If you're not new to it and know what you're talking about, then why post to the forum asking for advice?

Milk is awesome. It should never be cut :P

Really been helping me bulk!

Agreed.

Also, I find it useful to do the motion slowly, rather than just throwing yourself up and down as much as you can. You can feel the muscles working which is good and you are forced to...

I think it's quite normal not to see as dramatic a difference because you see yourself every day. A lot of it is just mental though. Take progress photos, that helps you notice! Also, if your lifts...

Eat more food, lift more weight.

Try working your triceps a bit more?

Ah well, you're fine. Crazy puritanical drinking laws for you :)

Just don't drink, lift and study.

Also, if you're from the UK, I feel your pain. Drinking is so deeply embedded in our culture.

If you want to get big then you have to make some sacrifices. Also, having a hangover is awful, no point in having one just to seem cool.

After having seen the recent dislike of the SS program, I'm wondering what people would recommend for a good mass workout?

Currently I'm doing the StrongLifts 5x5 program which I'm really...

Though of course, if you feel that your form is ok and you're fine with the weight, no need to drop it!

Pretty much what I thought, I'm avoiding the doctor! Cheers for the advice, repped :)

Hi all,

It's been about 3 months since I've been to the gym and I finally got back into it today. My knee has been giving me trouble for about 6 weeks now. Today, whilst I was squatting, my knee...

People just look surprised if I ever mention lifting. I hate being a skinny ***.

:p

I just started today, worth a shot :)

Hey guys,


I'm fairly sure a lot of us will continue to focus on bulking this summer and ignore "sexy summer abs" as I saw in a thread today.

My goal is to gain 20lb as quickly as I can and to...
