I've been going to gym for 5months and I doesn't gain much muscle instead of just going slimmer, but it seems to be a good news to me. Cause previously I was on 88kg but right now around 77kg, anyway I've been putting some muscle too, just too slow.. I'm suppose to be gaining muscle while losing weight ain't? I've heard from some friends they advice me to go on playing heavier weight..

Advice needed! Thanks a lot

I didn't play with tricep.. Cause trying to balance up my arm first, my tricep gets bigger while playing with chest that's why I go with bicep while playing chest.

My goal is looking like a superman

Just kidding, just to look better than anyone else..

Not to say too big, just it may not be balanced if I'm still pumping my tricep it may result to a state which your tricep has shifted near to our shoulder which would made my arm looks awkward. I saw this happened to one of my gym friend, he advice me not to do tricep too much, so I did stopped doing it.
Yea, glad that it's progressing, and it's a marathon which take a long period to gain a perfect one.
Could I get some suggestion for what kind of workout I could use for my splitting legs and back, cause I've been playing with only a few method.. Wanted to learn more.

It's not about shift.. I mean when our tricep grows too much than shoulder it would take the space of your shoulder muscle growing which would result to the shape of your shoulder could hardly seen, until you make it bigger then your tricep. Maybe this is more specific.. :\

I'll upload later, not my tricep. Is one of my gym friend.. So he asked me try not to look like him.
