Gonna get huge

[ken]

Buying a weight set with a bench with leg lift, barble,dumbells 40lb ajustable, and like 100 lbs for the bench to keep me busy for now. My new diet is going to be nice nothing but low sugar fruits,raw and steamed veggies,chciken,turkey, seafood, protien shakes and nuts. I was also thinking of getting a thing of NO xplode anyone have any experience with it and what is it like?

[Calli]

You've got great motivation, good on you, and I hope you reach your goals. Make sure to take photos every month, so you can see how far you have progressed. I would wish you luck, but there's no luck involved, just hard work and dedication!

Once I get home and shit I should take some pics my goal is to be in decent shape by the end of january when I start a new school. I should have my plan and shit with some pics within the next week or too I'm going to go on a colon cleanse and a detox for a week or two I heared its supposed to help a bit.

[cork]

Oh yeah, the new school man! Yeah. Real quick, what image are you trying to put across? Are you going to be in sports?

[Andrew]

yeah dude ive been doing the same thing recently. My whole family eats really well, so thats not a problem. What you need to make sure you do is once you get on a good diet plan is to STAY ON IT. I had like five fries out with my friends once and WANTED TO DIE. Even though it wasnt much, my body got used to the healthy stuff and the fat and grease through it for a loop. wont make that mistake again xD

I suggest Myoplex for protein drinks

[ken]

Yeah I finally noticed that greases makes me sick. Yeah I always had a sort of cocky and funny attiude since I was a kid and I figured why not go for the one two punch by fallowing it up with a sexy body. I also might play football next fall and maybe golf baseball in the spring even though its been like 5 years since I last played.

Hey Ken, I'm currently in the process of getting "big" too. I don't know too much about No Xplode (I should probably research it some, I have a bottle of it in my cabinet xD) although what I can tell you is that you need protein shakes. Just drink that before your workouts and as soon as your done. I would say hold from the cardio if you're trying to gain weight fast but I've started doing football drills and shit and I haven't noticed any loss of weight so I would say just make sure if you do cardio you get that much more calories. I take protein bars and sometimes peanut butter jelly sandwiches to school and that seems to be working pretty well for me. Good luck.

Sweet man. Do you have access to a squat rack? Squatting is very necessary. Don't neglect deadlifts either.

I would reccomend the Westside for Skinny Bastards routine which I'm doing now, it can be found here:
www.defrancostraining.com/articles.html

Or Mark Rippetoes Starting Strength which can be found here:
forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=712752

Or just a push/pull split meaning you do Back/Biceps/Legs one day then Tri/Chest/Shoulders another.

How many times a week do you plan to workout? If you need any help with your split let me know.

I'm getting one of those balls for squats to build up my legs plus the leg lift thing on the bench I'm getting. I'm already "huge" I just need to tone up the muscle I have and gain some more and then burn off the 10 to 20 extra pounds of fat on my body.

[Calli]

A word of warning on squats and deadlifts; TECHNIQUE is extremely important, check out exrx.net to make sure you are doing it right, because if you have bad technique you can end up with nasty back problems.

[ken]

Yeah I got shit covered.

[Alek]

have an actual work out plan too, dont just do shit. Like when i lift Ill do shoulders and arms one day, chest and back another. Dont be like the some of the idiots in the gym that just do what ever looks good. lol

[ken]

Well after about 90 mins I got everything set up I'm mainly goint to be working on my chest since its less developed compared to the rest of my muscles. I got a decent routine off the internets I'm going to be working out 7 days a week since I like to abuse my self when it comes to improvement. It should take me a few days to figure out what weight will give me the best results, something thats hard to lift but tolerable enough to be able to do something like 10 sets of 10 reps. I hope to add more weight each week or so.

[Alek]

Ok well im telling you now, if you do 10 sets of 10 reps, your going to be doing VERY LOW WEIGHT. Thats not realistic lol. If you want to bulk up, you want to do higher weight, lower reps. So for ex: 3 sets of 4 reps.

If you want to get more toned, you do more reps, less weight. So 3 sets of 10 reps. Do not work the same muscle 2 days in a row either, you can hurt yourself and actually degress lol.

Like I said, one day: chest and back, other day shoulders and arms. Just figure out different work outs for them, write em down and do that.
