I usually just go by feel when I up the weights, but when you first star this kind of program you will probably want to up the weight on at least 1 set every 1-2 weeks. Just make sure you keep track...

I also have an interest in competing, but I have heard that the criteria varies from contest to contest. I heard that in some contests more slender men are preferred, but in others men with a little...

I have been working out for a while and am looking to compete. I would like to have new friends too and I am happy to share advice/tips!

i had my labrum repaired back in oct of 2006. The best thing to do post-op is to just lay on your back in an inclined chair and do nothing lol. It took me several months to get close to full...
