I dont know why but when i heard some people at the gym i go to take AAS i was a bit shocked as i thought very few people and only those at really big gyms took em.. My point is this why do people take them ? dont they realise that its bad for your health ? or is it really that bad ? Also it...

So basicly it will give a response but if i was able to go up 2.5kgs each time it would give a bigger response ? (since i cant go up in 2.5s due to my gym its a moot point but worthwhile knowing) But i was thinking that due to it being a bigger increment it would take the muscle longer to get...

but why wouldent it be optimal ? Didnt Bryan say that even with the same load the muscle can grow for up to 2-4 weeks and the diminishing returns would occur and get stronger after the first few times of doing it, But would doing the same weight aprox 48 hours apart just twice really make a...

I know its allowed but is it OPTIMAL to repeat weights all the time e.g all weights are in KGS Leg curls 40 45 45 50 50 55 55 60 60 65 65 70 70 75 75 80 80 85 Leg Exe 40 45 45 50 50 55 55 60 60 65 65 70 70 75 75 80 80 85 Squat 45 50 60 60 65 70 75 80 85 Calf Raises 40 45 50 55 55 60 60 65 65 70...

When doing drop sets would u have to rush the weight of the bar so as to minimise rest ? What about those bars with the screw fixings :o they would take much longer

PLus what are pulse reps ? Also would the clean and press be a good one to use ?:? as it works most muscles :D

Well im 6 foot. Dont think im lanky ;) i have pretty big quads hard as a rock cause i climb up and down ladders constantly in my job, On one squat a few weeks i could lift 22 stone = 308 pounds for 10 reps :o I thought that was pretty unusual as im only training 3 months, but i guesss the...

yeah i can nearly throw a stone over to your house from here :) well compared to other peoples distances from us its close i spose... anyway. im just not gonna do the isolation excersises untill 10s, that way i get more linear progression like V said in another thread :D
