1. what is your goal?
2. what are your stats?
3. Supps?

[Superhoss]

my stats are:
age - 20
weight - 165
height - 5'6


my goal is to put on as much muscle mass as possible maybe get up to 210 lbs or so one day but stay fairly lean


the only supplements i take are t-bomb, nitro tech, and vitamin E


i gain weight fairly easy and could get up to 200 lbs in a couple of months if i totally neglected cardio but i would be majorly fat and out of shape.

i'm really just trying to work out a program i can do twice a week. i don't feel like i've done enough if i can't hit every muscle twice a week(besides legs).

i've been working out around 2 years so i have a fairly good idea of what i'm doing, however, i've never been able to tell when i'm overtraining. i think my body can handle that program but i figured i'd ask you guys for your opinions.

check out the article on Max-OT training here on BB.com by James Ciprianni. I had good results putting on mass from this program. If you want to put on weight you need to lift heavy, you don't need to lift so often

hope this helps
