Guys,

I have the opinion that if you can develop the upper chest, the lower will follow. I am trying to square off my chest in the bottom middle, and am curious how much of that is related to genetics and how your muscles are shaped, or how much improvement can be made here, and how?

Thanks guys

Anybody tried this fat burner? My diet is right on point and I am hitting a plateau...what do you guys think of this stuff, anyone had any success with it?

So i have a buddy that is a martial artist and wants to get a caligraphy tattoo...anyone know the translation of julien greaux's tattoo on his leg?

Sorry for the non-fitness oriented question guys...

keep training!

Jamo,

Quick question- My workout partner and I have been trying something that he suggested that he used to do back in his competing days...Both of us want to bring up our rear delts, as they are not quite as developed as the front...so we wave been doing some light dumbbell and band work in between sets on chest, and back day, sometimes arms day as well, not working the muscle to failure, but just giving it a light workout between sets and pumping some blood in there and working it a little bit, then giving it a full workout on shoulders day....

So I have the latest progress pics after bustin a$$ on legs for about 4 months, and "bulking up" to about 228.

let me know what you guys think, it is the latest pic on my profile.

constructive criticism is MUCH appreciated.

I heard this asked about nick jones already....where is julien greaux?

Guy is ridiculous bro, lets get him back shooting for MFT ;)

Hi Guys! I hope training is going well!

Me and my buddy are looking for a few ways to step up our training for the spring....long story short, we started a pool at the office for 25 dollar entry, and over roughly three months, whoever loses the most body fat and gains the most lean muscle takes home the cash. Of course, we will be going to the university of utah to get tested for BF etc, tomorrow...

Try it out guys, it is a great way to motivate yourself to get in even better shape!

So I was working out legs yesterday with my new lifting partner, who is much stronger than I am, and we got to a sled-like leg press machine...after 3 other exercises.

So.....just had a thought. Powdered milk from what I understand is full of casein. If I dont want to spend the money on a casein protein supp(for before bed, say).....I would think that I can mix my when protein with powdered milk and bam! I have a nice casein shake.

What do you guys think?

Hey everybody...Havin' an awesome week, hope everyone else is as well...

So going though some of the leg workouts on here, I have discovered on a few of them, we are told to start with isolation movements on legs, such as leg curls, leg extensions, before moving to squats and leg presses, and other compound movements.

My first question is, what is the reason for this?

Second, I have been under the impression that it is most benificial on upper body to start with compound movements, then isolation later in the workout, such as bench presses on chest day, rows on back day, overhead press on shoulders, etc.

Well guys(and gals), The last month I have been on a "rotating carb" diet, where for 3 days I completely cut out carbs, and then on the 4th or 5th day I will have a day where I eat complex carbs...I have lost about 9 LBS and cut back a percent or two on body fat on this diet, but I do not see this being a great long term solution, as well as that I feel either like headaches for 3 or 4 days, or I am sleepy on carb day.

So I have some progress pics finally up in my profile...you guys would be awesome to let me know what you think...advice...ya know...?

Thanks a ton
