Hey hi, Im wondering if i could do other exercises that are better than the ones im doing now for a few muscles, for abs, im doing crunchs on a pressure machine, and im also doing sit ups on a inclined bench. What exercise can i do that would work my abs more efficiently, Also is it true that...

Well, i was able to gain muscle without fat and even maybe losing some fat, i went from 137 to 154 in about 8 months, I eat just a little above maintenance. I guess i would be much bigger if i ate around 500+ calorie above maintenance but i try to stay only between 50 and 250 cals above it. I...

Old and Grey 15- 25 range, does this mean ure not working ure abs in a hst fashion ? or just with bigger reps ... Im asking because, like i said , maybe its best to have strong and toned abs then big abs , if you have a "high"(too high to see 6pac) level of bodyfat.

Im not saying creatine didnt help me gain weight, it did. It worked pretty well in fact , since i didnt take alot, i was a bit afraid so i decided to be safe and go slowly on it, but even tho i didnt take much i did gain weight and i was happy, until i stoped taking it and lost some if not all...

if i could lose fat while SDing and not lose muscle that would be perfect... I know what you mean, if i dont go to the gym 2-3 days in a row i already feel awful, its weird that having to do nothing is so hard :) how much time does it take muscles to atrophy ? can i eat a little under...

so unless we can see your 6pack already ( low bodyfat ) , working abs in a hst style isnt a good thing ? Since you want your muscles to stay small. Instead work with high reps without any progressive loading, this will increase strenght and will reduce hypertrophy potential? Is this a good ideal ?

hey thanks, Ok, i think that in most case, water retention is the main effect and main reason why people use it, it gives a fuller look quickly, but as soon as you stop taking creatine you lose that, so it was kinda worthless... unless you take creatine for ever ( and even then it only serves...

Im going to SD in 1 week, what can i do to prevent some muscle loss ? As soon as i enter my SD, i was planning on reducing my meals a little to reduce calories to just a little above maintenance, should i remove the protein shakes too ? or keep them, is getting 1gram of protein per lbs still...

Why would ppl want to use creatine if it doesnt really add muscle mass ? it add temporary mass ? from what i understand the gain only comes from water, and when you stop taking creatine you lose your gains, so why use it anyways ? It doesnt make you stronger either... The only real use i could...
