    They're called deadlifts for a reason. The weight is dead when you lift it. A lot of people, and this sounds like what you're doing, bounce the weight off the floor. I'm not necessarily talking...

    If you eat right, learn how to lift and do it consistently with dedication and discipline, I can see that transformation being possible within a half year to year.

    You'll have to shave the landing...

    You don't really need the cardio to lose fat and gain muscle. Although it could be good for your cardiovascular health.

    You could try calorie cycling. Eat under maintenance some days, over...

    It's not THAT surprising, it's a 12.5% increase in weight. A 5 pound difference at that weight will have a greater effect than say 100 to 105.

    Perhaps your muscular endurance isn't that good...

    You'd probably have to be incredibly short for your genetic limit on size to be 155 pounds. But we're all individuals, so perhaps you indeed are at your limit.

    What methods have you tried that...

    You don't need to split them up, cardio is fine on days when you strength train. I do prefer to split them up though, that way I stay active on more days, otherwise I have a tendency to just dick...

    You can't be serious....

    191 sets per week? Only one day of rest? Over 30 sets per workout??

    I do a max of probably 30 sets a week total and still experience good progress/growth after...

    Just because you feel it is not enough doesn't mean it really isn't enough. I work out twice a week, with very high intensity. Even though I feel like that isn't enough, and I should be going like...

    I can't do these either, however, I don't train them. Give me or anyone else enough time to practice and we could. I don't do them because my current routine is working well enough for me, plus, I...

    Not necessarily. It can change depending on the direction of movement. Bicep curls, lateral raises, skullcrushers, just to name a few. When the movement is horizontal, the resistance is a lot less...

    I don't think it's necessary, all I do for chest is dips and incline bench. I've had better gains with less exercises than when I used to do incline, flat, decline, then flyes...however that is...

    I usually hear intensity defined in a different context: how close to failure you end the set at. The closer to complete muscular failure, the more intense...i.e. concentric failure, isometric...

    Great and best answer up above. Also, temperature can have an effect, such as them being more pronounced when it is warmer. And then the obvious; body fat. The leaner you are, the greater your...

    Additionally, the range of motion is greater for the lats with a closer grip. You can start with a greater stretch and pull it in further.

    I've always done incline before flat or decline. I've wanted to concentrate on upper portion of the chest, so I always do it first when I'm freshest.

    There are plenty of people with ridges in their abs that are not aligned evenly. Nothing you can do about it. Just train them and make them look as good as you possibly can.

    1. Shoulder width chin ups - love the huge range of motion from a dead hang to getting the chin above the bar
    2. Deadlifts/rack pulls - Really enjoy lifting large poundages off the floor

    Is this a joke?

    Eat less calories than your body expends, you will shed bodyfat. Do you really not understand that?

    90 seconds isn't really enough rest in between sets of big compounds unless they're supposed to be an easy set of 10, stopping well short of failure. You'll be shortchanging your strength gains with...
