First the tricep question..
With french presses/tricep extentions/ect. do you leave your elbows flared out or keep them tukked in?

Breakfast
I'm never hungry in the morning.. is there anything I can do about that?

Hey myfittribe!

I was wondering if I could do deadlifts on my leg AND back day, (I do legs on wednesday and back on friday). Full deadlifts on leg day and just regular deadlifts on back day. Then I'll replace squatting for deadlifting on leg day.
Or will this be to less to time to recover?

Hello MFT,

I'm planning to start HIT training in a couple weeks. But I was just wondering about how to split such a routine.
Such as should you do back + bicep (because your bicep get's a sort of pre-exhausted when you do back anyway) or wil back + tricep be fine on 1 day as well? I was just thinking of this split:

Monday:
Back + triceps (if needed back+biceps)

Wednesday:
Quads + Hams + Calves

Friday:
Chest + biceps + shoulders (if needed Chest + triceps + shoulders)

Thank you!

Hey everyone

The past few weeks I have had allot of difficulty feeling my lats on the lat pulldown machine.
Then I came up with ( I'm sure it's not new but anyway) a sort of free weight version of the lat pulldown with straight arms, it goes like this:
Set yourself up as if you'll be doing a one arm dumbell row, but instead of pulling your elbow up kickback the dumbell (with your whole arm) backwards with your arm straight (not as in a kickback for triceps). Squeeze your lats and go back to the starting posistion.

Good luck!,

Patrick

Hey everyone.. i'm trying to gain weigt but i keap hanging around the 61kg (1,76m) ... me carbs are mostly over the 350grams and protein around 170g... I don't really look at fats because I don't gain fat anyway so I just eat food if it has allot of protein or carbs... I was just wondering if anyone could give me a sample diet to gain more weight.

Thanks,

Hey, I'm having a hard time with my arms... my biceps have a peak and all that's not the problem but my arms look skinny from the front. And when I do a relaxt pose it looks stupid.
I was wondering how to get more thickness in my arms

Thanks,

I have problems with my left inner bicep... my right is just fine but my left arm barely has a inner bicep.. and a front dubbel bicep pose just looks stupid..
Has anyone got any idea's for inner bicep exercises (preferably one wich you kan use one arm for)??
thanks,

I wasn't to satisfied with my symmetry and thought of a way to help myself get more symmetrical. I'm not sure if this is done before (I think it has) but I tried this for a couple weeks and noticed great improvements.

The way to do this is use a machine, a preacher curl machine for example. And say it's your left bicep that is smaller/less powerfull then your right bicep.

How many grams of carbs do you need for every kilogram/pound? And when is the best time to take them?
