Try a strength program (starting strength / stronglifts 5x5) if you wanna get your numbers up

anyways, what should I do if the front/left part of my left delt hurts a lil when I do any sort of press? I feel like it's preventing me from doing bench.. I can do a 65-70 dumbell press but I can barely do a single 45 bench press :S maybe its not my shoulder but another problem? please help! | i like to do
135 x 5
185 x 5
225 x 3
275 x 1
295 x 1
max x 1
85% 1RM to failure (4-5 reps)
75% 1RM for 10
back is fried next day and i increase the 1rm by 5lbs each day or more if im feeling good, i went from 265 x 3 to 285 x 2 to 315 x 2 to 320 x 1 in about 3 weeks with this method.
i do one back day with only those ^ no other back exercises (thickness) , next back day i do lots of rowing variations (width), so i deadlift about 8 or so days apart, thats whats works for me, give it a try, also buy chalk if u havent already ($5)

Mon: Shoulder/Arms

Opinions? Will doing 4-5 sets for arms do anything? | I honestly think overtraining with arms is really not a factor. I use to have my own bi day and own tri day(srs) and my arms were bigger than they are now. Right now I only do bis after back day and tris after chest day.

Arms can be trained 6-7 days a week easily. A good thing to do is a daily split. So full body in the morning, and arms that night. Posted via RS Mobile |

One way is to flex your wrist by pulling the hand backwards with your elbow. (going under the elbow and behind)
You can do this stretch anywhere, several times per day.

Question for you guys, had a discussion with a friend...
Is there a difference between clean calories and 'dirty' calories. I understand calories are calories and in order to lose weight you'll need to burn more than you consume. To bulk up you'll need to consume more than you burn off. But what if you just want to maintain and build lean muscle. Is eating 2000 calories of, protein shakes, whole wheat bread, tuna, eggs, chicken, vegs, rice, etc the same as eating mcdonald burgers equivalent to the same amount of calories?

first off i wouldn't recommend eating fast food all the time lol you may look healthy but your insides are gunna be fucked, stick with clean foods im sure it will be easy enough to maintain your weight by just looking in the mirror and on the scale and going from there eat lots of protein and few carbs

It's a hip hinge. If your starting position is a squat while attempting a deadlift, the bar will have to travel around your knees in order for the weight to come up; the bar should go in a straight path.
Just my two cents

When you're trying to bulk you have to eat as much as you can but you will always get better results from eating cleaner. I bulked once with the help of McD's (2000 cal meals every other day) and though it worked I felt like shit. I didn't know it at the time but I just did it again in the fall by eating all healthy stuff, cutting out excess sugar, and avoiding fast food. The result was an equal weight gain but more strength and more energy day to day.
After this I did some real research into fast food and I now avoid most of them like the plague. There is some seriously disgusting shit people put in their bodies from these places, McDonalds being the worst.
Did my 5x5 heavy squat, flat bench, and DL routine yesterday. Woke up today feeling like the stay puft marshmallow man |

Majority of the population , you will have greater results while eating clean where as some others like youtube.com/peterubish1 just eats beef for his protein and fucking candy and junk/pizza to fulfil rest of his calories..... Know how your body works

almost reached three plates, so happy
now its time to do them without the rack..
btw, are you supposed to do more sets on the rack than on a regular DL? Or should I just stick to doing my 4-6 reps on both?
