I dont mind the time just want to make sure I am making progress and not just going to yo yo and be back where I started. I have been working out a good amount of time but stayed at the same calories for fear of not being lean since it took me awhile to get leaner. Then I thought I could...

Thanks I appreciate that. I am going to up the calories and make a run at it, I just wish I saw more gains like some of the other folks I see on this site. Makes me start to second guess if what I am doing is right.

True But I know I can gain Weight, I just have trouble making more of it muscle than fat. I went slow because of that issue but when I look at the pictures I see the fat, I see very little muscle. I have been stuck at 185lbs for 3 weeks because I am afraid to add any more calories. This is the...

Yep I have the same issue. Only time it looks ok for me is when I am very low body fat and even then its not ripped like I see some guys. I see some folks with big chests and if the rest of their body is big especially arms or shoulders, its looks really good. The thing is for me I will do...

3 days a week So Legs/back/Bis would get worked twice in one week and once the next. Vice Versa for Chest/Shoulders/Tris Next week Legs/back workout twice, chest/shoulder once Working with a power lifter who changes my workout every 5 weeks or so but an example would be the following...

OK I posted pictures before but know I have before and after. Gained 10lbs in 6 months doing mostly low volume power workouts with some higher rep work for curls, calves, etc. BEFORE 4 photos http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb1/topgun32/?action=view&current=VernonsMuscles009.jpg AFTER...

Thanks guys Incline bench seems to be a popular choice so I will go with that. Now would it best to keep it at a 45 degree angle or is that more like working shoulders twice if you are doing db shoulder presses as well?

What are your thoughts on not doing any chest at all? When I trained chest hard and my bf was higher it looked silly. I think I store almost all my fat in my stomach and chest and add any size to the chest along with the fat and its a bad look. If I could add some more size anywhere else it...

Thanks, I appreciate the kind words and I do appreciate any advice I can get. I have been lifting for awhile but obviously what I am doing needs work. For the time and effot I put into training and diet I feel like I should be stronger and have a better physique. I do eat a lot of protein and...

No all at the same time. I started leaner but lighter. 6 ft 175 up to 185lbs Pretty much a 3x5 routine 3 days a week focusing on the big lifts squats, deads, bench. Add in a few sets of curls and lateral raises along with chin ups and some rows.

Whats the best stretches for chest. My chest always looks big and soft even when I get to 10% body fat. I need more shape !!

Here is my routine for back and shoulders, I do mostly lower volume since I dont progress at all when I add more volume. I change exercises about every 5 weeks but here is what I am doing now Back 2 times over 3 weeks Bent Over Rows 4x8 Pullups 2 x AMAP Shoulders 2 times over 3 weeks DB...

Bulk up I know I ramble too much. The question is how to I best gain muscle and strength without having the bulk go to my chest and ideally gain as much width as possible? My chest takes over a lot of exercises and I have narrow shoulders. I also gain fat easy but I am very knowledgable about...

Didnt say I had it , I just want it. I see some folks and that just look great when they get bigger. The more weight they add, the better they look and then when they cut they look great. For me that is just not the case. My chest gets big and by it self thats not terrible but its more bulk...
