    Testosterone Nation Article

    Was working out 5X a week, upper/lower splits (3 upper, 2 lower), basically just using 10RM loading with no progression. Switched up to GVT for a 6 week bulk, 3X a week, 1 workout per muscle group. Never done a volume workout program before, but I also like having every other day off for a...

    Adding Volume To Frequency

    Concerning a few of the recent study results I've read, it seems pure volume (less weight) is just as effective for hypertrophy as the 'typical' lifting programs.... So I'm doubling up my sets.... 3 and 4...and still doing upper/lower splits with maybe 80 to 90% my 10rm Sent from my SM-G935W8...

    So... This Is Me Currently

    I don't really wanna go by overall weight... But clearly another 5 or 7 lbs of fat would be good. Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk

    So... This Is Me Currently

    Never see many pics here, so I thought I'd put up a couple of where I'm at in my cut right now. Just about 168Lbs....need to lose a few more off the abs...particularly the lower abs. Going for a Ryan Reynolds type physique. :) Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk

    Reasonable To Expect 5lbs Muscle In 20lbs Bulk?

    I needed to consider it because for years I tried to accomplish muscle gain and fat loss at the same time, never doing a typical "bulk" before.... Last winter was the first time, so it was nice to know that I actually put on decent muscle. Even if it was just 5lbs LBM (but I did better than...

    Reasonable To Expect 5lbs Muscle In 20lbs Bulk?

    As I get closer to the fat % (based only on ab appearance), it looks like I'm closer to having put on 10lbs of LBM, not 5. Realistically, maybe 7 or 8Lbs. I'm good with that. Maybe not outstanding numbers, but appearance wise, looks good! I wouldn't expect more being 46 years old. When I said...

    Liss for sure, now that the nicer weather is upon us. The dog will appreciate it as well. Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk

    When To Know You're Over Training...?

    Currently cutting, so I've dropped my volume down.... Just 2 sets of presses now, but trying to keep the weight high. It's amazing how much food calories makes a difference in strength and stamina! I'm doing a circuit-type exercise plan to keep my HR up and burn a few more fat cells... Sent...

    When To Know You're Over Training...?

    So, during my bulking over the winter, I was doing 4 sets of bench presses as my core chest exercise every other day (3 times a week). Also 1 or 2 sets of dips and alternately 1 or 2 sets of inclined flies. So I've noticed good growth on my pecs compared to all my other muscle groups (except...

    Cutting Complaints.... Ugh,

    I did an SD at maintenance, yes... Probably just fluctuations... Scales are showing a bit of loss now.:)

    Cutting Complaints.... Ugh,

    Gotta hate it when you drop 1000 kcal daily, and you don't lose an ounce of weight in your first week!

    How Can I Tweak Hst To Focus More On Lats, Shoulders And Obliques?

    This early in the game, skip the single joint work. I'd maybe do 1 set pull downs or weighted pullups, and do some HEAVY row sets, barbell or one arm dumbbell. I'd also do a set or 2 of barbell shrugs.

    Reasonable To Expect 5lbs Muscle In 20lbs Bulk?

    Actually, closer to 25lbs than 20...over a period of approximately 5 months, a fairly dirty bulk (500 to 700 kcal over maintenance, daily)... I'm hoping for 5lbs of muscle (my cut therefore will be closer to 15 or 20lbs)
