mm107, I'm in Iraq, bud, so we're always going to have a pretty good lag.
1) How old are you?
- 19.
2) What are your goals? Why are you doing this? I see posts mentioning looking good and posts mentioning strength. SOMETIMES, they are not mutual friends.
Goals: I want to look nice and athletic, the mens health cover look. I also lost alot of weight last year and alot of people fuck with me and call me a cokehead(wich i was in no way touching the shit) If you seen how lean i got after my fat pics(and my fat pics were 3 months into diet so i was fatter) then you would/might think the same thing. So i want to SHUT THEM ALL UP. I want to be able to be shirtless, and if someone calls me a juicehead i get to turn around now and ask them why they are joulous that my body is better then thiers, and be able to actually have girls(where i chill there are a ton haning out) be able to say yo, mike kills you. I know this seems selfish, but i want to be the best and look the best. BUT the best isnt what i see on the mag covers, the best is the BEST I CAN DO and thats why i push myself so hard. Its ok, i know streght and size might not be friends, but i want to be Core strong before i start worrying about my Size, i need to have a strong Back in life, not 20in biceps.
3) What in the world is up with your girlfriend not liking muscular legs? (You don't have to answer that one.)
Shes crazy lol, she doesnt mind really i just know since she puts up with my ass i try to still let her opinion count. She wouldnt be against them getting somewhat bigger, but she cant fit me for clothes by eye no more lol
4) Do you like your ribs dry or with sauce?
SAUCE BBQ BABY!
5) What's up with the clenbuterol? I have some on hand from last year(never got to use it because didnt need it),
figured it would help with the tighness look for the summer months. Ditch it? no problem if i really dont need it. I dont like to reply on outside supplements.
6) Please explain your reps and sets. For example, you show that you did deadlifts x 2, yesterday. Is that 2 reps or 2 sets? If it's 2 sets, how many reps did you do?
Ok, my reps/sets vary on esxcercise. I only post my Last SET. Sorry im gonna start typing out what i did to get to the last set.
DEADLIFT: 309LBS (3 20kg each side) x 2 W/ Correct form, On my Forth Set of Four i was able to get it up 2x. I went for 3, but just couldnt get it up.
So example. 150 x5 200x 5 280x5(but usually hit 4-5) 309x 2 (tried for 3 but only hit 2)
So i do do 4 sets per excercise. and about 3-4 excercises per muscle group.
Ex: Chest
Flat - 4 sets of 5
Incline - 4 sets of 7
Cable Crosses - 4 sets of 10
Flat Bench w/ Bands. 4 sets of 5 if heavy or 10 if light
Anything i can do to make it better. I really like getting exhausted/failure. Thats why i go heavy or go home. Im also bulking right now so the excess cals are buidling muscle. and i am getting stronger, so i figured go heavy as i possible can because when im cutting my streght wont increase as greatly and cutting i can hypertrophy training.
Thanks for any help Nelms!
Protobuilder, my weight now is up to 190. Droped 3lbs, or my home scale lied lol, but the gym scale told me 190 the other day.
BigTT, back work is what i really want to start getting strong at. I liked your advice and will incorporate more barbell rows. what olypic lifts ya talking about? Im gonna look into jump shrugs. Thanks for the Advice!
Thanks guys/gals for really helping me out
