No, he didn't.



Don't be moronic. If you are working out and your weight doesn't change then you didn't gain. Get over this myth of fat-less muscle gain.



You still can't gain muscle...

This is a stupid assertion. You may as well be arguing that 1 = 2, because 1 is near 2 so therefore they're similar enough that they're basically the same thing so 1 = 2.

Controlled bulk =/=...

15 clustered dips, 3 - 10kg, 3,3 - 12.5kg, 3,3 - 15kg.

10 clustered one-arm pulldowns, 4 - 59.5kgs, 3,3 - 63kgs. This machine is tougher (using same weights) than the other. Resistance obv. higher...

The other relevant factor is that you just haven't progressed that far yet. There's no skipping progression in BB'ing//getting bigger. You're on your way, keep doing it. Oh yeh, eat more.

My best parts are shoulders and back. Visually my arms looks small, they're too evenly round (thick rather than high.


@Renky - if you're keen on going for a more rounded look, work the back...

Heavies of these:

-Deads
-Chins
-Rows
-Dips
-CG BP
-Pushups

15 clustered dips, 3,3,3 - 10kg, 3,3 - 15kg

10 clustered one-arm pulldowns - 5,5 - 200lb. Will use a different machine next time, too easy and maxed out.

11 clustered one-arm BB rows, 5 - 75kg,...

Sleep issues accounted for, it's nice to see your progress is increasing this time around. "PR" designation is something you ought to get used to.

14 clustered Incline BB Smith Machine,3 - 100kg, 3 - 105kg, 3 - 110kg, 3 - 115kg, 2 - 120kg. Left shoulder anterior delt soreness is prohibiting progression. It's from sleeping on it and ending up...

For me, shoulders (and I'm talking delts here, not traps or 'breadth' as viewed from the profile) are about as awesome as a muscle group gets. Take a Dwight Howard, Sergio Olivia, one of Arnold's...

Yes. V.good idea.

14 clustered Incline BB Smith Machine, 3 - 100kg, 3 - 105kg, 3 - 110kg, 3 - 115kg, 2 - 120kg. Will definitely bump the # of reps @ 120kg next time.

15 clustered one-arm BB rows, 5 - 70kg, 5,5 -...

Leg Press Rapers = ?

(LMK if need/want any help)

15 clustered Incline BB Smith Machine, 3 - 100kg, 3 - 105kg, 3 - 110kg, 3 - 115kg, 3 - 120kg. Felt good. 120kg won't be upp'd next time though, maybe the one after.

14 clustered one-arm BB rows,...

Nah, I have to do them with Versa Gripps, from about 90kgs upwards. It's a function of the DB design, which has a smooth handle (and no separator from the plates) that gets covered with a non-fixed...

Yes, it will be fine.

20 clustered one-arm BB rows, 5 - 60kg + bar, 5 - 65kg + bar, 5,5 - 70kg + bar. Stopped at 70kg, I tried 80kg + bar and it's probably my 2RM @RPE 10,, so I think next time I'll be starting at 70 and...

Curls shouldn't be happening pre-pulls/chins.

23 clustered one-arm pulldowns - 5 - 50kg, 5 - 54.5kgs, 5 - 59kgs, 4,4 - 63kgs. One-arm BB Rows (T-Bar style) coming though - they have the floor piece to lock the BB in :D.

3x6 BB bench - 100kg -...

Calves are meant to be larger than arms.

There's a few things at play here:

-Looking down the limb, a calf is a more rounded/circular shape, compared to the more elliptical bicep-tricep shape...

16 clustered DB rows, 5,6,5 - 102.5kgs. 'Easy', for what it is. 105kgs wouldn't fit on the DB.

1x15 WG pulls - BW, I-beam using finger grip.

11 clustered one-arm pushups, 3,4,4 - off the floor.

They're easier because you're doing less reps per exertion. This is why clustering is the boss. You don't fry your CNS.



I would prefer to see ~ 1kg per week. Try and eat more if possible...

Even the best tarp is only good enough to prevent rust for a while. I used to store my stuff outdoors and lift there but sooner or later there's too much moisture in the air and things go pear...

Current ballpark is 110-115kg.

It's not a matter of food, caffeine, sleep etc. It's actually giving enough of a damn to spend 10-15min getting the lock and spacing on the DB just right...
