Hey guys, I've been told by many people that in order to start seeing changes in your body, such as more defined/ bigger biceps or chest, that it takes about 4 workouts until you start seeing results..... Is this true I say to myself... What do you guys think about that statement?

It also depends on what stage of the game you're in. If you haven't lifted anything more than a fork for the last 15 years, you'll get results fast. Your body is going to adapt to an increase in physical demand. If you've been lifting for a while, are cut and want to get bigger, it's going to take more to stress your body to produce results.

Whoever said that has never lifted in his life. That means if you go to the gym for 4 days (1 workout per day) then you will start to see results.. that's not even 1 work week!! You need to go 4-5 days per work and spend 45-60 minutes in the gym for at least 1-2 months before you start to see small results.
PS: Off topic.. is the rep system on this site a joke or what? Every single one of my posts I'm trying to help someone and I keep going into the red. Then I see people get rep'd every day for saying smart ass comments that aren't helpful at all. Not even really sure what rep is used for so idc, just saying.

Well, here is the best way to see changes, keep a workout log, I have mine with me every time I'm in the gym, and I record every set, rep, and amount of weight moved. By doing this, I can look back and see that I am now pushing up more weight than I was 2 weeks ago, so, changes are seen, as for growth, if your getting stronger, using the right rep range for hypertrophy, and eating right, you will be getting bigger, whether your seeing it or not.
