Is this really the best workout for weight gains for skinny guys? I never seem to see many muscle size increases and usually get discouraged. Is there a better way to go for size or is this as good as it gets?

i wish the hell i had any use for 100 lb dumbbells right now

you can totally cut down on the amount of quad dominant work and throw in something for the hammies like SLDL's, hypers, or some leg curls.

This is the link to another strength/size program. Sounds pretty interesting. Wondering, if you had to choose between this or the linear 5x5, madcow version, which would you choose? Bodybuilding.com - Vince DelMonte - Defeat Skinny Genetics: The 1 + 1 Skinny Guy Transformation Program!

For the supplement work, just what it calls for. Maybe some shrugs or even pullups on Wednesday. And the curls, tri work and dips on friday. Other than that, nothing. If you're going to go balls to the wall, just keep it simple. I learned that much.

Not sure if its the way I'm lifting or what. I've gripped the bar in various places and still the same. It just seems when I'm doing the exercise, my shoulders are forcing me to quit before I want to. I'll probably just go back to the flat bench with incline db's. Just was wondering what other...

I'm having the same issues with my shoulders. I have to get them checked out, looking into where to go now.

Yeah when I had done the 5x5 I bought some microweights. ordered them online.

Yeah I have to second what dabuffguy just said.

One last thing. I've seen great things about Omega's Lipoflame and Lipostim3 products. And I myself have taken the Amplify02. I think you might be best off just buying this stack, lifting with a good routine, and doing cardio 5 times a week, no more than once per day. And eating a high...

A couple of things. 1. To the guy who said his knees are taking a pounding. Stop running so much and hop on the elliptical. Some studies show its a better workout, and it doesn't kill your knees. I'm not saying stop running. But switch it up every workout. You'll still see great results while...
