Re: Training frequency, advice on new routine

"When trying to figure out how much training volume you should be doing to build muscle, it’s important to ensure that the amount of volume you are performing: 1. is sufficient to cause hypertrophic adaptations at a fast-enough rate 2. is not so much that it exceeds your recovery abilities 3. i...

Re: How to get a nicer butt? (female)

The primary function of the glutes is hip extension. With this in mind, as well as experience with clients, I like to recommend: 1. Rear lunges 2. RDLs 3. Hip thrusts 4. Squats 5. Any other exercise that involves hip extension through full ROM and can be safely loaded. Most importantly, use heavy en...

Latest study on high protein intakes (4 x RDA) and health

Hey everyone!

Apparently, Dr Jose Antonio published a study last month which used protein intakes of 2.5-3.3g per kg of bodyweight (3-4 times the RDA!) for a whole year!

Re: A fat burner that works when youre doing things right

Clenbuterol is not a supplement, it's a drug.

With regards to dietary supplements, there's practically nothing that has a meaningful impact on fat loss.

Remember, fat loss is the result of a sustained caloric deficit.

Re: Shoulder Impingement, need some advice please.

1. If it hurts, don't do it.
2. If it continues to hurt after a week of rest, see a professional (orthopedist or physiotherapist)
3. Be proactive - give this a read: http://muscleevo.net/save-your-shoulders/

Re: Muscle growth

There's a good guide here on how to set up each of the training variables for muscle growth.

There's also a sample workout at the end.

Re: Stagnant Progress

Maybe you are rushing to progress? As a general rule, try to increase weights only when you manage all the reps and sets with the current weight you are using. So if, for example, you bench for 3 sets of 8-10 reps, increase weight when in the previous workout you have managed to get 3 sets of 10 rep...

Re: Skinny fat

Resistance training is not contraindicated at your age, provided that:
a. you like going to the gym
b. your workouts are planned and supervised by a qualified professional

Nothing corrects skinny-fat like progressive resistance training, sufficient amount of calories and enough protein ;)

Re: Tips for Overcoming a Plateau

Congratulations, you are now an intermediate lifter, so you'll progress like one! :) 1. Make sure you are getting in enough calories and protein to grow - a surplus of 200-400 calories is ideal for most people, most of the time. I like to set protein at around 1g per pound of lean body mass. 2. If y...
