Drink more beer. It will get bigger.

Ditch the pushups.

Start lifting heavy and eating more and your muscles will get bigger. It's really that simple.

Why do people think that just exercising will "tone" your muscles?

I think "tone" is the most mis-used term when it comes to exercise. I think being "tone" is a matter of being lean and having...

Yea, I get the same ****, people saying I look like a skin head and what not. It also doesn't help that I'm really, really white. Just ignore it.

How are we supposed to answer this without knowing what your split is like?

Squat in the squat rack with the safety pins set to the correct depth. You don't need to squat "deep down to the ground". Squat so your hip joint drops below parallel with the top of your knee. If...

It isn't going to harm any if his diet is solid either. It's called a cheat meal and it isn't like having one every now and then is going to make a difference.

Personal Trainers are for lazy ****s. Plain and simple.
