Ahhnold. Nice vid, how much do you bench? I'm thinking about getting into weightlifting some more, at least more than like once every month (which is my current rate). I'm so slack.

I'm so slack. lol sounds like my current rate. i used to be into lifting, but have focused on running a lot more recently, something cool about being able to run 10 miles over lifting a lot of weight. "How long have you been doing this ( weight lifting) Im wondering cuz i wanna know how long it took you too achieve what you gots." the rate of progress you make is determined by a lot of factors. for example, without adequate nutrition, it doesnt matter how much you lift, you will get nowhere. im willing to argue you can get there in 6 months no doubt with proper training techniques and a lot of dedication. the key word there is dedication, its not easy by any means, and i give credit people who weight train like you latin. its just most people have no idea what they are doing when they start weight training. most people fail to do warmup sets, excercise muscle groups in an order that doesnt allow full muscle overload, dont cycle their workouts to prevent stagnation, etc the list goes on. for example, it is better to bench with a barbell as opposed to 2 dumbells because it allows for greater muscle trauma with a decreased chance of injury -------------------- I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. |

I don't lift for looks. I don't look anywhere near as big as Latin but I lift a lot more at the same reps. I don't want to gain any mass. I'm already pushing 195 pounds and I'm only 5'11". I think genes do make a big difference. Shorter guys tend to look a lot bigger than taller guys and put on mass easier. Losing weight adds definition too which makes your muscles look more defined, plus a skinny waist makes your chest and shoulders look bigger. I really just lift and work out to stay in shape, plus I like to play sports so it gives me an advantage. |
