift 1x5 Chin Up 3xRM
Wednesday 1: Squat 3x5 Press 3x5 Power Clean 5x3 Weighted Crunches 3x8
Friday 1: Squat 3x5 Bench Press 3x5 Deadlift 1x5 Wide Grip Pull Ups 3xRM
Monday 2: Squat 3x5 Press 3x5 Power Clean 5x3 Chin Up 3xRM
Wednesday 2: Squat 3x5 Bench Press 3x5 Deadlift 1x5 Weighted Crunches 3x8
Friday 2: Squat 3x5 Press 3x5 Power Clean 5x3 Wide Grip Pull Ups 3xRM
if you can't do power cleans, use pendlay rows at 3x5 instead.

Date: February 4th, 2008 11:31 PM Author: swashbuckling hairy legs mood he can eat better after he gains strength/weight
yeah, squats and bench on the same day with deads in b/w is great advice.
he can have an arm day. it's basically active rest at this point but it helps support his larger upperbody muscles
my plan for him is good for 2 mos where he should gain roughly 25 lbs. |
|
Date: February 4th, 2008 11:42 PM Author: mewling indecent black woman blood rage i about piss myself every time i see a string bean hitting the preacher curl.
if you can go up on all your other lifts, your arms will get big. chin ups use bi's enough.
when it comes to weight training, what seperates the men from the boys is a BIG FUCKING BACK. |

Date: February 4th, 2008 11:45 PM Author: swashbuckling hairy legs mood dude i've been lifting for over 15 yrs. when i started, freshman yr of hs, i was skinny (6'0'', 165lbs). i basically ate everything and did a 5 day split. i got results.
now, i lift 4 days a week, eat cleaner, but i'm not looking to get bigger, just maintain my physique. i also do maybe 75% freeweights and universal type equipment and cables for the rest, versus only using freeweights in hs and college. |

Date: February 5th, 2008 12:02 AM Author: mewling indecent black woman blood rage what is your point? of course there are people who have gotten huge doing splits. does that mean it is better? i don't want to argue, i've been through this discussion too many times.
here's a good read, 3 experts discuss total body training (TBT) vs splits from t-nation.com (a good site):

|
Date: February 4th, 2008 11:37 PM Author: mewling indecent black woman blood rage if you're a pussy.
the idea behind weight training is to increase the amount of work your body can handle. 3 days of 3x5 squats is NOT excessive by any means.
i asked my legs, they are huge and they love 3x/wk. it's hard to keep myself from squatting on the weekends. |

Date: February 4th, 2008 11:53 PM Author: mewling indecent black woman blood rage whatever works for you.
point is, 3 days/week of squats is not over training. it might be hard at first if you aren't use to it, but they learn fast. |
