Cheers for your replies guys. I'll try not let it bother me. I was thinking of just doing a direct arm routine but for both arms and using hst principals but I'll wait till I put afeiw more lb's on first overall on my body. I have some dumbells at home. I was thinking of doing another 2 or 3...

Hi my right arm is slightly bigger than my left. From my forarm to around the bicep/tricep area. I have always trained both arms so I just wonder why ones got slightly bigger. Same with my pectoral aswell. I'm sure my right is bigger than my left. I dunno I may just be getting paranoid.

lol I shown my sister my bicep the other day she said "eeerrrrr" as in gros lol. To me it was a compliment though. I'm 5,11 and 155lbs lol so I dunno what she was so descusted about lol wonder what she will say when I get bigger.

I don't see why they wouldnt stimulate muscle and induce growth and strengh but I suppose people would argue of what works best. ie machine bench or normal bench press. I am lucky enough to have oppotunity to use anytype of excersice per body part in my gym weather its machines or free weights...

Hi mate. I use hammer strengh machines for alot of my excercises. Heres my routine Incline Bench = hammer strength Dips = is also a hammer strength machine and you just add weights to the sides Lap pulldowns Rows = hammer strength shoulder press = hammer strength Shrugs = is also a hammer...

Hi. Yeah I'm gonna start to weigh the portions I normally eat like all my everday foods I plan on eating to reach 2700 then add other stuff if I need to which I prob will. It seems kinda confusing though with everything in my book near enough says 100g of something or other so if I ever get a...

Your right about nuts in my book it says per 100g roasted and saulted peanuts you get 602 calories. So if I had 200g or nuts I get 1204 calories. Which I feel would help grately towards acheiving 2790 caolories per day. It seems mad how those little nuts could help me bulk up. My books full of...

Ok well I ain't a big eater but I've been doing my best for 5 weeks now. I havn't counted my calories in the past but am willing to give it ago. The book and the site I go on have alot of info but I'm kinda looking for a list of high calorie foods to help me out.

Thanks. Well this is what I got from my calculations. x17 = 2635 x18 = 2790 x19 = 2945 x20 = 3100 So should I aim to get a minimum of 2635 cals a day and a max of 3100 and anything it between will be fine. On top of this do I have to around 130g of protein a day aswell. A man in the gym said...

Hi well I have just got a book on calories and also Lol gave me this site thecaloriecounter.com but I'm unsure how much calories I will need to bulk up. I'm sure I seen a little test were I have to put my height in kg and how much I weigh etc then it will say how many calories I need.

Hi. I'll look for a smallish water bottle and try it out sounds like its the right thing.

Hi well normally after the gym I slap an ice pack onto my right pectoral as I injured it in the passed. I still sometimes trigger it again so the ice always always helps. With all sore muscles aswell. What dose it actually do the muscle apart from freeze it lol. Hope there ain't no harm is...

Well after reading this thread I'm booking an eye exam. I know I went to the doc and all but still. Well I suppose what happens to me is out of the ordinary I guess. My head and face starts to burn as it happens aswell. When it happens I just say to my self "oh dang" and kinda look to...

Hi guys thanks for your replys. I also know people on the gear. There competive body builders though. One has lost the gains as he don't use them anymore. I think he stopped training aswell. I like actually training in the gym. Love the feel, love the pump and I know its good for me. I'll get...

When I get up from laying or sitting down. Every thing goes dark just as you described it. Then I start to get dissy and alittle wobbly. Once I fell onto the sofer as this happened. When I went to the docters about it as it happens quite often, even now infact it happend yesterday. The doc just...
