Every other week, at the end of leg day, I push my car 1/4 mile while my training partner steers. Then turn it an come back. It has done wonders for my hams and calves. Plus, sets of standing calf raises twice a week and my calves aren't lagging as much as they used to.

^^Agreed.^^ There's an awful lot of negativity in this thread. This thread is for smiles...and whores.

Don't complicate it man. Protein- Chicken, Fish, Beef, Eggs, Greek Yogurt Carbs- Green veggies, sweet potatoes, oats, brown rice, bananas Fats- Peanut butter (also fulfills protein requirements), olive oil, nuts, soy milk, tofu Do not fill your calories with garbage! It defeats the purpose...

In to see how this works out for ya. I'm rounding up all my Hella fixuns now.

I don't know you Wulfgar, but you sound like a vile person. My kind of people!

Just keep working out man. You're complicating this. Go get a full body routine. Start googling. It takes research to find what is gonna be for you. And if you wanna be better at Pullups...just keep attempting them. A couple times a week, close your workout and give em a go.

No...you CAN do Pullups. You may not be good at them, but you can build. I used to be able to do 1, maybe two, at first, but these days, I have no problem banging out 15-20 per set. It takes practice and diligence. Don't shy away from something just because you aren't good at it.

I sure hope so. Cuz this shit is ridiculous.

"I just started going to the gym" and "I want to get big in a short time." ^^You're serious? Eat right, train hard, and results will come OVER TIME.^^ There isn't one person here that's gonna tell you steroids are a solution. If you aren't willing to put in time, dedication, and effort, then...

Determine what maintenance is, and then eat 500cal over that. Remember that... Protein- 7cal = 1gram Fat- 4cal = 1gram Carbs- 4cal = 1gram So if 3,500cal is goal... @ 50%P, 20%F, 30%C 250g P, 100g F, 150C ^^that' just an example of how to do a breakdown and track your exact figures.^^...

^^this is the ticket^^ I also have sweet potato powder for my carb source in addition to just using oats. It's cheaper and easy to adjust to precisely what your goals are. Keep that sugar low, and experiment.

First off, what are your goals? Are you trying to gain or lose? Second, I'll ask the same question I ask everyone else when it comes to diet. What are your daily macros? What is the caloric number? Protein? Fat? Carbs? ^^on that last note, I find that most people are just guesstimating, and...

When I was low carb, I abandoned sauces altogether. In their place, spices became my friends. I have a cabinet full of dry rubs and tasty powders. Just watch the sodium on those. Tons of options tho. Oxy is right. You need carbs. Green veggies and sweet potatoes are great carb sources. Start...

I feel you aren't eating enough. Four meals a day is not enough to sustain me personally while lifting. I think my body would go into store mode. Why no chicken? Why all steak? Why so many eggs? (not that eggs are a bad thing...just looking for your rationale) Ever think of adding things like...

My lady is getting me all the fixuns for my first cycle. She asked me what I wanted for my bday (I'll be 30 on Aug 9th) and I had no idea. I said, "You could get me my Hella cycle." Completely joking of course. She said, "Sure, that could be part of it. Other than food, me, your kids, guitars...
