Since it was taken a couple of months ago, I believe my statement was true.


;)

ugh.. fine then... :unsure: i can lift decent weight tho i guess... but that was taken around september..

Shiz 02-05-2003 11:12 PM

hmm...use 30's or 35's so you fail within 6-8 reps

fingersman 02-05-2003 11:36 PM

Like Shiz said if you want mass.....do basic and heavy. Try to do 6-8 reps ( like shiz said again)make sure that you feeling the burn after your done, lift that weight for a month or two or until your not feeling the burn like you use too and then increase the weight.

Careful now.....know your limits I wouldn't want you pulling a muscle.

You have a decent amount of muscle there, Mush...how old are you? *checks Mush's profile* son of a bitch, you're 3 days older than me.

Anyway, your friends are probably like ':eek:' because your muscles are defined (very low body fat percentage)

Are you just trying to make your arms bigger? Because if you build up your arms like mad and that's all, you'll start to look un-proportionate....like Popeye :p Try lifting a weight you can handle for 6-8 reps. (for me, it's 45 pounds) Do 3 sets a day, 4-5 days a week. By summer time, your arms will be huge.

I'll take a picture of myself when I'm done training (should be late spring, when I can get my digital camera back from my sister in University :mad:

Current Incline Bench Press Max: 180lbs (I work with 150/160)
Current Lying Arm Curl Max: 50 lbs (I work with 40/45)
Size of my Biceps: Approx. 16 inches

Ahh... now it's time to show my personal workout :)

I did it monday and yesterday (wednsday) and I will do it friday... of every week.

Weights(in order):
1. Seated Row (3 sets, 7 reps)
2. Squats (3 sets, 12 reps)
3. Bench Press (3 sets, 12 reps)
4. Shoulder Dumbell press (3 sets, 7 reps)
5. Leg extensions (3 sets, 7 reps)
6. Tricep pulldowns (3 sets, 7 reps)
7. Incline dumbell press (3 sets, 7 reps)
8. Leg Curls (3 sets, 7 reps)
9. Butterflies (3 sets, 7 reps)
10. Bar curls (2 sets, 10 reps)
11. Calf raises (3 sets, 12 reps)
12. Sit-ups (5 sets of 20 ~weighted~)
13. Tred Mill or bike (jog speed, 30 minutes)

Then I roll over and die ;)

Seriously, My arms and legs are so dead after this that I can't even drive... But eh, all in good fun.

I got my weight last night, I am 240 in this 6'3" frame.... I think it shall be back down to 230 in a week or less.

Mushlafa 02-06-2003 03:53 PM

I jus turned 16... and i dont think il look un proportianate.. ive been doin all my work out with at least 15 reps.. so if i decreas my reps and add weight to each workout il even out i guess :unsure:

Shiz 02-06-2003 04:06 PM

nah i dont think his body fat is super low or else he would see his abs. and Justin, thats one hell of a workout man, you did alot!

buuuut if u want my advice (which im sure u dont) u should not do that much. it seems like u were in the gym for over 2 hours lol

thats not really overtraining, but i bet you'd get fatigued because you had already worked out so long and that would make u do less weight.

Shiz 02-06-2003 04:06 PM

and man, 16 inches is one hell of an arm.what % bf?

Joeiss 02-06-2003 05:08 PM

My traps are killing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG


Oh well... My new mentality is that I should really work my ass off from now until the summer.... And even though I am in pain right now (good pain), I won't remember it in the summer. LOL. So there is no point in going easy on myself if it is just a small little fraction of my life.

Joeiss 02-06-2003 06:48 PM
