Anyone going to the Arnold this weekend? Starting to get really pumped!

That would be exciting! There is a natural BB comp here in April. I'm thinking god going for a look because I've never been to one.

LOL, awesome Spartan!!! For at least 2 days I had no idea that you were spartan. I just saw your pic and thought you were a new guy!

WEG, I wonder the same thing. I really do think that BB.com has to hold some accountability for the men out there that think they **** gold and can treat people any way they please.. Like it is some kind of right. I can't really go in there. It warps my sense of reality...

And then there is the perfection that floats around these forums and just becomes... expected. It's going to be a shock for those little bastards when they take a girl home, take off her clothes and she has pimples on her ass. Or that her breath stinks in the morning. Or she has hairy nipples.

Yeah, I know, didn't expect me to be so purdy
There are definitely a couple guys who go to my gym, think they're body builders (even though they're pretty skinny), and are absolutely miscers.
I knew for sure when I heard one of them say "inb4 I" something or another.

Oh, how I wish some little **** of a miscer went to my gym. I'd have so much fun.

I haven't done one of these -but it will definititely improve your lifts...

But may affect your bulk results and where you want to cut to...

This is my plan

Now > Sept 1 - Bulk
Sept 1 > Dec 1 - CUT like a butcher
Dec 1 > March 31 - 5x5 Stength program and re comp.
April 1> .... bulk again.

I have never been to an actual comp, just watched on youtube/tv. I really need to be a spectator!

How so, less hypertrophy?

[JVDTWG]

How so, less hypertrophy?

Essentially yes. Also majority of the 5x5 programs I have seen, only mainly concentrate on compound movements so you might miss alot of isolation excercises...


I know it is easy to get frustrated and want to switch gears, but consistency will get you where you want to go....

My advice sit down with a PT or Bodybuilder and write out a 12-week program that will get you to you goal and stick with that....

It's more trying to find something that won't aggravate my shoulders too much. I'm ok with pulling exercises and squats etc... bench seems ok if i'm careful. I think the flys and raises is what's killing them. I'm skipping arms/shoulder this week because of this.

[cowboybiker]

But I'm just a wk nazi mod

Aware

Back from the gym.
Squats, deads, OHP and rows

I dont plan on moving for the rest of the day

Try lowering the weight, doing higher reps and going slower on the movement (something like a 4,1,3 movment).

You can also try things like pause reps etc.

This is what I did for about 4 months with my shoulders as they are damaged as chit and by far my weakest body part...

I had to work late today, I get to leave in about ten minutes. Going back to the gym for a little bit of cardio. I'm terrified of how full it's going to be.

Mine was packed. I finished up with neutral grip chins because there were no free weights for curls.

But guess who did 30 w/g pull ups and 32 n/g chins in the same workout?!? Me! I guess I should be glad there were no free weights. Turned into a pretty workout.

WTG Penny!

I was walking around the mall one time and this guy was like "Dude are you going to the gun show?". I was like "There's one in the mall? sweet where is it? " He laughs cause he was talking about my arms. I felt like an idiot. I was seriously excited for a real gun show.
