What's a working set and a warm set? I assume when when you go in till your body can't take no more and warm = just warming up?
Working set to failure lol the terminology is what always gets to me wtf is that
Tommy
10th October '11, 01:31 PM
Working set is at a proper weight. Start with a moderate weight to get the blood pumping and get used to form, then working set is all your effort weight. I believe Meyer does 6-8 reps (to failure), so that gives you an idea of what weight that ought to be at.

You had a weightlifting class? Subconscious preparation for jail...
Meyer's routine isn't something I'd recommend for beginners. Getting used to the proper compound exercises will get you the best results at first, then working into a full isolation workout, THEN trying something like that's the best route in my opinion.

Blood & Guts bro, Blood and Guts. It looks like a lot of rest, i didn't intentionally set my self a week off, and the routine doesn't say have a week off, It just works best for me. I wait until my whole body has recovered, usually takes a week, then go again.

Not worthy of a new thread but I need to know.
Developed some stretch marks under my arm/side of the pec area. Sign of gains, or just as a result of stretching the skin with flys?
ATB
12th October '11, 12:11 AM
Hehe, I reckon your skin would be ripping if flys were the reason of stretch marks on pecs. If your on creatine it could be water. Could be gains but if your on some bulk it could also be fat, so be careful. ;)

I've yet to get into proper bulking really, calories have been fairly standard, possibly slightly above. Seem to go down the side of my pec so I reckon it's from gains. Hope it's from gains. :P

I'm stuck with what to do right now.
Part of me thinks that cutting until Christmas then doing a bulk and cutting before Summer would produce the best results.
But I also think that because it's Christmas, I might aswell bulk until January then slowly cut until the Summer. Thoughts?

Yeah, start from next month, thats 6 months of bulking and leaves you plenty of time to cut. Dont cut slowly either, make sure you set a date and make sure you stick to it if you're serious. do cardio twice a day and cut the carbs and up the protein and you should be lean in 6 weeks.

No I meant bench as in flat bench press, nothing more nothing less. sometimes I warm up on a machine doing an overhead press or what not but more time just a warm up set on the bench and then bang out 4x4 and go home.
I'm not looking to gain size or spend hours in the gym so why would I bother with bicep curls, tricep dips and incline work?
I stopped squatting because my squat was much better than my bench and deadlift and I carry too much bulk there. When I bring my weight down and my lifts up, then ill throw that back into the mix.

No not really. If you want to swith it up do flat barbell, incline dumbbell and decline flye's, or vice versa. No piont in doing two exercises that are basically the same in the same position.
I would highly recomend weighted dips for chest strength though, noticed all my upper body weights go up since doing them.

legs are a big muscle group, without working them its like just skipping half of your body so they release a lot of hormones that help you get bigger
i'm thinking of a getting a bench at home, have absolutely no motivation to go to the gym in the winter, a 20minute walk there and back<<< , if I got enough weight (to have enough to do squats at home) and a bar, dumbell bars and an ez curl bar I should be able to do all of the necessary exercizes right?

I don't know how often you train but I would do something like this:
Lyle McDonald Bulking routine
Mon: Lower
Squat: 3-4X6-8/3′ (3-4 sets of 6-8 with a 3′ rest)
SLDL or leg curl: 3-4X6-8/3′
Leg press: 2-3X10-12/2′
Another leg curl: 2-3X10-12/2′
Calf raise: 3-4X6-8/3′
Seated calf: 2-3X10-12/2′
Tue: Upper
Flat bench: 3-4X6-8/3′
Row: 3-4X6-8/3′
Incline bench or shoulder press: 2-3X10-12/2′
Pulldown/chin: 2-3X10-12/2′
Triceps: 1-2X12-15/1.5′
Biceps: 1-2X12-15/1.5′
For the Thu/Fri workouts either repeat the first two or make some slight exercise substitutions. Can do deadlift/leg press combo on Thu, switch incline/pulldown to first exercises on upper body day. A lot depends on volume tolerance, if the above is too much, go to 2-3X6-8 and 1-2X10-12
Could do it 4x a week. Could also do it 3x a week and do it like this
monday: lower
wednesday: upper
friday: lower
monday: upper
wednesday: lower
friday: upper
etc
The number after "/" means the minutes you rest between each set.

If you're started off, try and do 5 sets of 5 reps on everything, do this for 2-3 months and you will see results and be able to lift more, then you can increase it to 5 sets of 8 reps
start off with a warm up set with a weight that you can lift easily, some people even do a warm up set with just the bar, it's just to get the hang of the exercise, do 5 reps with that, then increase the weight.. and keep doing 5 reps and increasing the weight until you have completed 5 sets, with 1 of those 5 sets being the warm up set
split your workout over the 4 days so you are not doing too much on each day, do chest and shoulders on 1 day, then legs on another day, etc
cardio before workout should only be about 10 minutes tbh
maybe another 10 minutes right at the end to warm down
most people do cardio on the days that they don't do weights, it's better because you can recover properly after weight training and you can do more cardio on the other days then you would if you did it after weights

lol how is any muscle more important than other? I'd understand if you were talking about shin muscle or something but comon... Chest and shoulders being the more important than legs and back? :D
Your right though, if your on 4+ day split, you should do shoulders separately from any other major muscle group. Even though it's a small muscle, you have 3 areas to hit which requires more sets than any other minor muscle group.

In terms of looks i would say they are both more important, just my opinion. I know models that only do back once every 2 weeks because they don't want to get wide.

Nah they're not really, they still work on their backs (n/h) but just not as much. Catwalk/Commercial models are not meant to be wide. Fitness models maybe.
Can't be fucking with job prospects.

To me, wings are the most important thing. I already had quite big arms and chest, but the key to looking wide is the lats.

Nothing worse looking than your back being too far ahead of your chest and shoulders.
Chest>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Shoulders>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Arms>>>>>>>>Abs>>>Legs>>>Back
For me anyway lol.

Agreed. You are a body builder like me. This is my program before when I want my body boost quickly but I used long bar not a dumbbells.

Trust ive seen bare people with a back that doesn't match up to the rest of their bodies, especially polish.
Fuck fitness modelling, you need some crazy dedication to do that and perfect dieting. Also like you said there aren't as many jobs out there and if there is they don't pay as much.

Looking to get fit again, my back injury I had seems to be gone (hopefully).
Gonna do jogging for cardio, bit of fartlek/interval training on a field near me.
Need more advice for the strength side of things. Still pretty strong, but not muscular, from my rugby days so am looking to build off of that.
Know the basic bits like push ups and the variations, push ups ect, also got a bar with 40kgs of weights and 2 dumbell bars that i will be looking to use as well as a bull worker from when I did rugby.
Anyone got any decent plans that can implement those bits? Or links to sites that will help me out, had a few bookmarked but lost them all when I got a virus.
