Dumbbell for more shoulder stability and isolated strength. You really want to develop both, but if you could only pick one, db chest press would work a greater range of muscle because of the...

What you're noticing is an increase in the muscle's glycogen stores (quick energy). That's actually where most "water weight" comes and goes from. It will go away slightly, but keep working the...

Creatine is used to help produce energy in the muscle while working out. It gives you (if anything) a small boost to endurance for those last few sets. It lets you get a slight amount more exercise...

The difference between "body building" vs "athletic training" is simply that you are doing more compound movements with athletic training than bodybuilding. Athletic training will better coordinate...

You're going to crash and burn - 1800-2000 calories is great if you're trying to lose weight, but you are burning through fat AND muscle with that much deficit and your workout volume.

Up the...

You can keep seeing gains every week, but it will vary from week to week. If you start to stall, change your routine up, change your diet, or both. You should generally switch things up every 4-6...

8/10 Good work on the arms and chest.

Great chest and arms 8/10

There are probably a few things going on. One is that your glycogen stores in your muscles have grown. Your lifting has increased your muscle's ability to utilize and store glycogen. This will pull...

Losing fat comes down to one major component: Calories in vs calories out. If you want to lose fat, eat less.

Every new fancy diet, keto/paleo/etc, has no special benefit to it other than it gets...

You're exactly right about that. The rows were also developing your lats. Here is a study that breaks down the two movements and looks at muscle activation from each movement. ...

I agree. Add abs to your leg days. If you're hitting a lot of volume on your lift days, 4-5 days a week is plenty. Get quality rest, good diet, high protein, and keep consistent! 6-pack abs, a huge...

I prefer one day heavy legs and a second day sprinting. It still gives me a great workout, good strength and size development in the legs, but also keeps me explosive.

I typically run a 4 days...

Diet.
Working out any one area doesn't do anything for the fat distribution there. Working that area out will actually cause the muscle to develop and start to grow; if diet isn't addressed then it...

First, why only squats? Where are your other leg exercises?
Second, why so many exercises all in one day?
Third, abs?

I totally get where you're coming from, you want to hit all the muscle...

Whenever you have to get it in, then do it. Getting and maintaining muscle is all about consistency. It doesn't matter if you lift at 3am or Noon, what matters is effort, consistency, rest, and diet....

The quick way to answer that is ask yourself "which feels harder?" If you're looking preserve or burn calories, intensity and effort will burn the most in every situation, whichever feels easiest is...

Dewadlifts, leg curls and straight leg deadlifts. For every quad exercise you do in your routine, do two hamstring exercise. Don't skip quads, just focus the other side more for a while.

I would say a good intro lift routine. Look into Starting Strength on google. When lifting, always remember, form first, then weight. Not the other way around.
