Thanks for all the tips guys, great help
The only other thing i was wondering is.. if i do deadlifts on the same days i work legs is it then ok to do squats aswell or will that be too much?

Hi, I've been working out for about 1-2years now and have made good progress, and I know the deadlift is a MUST in order to gain overall size and muscle mass, the only problem is when I perform it I find for the next couple of days it makes back and legs ache, so question is should I incorporate it ...

thanks for all the replies guys :D ! Swanso with reference to the push ups, not at all that i don't believe so please don't take any offence, but i thought to gain size and strength you do low reps. If this is the case then surely the push ups wouldn't help with size and strength as they would just ...

I really wouldn't worry about it, if you've just hit puberty or are going through it at the moment, you can have excess testosterone which is the growth hormone made by the body, if too much comes at once the body turns it into oestrogen, which people think primarily is the 'girl' hormone, which to ...

Hey i've been working out for 1-2years now and at first bench came on really well, but over the past year its been really slow. I mix it up, I have just completed this routine, which I did once a week in conjunction with biceps, and have been doing it for the past 4-6 weeks: Incline Bench Press, 4 s...

Hey, i've been working out for just over a year now, and bicep progress has always been slow, but recently it seems all progress has stopped, i usually change routine every 4-6weeks and have recently changed to new routine which is: A light set of barbell curls to warm up, 12 reps 3 sets of close gr...

You have to do cardio! cardio actually assists with muscle gains! you have to be doing large amounts of cardio e.g. 50mins a day everyday for it to actually be burning muscle. when doing cardio, first thing in the morning before eating it will burn fat. If you do cardio after eating it burns carbs....

Hi, i've been working out for just over a year now, gains have been slow but steady, and I was just wondering how much cardio should I be looking at whilst still trying to gain muscle? How long should I do cardio for? and How many times a week? and any other tips, I just don't want to lose any of th...

Hi, I've been working out for just over a year now and I have made gains, but they have been slow, I was wondering if anyone has any tips or information that can help me, specific exercises, and I need tips with the sets and reps range, and how many exercises to do on each muscle.

Thanks

Hi, I've been working out for just over a year now, and gains have been slow, but I am pleased with gains so far, the only thing is I have a thin layer of fat over abs, I was just wondering whether it's possible to get rid of it, maybe with some more cardio, but will this reduce muscle gains? thanks

Hey just to reply to your post, we are kind of in a similar situation I am 17 now, but wanted the same results as you when i was 16, for starters for a young teenager testosterone levels are fairly low so it will take alot more time than a older to build 'huge' muscles, so be patient, for you upper ...

Is this the best way to gain muscle mass?

I'd say diet is well balanced, complex carbs and high quality protein and whey, for cardio i do roughly 25mins of running 3 times a week, and for weights i do 3-4sets, 12 reps of a light weight, 10 with moderate and 8-10 of a heavy weight, then if i do a fourth set on more of the compound exercises ...

Hiya, i've been working out for just over a year now, and have been making slow progress, but it is still progress. I was just wondering which kind of reps and sets are the best, i've been doing exercises in this way, 12 reps of a light weight, 10 of a moderate weight and then 8-10 of a heavy weight...
