    If I'm sick my usual deciding factor is whether or not I'm contagious. If I'm not I'll usually suck it up and go to the gym, and I'll usually feel a lot better afterwards assuming the sickness isn't...

    Weight loss is a majority diet. Cardio will make a difference, but a relatively small one compared to diet. Also, you can't spot reduce fat.

    I'd do starting strength, you'll need a barbell for it though. Don't worry about bicep size till you weigh a lot more. The simple fact is that biceps are a relatively small muscle group, and won't...

    I started the same place as you (6'2" and 165). I'd recommend starting strength as well, but I'd also like to emphasize you need to eat a ton. Eat a lot of lean meats, rice, and veggies. Head over...

    I'm with mobikwa. I had my wisdom teeth out this past summer and I couldn't lift for ~a week. Even though I felt fine after the first day, lifting will increase blood pressure which can dislodge...

    Knees going in on Squats

    About a month ago I noticed my knees had started to go in towards each other when rising out of my squats. I figured some muscle was a bit weaker than it needed to be, and I had been using running...

    To me, broscience is always a bad thing, just by definition; there's just a negative connotation attached to it. That being said, I think people that could be considered "bros" can give very solid...

    Depends on your body currently and caloric needs. For example, when I go there, although not often, I get a few McDoubles. They aren't good for you, but they have a ton of calories and protein. ...

    I suppose it comes down to personal preference, but I wouldn't use any grips/straps, especially at your level (assuming your sig is recent). If you want any extra help, I'd try chalk; it's insanely...

    Just eat fewer calories than you burn, and eat healthy (using common sense). There's more to the science than calorie in vs calorie out, but for a lot of people that rough calculation still works...

    I don't know enough to give you a good answer, but I'm sure it's somewhat dependent on your body. I did this for a while, there would be a month span where I worked out every day. I did fine, but...

    The actual plan sounds pretty good. I'd start with only working out every other day since you're working the same muscle groups in A and B workouts.

    EDIT: Jason might be right about intermediate...

    Diet controls body size. If you want to bulk just make sure you're eating enough. If you want a good routine to go with it check the stickies.

    That would probably work fine, but I like something a bit different. I'd switch between chin ups and pull ups. I'd also add in bent over rows or power clean (if you do cleans make sure you have...

    If you're hamstrings aren't being developed from squats you just aren't going deep enough. That's a personal failure, not a failure of the exercise.

    You'll only get bigger if you eat enough, you'll gain some strength either way (to a certain point). If you're not getting stronger, look at other routines, but make sure you aren't just afraid of...

    I agree with what ThickAsABrick said about proportions not changing, but if you're still making good strength gains with the major compound lifts, I'd keep those up. I've found arms will nearly...

    I'd definitely do legs. There no amount of cardio in the world that can take the place of lifting for legs. I'm sure your legs have incredible endurance, but you need strength. I'd make sure to...

    I can't help much with the size issue unfortunately, but your shoulders may hurt from the full ROM because of improper form. I see a lot of people with a weak benching base, and had a weak one...
