if you're doing two chest workouts a week, i wouldnt go max effort on both of them. But if you do go heavy on both of them i would throw out the flyes, and do your dips with weight and shoot for...

[QUOTE=TrettinR;652602053]Not really. Going to failure every single set is (In my and many other peoples experiences) hard to recover from. I would say in any given workout I go to failure 0-2,...

sounds to me like over exertion. Generally you wont pull the same muscles on both sides of your body, so since the pain is in both sides i doubt thats it. Doing the 30 reps of chin up negatives is...

how long have you been lifting? If you are newer to lifting then this is easily an achievable goal, but if youve been lifting for a few years, then 65 pounds may be a bit much. Ive been lifting for...

thats basically general bodybuilding. Also called pyramiding

i try to remain as upright as possible when doing them. there are a type of shrugs called silverback shrugs though, where you lean over about 45 degrees give or take, and shrug straight up and...

looks okay. you could superset bent barbell rows with your bench presses. If i superset, i like to do movements that are directly opposing movements. Bench is pushing away from your sternum, bent...

i do cgbp and jm presses every week. i usually alternate pushdowns or one arm overhead extensions as a finisher, but i get better results with the heavy compound lifts for tris

i guess you could do barbell hack squats or zercher squats, but i think doing regular squats one or two reps short of failure would still be your best bet. Even if you cant go balls out, i would...

well protein after you lift is obviously beneficial whether your doing cardio or not, and it keeps me from being so hungry while im running, until i can eat afterwards.

if all you are doing is low intensity walking, then you should be fine. If my workout lasts over an hour, i'll usually drink 20 or 30 grams of protein in between my workout and cardio

My fav are JM presses and close grips. I do like reverse grip benches though, but i had never done them until about 6 months ago, so now i do them every 3rd or 4th workout. I hear you too OP about...

you should be fine as long as you keep the sets low like you have been. A lot of Olympic lifters train their lifts 5-7 days a week, and no one will dispute that those are the strongest mofo's in the...

monday: Legs
tuseday: rest
Wednesday: Chest, tris, shoulders
thursday: rest
Friday: Back, biceps
Sat and Sunday : rest

The reason i didnt use all 5 of your gym days as lifting days is...

if i were you i would spend about 4-6 months trying to gain weight before you try to cut. If you lose weight to make your abs stand out more now, your arms and shoulders will look even smaller. ...

you arent eating nearly enough. If all you are having in addition to your supplements is one chicken breast, salad, and water, you wont get very far. Dont use your protein shakes to replace meals,...

no such thing as a seated military press. But you should always have back support when doing any seated barbell or dumbbell presses, because you dont have the benefit of bending your knees to buffer...

ive tried these before, and it didnt bother my knees but it just felt awkward. basically you are holding the bar behind you as if to do a behind the back shrug but then you squat with it. If you...

I have had the same issue, I have patellofemoral syndrome. Its basically where your kneecap pinches the pateller tendon. The pain is aleviated when standing or walking because the tendon isnt being...

mostly because of the form people use. Many say it puts too much stress on the rotator cuff, but that is usually also because of the form used. if you have any existing shoulder problems, i wouldnt...
