On Chest/Tri day, is the exercise Dips parallel bar dips or just bench dips? Parallel Bar dips would be a good exercise to add for your chest, it'd work your tris good too. Leg Routine (suggestion) Squat or Leg Press 3 x 5-8 reps Leg Extensions 2 x 8-10 Leg Curls 3 x 8-10 I'd normally...

Hello, I just talked to a friend who went on a ketogenic diet and he said he lost lots of fat in a short time. He just used a plain KD. I hear great things about CKD, I know about it, but I never have used it before. So I'm thinking that I'll start on it Monday. I did a search and I...

Doesn't taste all that good either :p

All I gotta say is that there's a lot of lactic acid surging through those muscles. ouch! I tip my hat to the people that do this kind of training. Gotta be 100% savage.

True Hardgainer If you are a true hardgainer (someone who doesn't respond well to any type of lifting), don't expect to gain muscle mass if you're doing cardio. I understand that you must maintain your endurance. It's good to lift for whatever reason. I recommend focusing more on mass during...

Any comments, opinions, advice? :-D

Could be a lot of things, Check your breathing. Do inhale going down and exhale going up? That's how I used to breathe when I squat. Used to get light headed and sometimes end up with headaches. Now I take 2-3 big breathes before I go down and I hold my breath as I lift. After I come up to...

Well it's very possible to tear you chest muscles. I know a few people that can no longer bench because they tore their muscles. I recommend laying off the chest a bit, until it feels better. Good thing is to get it checked to make sure nothing is seriously wrong. After that, try changing...

Sure, it's cardio. There's always a point to do cardio. I don't find anything different from doing cardio in the morning or in the afternoon, unless I do it on an empty stomach in the morning, or if I left that day. Haven't noticed any better results by running in the afternoon or in the morning.

Did you do anything different on your chest workout? More volume? More intensity than normal? How about your diet? Eating enough protein? Getting enough rest? :-p If it's not one of these that are causing the problem, then I'm clueless.

Similar problem. When I lefted a lot a few years ago, I neglected some exercises, because I never knew how important they were. I never did much shoulder work, because I figured that my benching would take care of it. I find that I'm having problems locking out the movement, because of my...

Good Post Good post indeed. Yep, it's sad to see that the staple of the kids' and young individual's diets are fast food, sugar, chips......etc When I was a bit younger, I used to spend the nights at friends' houses. I was amazed to see how much junk food they had and how their dinner was...

Dips I used to do decline presses and I was pretty strong at it. Lower chest improved a bit, but when I was just lifting for endurance all I did was dips/push ups, my lower chest improved a great deal. Dips are the way to go, use weight if it's too easy.
