You may think your form is right, but most probably its not. Take a video, see yourself and if possible post here. Or at least see some form related videos like "Dave Tate's six week bench press...

ok, the question was whether I should take creatine daily or does it suffice to take just on workout days? But from the posts, it seems that if somebody takes creatine for a month then the body gets...

I don't do creatine loading etc, so I am wondering whether its ok if I take it only before workouts and only on workout days? Should I also be taking on non-workout days??

I started at 10 inch arms.
Life is unfair.

Pretty much similar story. Very very weak, no social skills, never played sport, extremely low self-esteem etc.

I cannot give you much advice but this is what I have been doing for...

Any inputs on the dips? I try to stick my chest out, but the pain is there in few reps (not all).

When I do the dips, I feel it in my clavicle bones - as if I am stressing the bones instead of using my chest muscles. Also after the bench I don't feel anything in my pecs, sometimes I can feel it...
