Make sure you're eating...is you're upper body gaining?

I guess I'm a bodybuilder who cares about strength too. I don't want to be all show and no go.

HIIT is great because it catobolism won't occur.

My friend received this. D-bol on left, nolva on right. Notice how the D-bols aren't all the same color. Also, my friend was told that the d-bols are 50mg tabs, even though 5mg tabs look bigger. :verygood: http://www.auburn.edu/~doddjom/dianb.jpg

My shoulders have always hurt a little during weighed dips, but now it's pretty bad. I could probably do my sets and handle the pain, but it's not worth the risk anymore. I'm doing sets with 115-135 hanging on me at a bodyweight of 215, so it's a good amount of stress on my shoulders. Am I...

I was told by a respectable bodybuilder I know to use higher reps. I've been doing 5x5 for squats, and he said the low reps won't grow. I believe in progressive overload. But does it work for legs? Here is the routine he sent me. You're not going to want to hear this because you're stuck on...

I do back/tris and chest/bis...I like my arms to be fresh when I train them...:)

Dumbbell shrugs worked great...I didn't start working traps until about 6 months ago. Now I have a fat strech mark on each of my traps. :)

Our college is building a new rec center, it will be open this fall, with all new equipment, so I'll be taking my 120s, yea. They cost $55 each! Worth it to me though, I use them for bench, rows, and shrugs. And heck, they're still too light for all those lifts... Thankyou, but I'm not sure...

No, I'm a sophomore in college. I'll be 20 years old in a month an a half... I'm not that big, 210 at 6'1", 17" arms. I can rep 310 x 5 on barbell bench, max is 350. I'm pretty strong for my size, I train for strength, any size is just a bonus for me...and I do want to get to 240 one day...

So how much do you flat bench? :)

Thanks, I never feel strong enough, not I feel like 120 is too weak for dumbbell press. I like to alternate each week with dumbbell and barbell, but since I don't want to tape the weight on, my idea is to do it like this: Week 1: Barbell day, start with flat, do incline 2nd Week 2: Dumbbell...

My school gym only has 120lb dumbbells (which I bought) and they're not heavy enough for me anymore in dumbbell press...so, I brought a roll of duct tape (a couple people on this site suggested duct tape) and taped a 5 pound plate on each side of the 120s...I did a shitty job though. My first...

He should be banned. ;)

I use chalk for deadlifts, it makes a big difference. Basically just prevents the bar from slipping, since my hands get kinda sweaty. I use chalk for pulldowns, and dumbbell rows as well.
