Body builders

yes i reguarly train in the gym - twice a week (sometimes more) : I think, if you do not go to the gym twice a week, you can not get bigger muscles.
Best is to go three or four times a week. But not more.

For example: monday, wednesday, friday (and sometimes sunday) -> that's the best.

And on every day, you train only one muscle, till it hurts! Then it grows! ^^

It is also important to eat GOOD things and no sweets and ice cream. lol

 

x2 to that! Aside from real food, ON is pretty much my number 1 choice as far as protein supplements ago....Then comes musclemilk.

 

Yeah that was one i recommended earlier, can anyone tell me what the other flavours are like though ive always stuck with the chocolate.

Might go with the choco mint or one of the others.

 

I have heard that choc mint and also cookie is really nice, Also heard good things about strawberry and banana

 

lol yea, I've only stuck with the chocolate and rocky road flavors also...Never go with ON's casein protein vanilla flavor tho, tastes pretty horrid. It has like a "plastic" taste to it, somewhat weird to explain.

 

I go to the gym a MINIMUM of 6 times a week, doesn't appear to be harming me

Every person is different, genetics, routine outside of the gym, diet, etc, etc.

 

Woah, congrats on the determination. Actually, I wish I could go a minimum of 6 times a week, I think my body would shut down after a few weeks. Plus I'd burn wayyy too many calories with my skinny boy, ferrari metabolism.

How much weight have you gained since you started? Have you always been quite big?

 

This time around I went from 280's or so, cut down to 220's-30's and now am about 270

If you are burning calories simply eat more

 

Heh, it's hard to stuff more than 4000 calories, every single day. Hard and expensive!

 

Myth The fastest way to build muscle is to do more reps with lighter weights.

Reality If you're looking to bulk up quickly, follow this general rule: Heavier resistance with fewer reps will build up your muscles faster. If you're just looking to shape up, however, doing more reps with lighter weights has benefits too, including improving your muscular endurance. ("Heavy" weights are those you can use for only eight reps or fewer. "Light" weights enable you to do 12 to 20 reps.) The best fitness plan includes a combination of both, to enhance strength and endurance. Another reason to do both: If you always lift the same amount of weight (light or heavy) for the same number of repetitions, your body will acclimate, and progress will be slow or nonexistent.

 

What's with the copy paste posts from out of nowhere?

 

huh? It came from yahoo. Myth busting

 

What 'myth' in this thread of recent posts were you busting?

A huge myth is also that any of those articles work for everyone

All bodies are different, what works for one may or may not work for another.

I agree a mix is key, switching it up, that's not news.

 

I am glad you agreed. Education is the key.

 

Ahh ok I'll randomly start copying and pasting items into this thread from around the web with no basis of what's going on, that way I can be like you.

 

huh? This is a bodybuilding thread started by Sohan a few months ago. The recent post have included workouts and types of foods.

 

If you are going to copy part of an article from somewhere else, please include the link to the original article, so we can read the rest of it if we are interested.

I have a question for you guys.

My current routine:

Day 1: Chest/Tris
Day 2: Bis/Back/Abs
Day 3: Legs
Day 4: Off

Now, recently I have been just throwing them in at random, but what day should I work my shoulders, delts, lats or traps? Make a 4th workout day possibly?

 

Hahaha... Sorry. I missed the link.
