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...
