The Gym Topic

[Mr. Gayle]

Aiming for 200 pounds by Feb next year.I know I could put the weight on before then but I'm opting for a slower gain consisting more of muscle (and also so I can work on maintaining my speed advantage so Eks doesn't f*ck me up when I go to training) instead of an immense bulk consisiting of just fain gain.I'm currently at just over 154,But I've just got flu and I'm hoping to god it doesnt f*ck me up for too long.Since last week when I started I've gained just over 2. YEAH.

yeah make sure most of your gains are muscledont end up like this dude:

lmao what the hell happened there!

You will always get fat regardless

[Angelo]

LOLThat is the worst transformation I think I've ever seen./Biceps aren't aching today.Will up the weight next week.

[Roscoe]

all you american fooball players google defranco.he's coached some of the best youngers in the nfl he's got some workout routines and a youtube page u might find useful.also i remember the old london blitz website (back in 06) had an article for weight training, one of the coaches recommended a pull/push/legs split

[Mr. Gayle]

[Roscoe]

[A Bit Better]

Did back, triceps and biceps on saturday to make up for not going to the gym most of the week (bad wrist). Barely got any sleep so usually I wouldn't be hurting yet but my back hurt from this morning. Then had training and my whole body ached after. Got a hamstring cramp earlier when I was trying to lay pipe. I'm actually shook to wake up tomorrow. Everything is gonna hurt!

Ok biceps and back are on fire atm. Upped the weights yesterday.Feels good.Gonna get in a shake, some eggs, and watch some Friday Night Lights before bed.YEAH

[Guillermo Rigondeaux]

Handspeed is getting ridiculous. Peppering man with 3 jabs and a left hook to body then head. The illest combo.

[YFSD]

Been feeling sick a lot latelyShovelling food in.

[Maxxx]

Legs tmoro love working my legs, but after walking is a killer

[Angelo]

Upped the weights again today.Nice feeling.Some d*ckhead came over while I was doing the lat pulldown and asked if he could "jump in" while I was resting.Yeah fair enough.Guy comes in, ups the f*ck*ng weight to 90kg, does his set, then turns round and says "what weight did you have it on".You f*ck*ng c*nt.YOu know I had it on 80, so stop being a prick and showing you can do more than me and put it backffs

[Mr. Gayle]

lol. how you doing your lat pull downsI have included doing straight pulldowns, its good, got it from Charles Glasshttp://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/glasscut4.htm

[Angelo]

How he does them in the videos is exactly how I do mine.I see people bending their backs back and using their weight to bring the bar down.Feels like cheating to me 2bh. Back is straight, and the bar is brought down to just below my chin

[djbmc]

i hate it when people proper lean back when doing lat pulldowns, some almost end up horizontal, wots the point? u might as well do rows instead, coz unless ur as vertical as you can get you're basically doing a different exercise.

[Bruno Di Gradi]

i need to get in the f*ck*ng gym... sheeit lol

You can lean back a bit, just make sure your not swinging and using the momentum to pull the weight downI lean back a bit, pull and then let it go back to top, pause, then repeat.

yeh, wot you said, u tried them with a narrow grip? this handle:

[YFSD]

That gives you thickness rather than width if i'm correct..

[Roscoe]

dont lean back, just keep your back arched.

[kahuna]

That gives you thickness rather than width if i'm correct..

longer lats.
