Read the stickies.

and the workout journals of other members while you're at it

y u do so lil????

no u wont "improve the size of chest and biseps". drink more of those weight gainers make your waistline increase instead.

stickies bro, stickies

Srsly,go heavier.

if u can do 20x4 wide arm pushups, it means your load is too light. do elevated leg or uneven pushups instead.

it seems that im doing very little. thanks for the pedro.

could you suggest me how much should i do instead?

its not the matter of how much of it. it will never be enough. i've been training at home for 3 months before this, and the progress are friggin slow. the only answer is go to gym and do bench press instead. plus, u need variety of exercise to make it grow.

y u oni train 2 parts?
read the stickies....

Sigh...

im sorry if i tick you off. never intend to do so sifu.

you didn't. I'm just exasperated. you too impatient. a good physique isn't developed in a day. or weeks.

Or with only doing curls and push ups

really? from what i read i shouldnt work out too many muscles if i want only certain part to grow. perhaps i read wrong.
dont get me wrong, i know muscles wont grow in a short period of time. i just wanted to know if what im doing is right. i do read the stickies already.

how does this show that you have read and UNDERSTOOD the stickies ?

rilek bro...
he read today..
tat day he din read...
lol

how old are you brah?

im 23, 61kg 175cm

how long have u been training?

Bro, u lift so light and still drink muscle juice, that will fatten you...

im 175cm and 61 kg now. still underweight. i know i can get flabby tummy as well. but im increasing my exercise now. 6x20 dumbell lifting and 6x20 wide pushups now 4 days a week. do let me know if im still not doing enough. im want to progress. need the truth from sifus.

My god man read the stickies and the workout routine thread. You will get nowhere with what you're doing now.

seriously, can i report this thread as waste of space?

give him a break. he's new.

lift min 10kg. to begin. whatever u do..it's alwas 10kg. after 2 weeks. up the weights. never back down again. can lift. get help. no help..self help.

u'll make it!

Thank you for being supportive. This is the kind of help i need. Pointing where im wrong. Not just asking me to read stickies which I did, and i dont think I understand all them all. which is why we need a forum for a purpose of discussion am i right? thanks AW-151. I will raise the bar of my training. 10kg per dumbbell


Update: 10kg for 1 dumbbell is too much. i can only raise it 3 times using 1 arm. scare if my vein is gona pop.

I'm quoting this just in case u edit your post. good, from now on, pm him and him only. The only reason we ask u to read the stickies is because the kind of questions you're asking is answered in there. The guys here try to play nice, but you kept on expecting to be spoon fed. If you don't understand the stickies, you can ASK ABOUT THEM, NOT ask like a 3 y.o, how to this how to that.

The statements you make clearly reflect how much time you have tried to understand the basic fundamentals of all this. Which is absolutely minimal

alright, my bad. sorry if i offend u in any way. nobody is forcing you to read my thread anyway. peace no harm

I'll just be really blunt here. Your routine is crap. Pick a routine from the stickies or from the workout routine thread. Don't know the exercises stated in the threads? Google them and you will get plenty of instructional videos.

Things are very simple, if you start standing on your two feet and putting some effort into things.

which routine are you referring to Dan? the initial one or the updated one?

Read them both. Pick one.

New peep, use this

Keep the rage for tomorrow's session

Actually there's something else very veiny which you can work repeatedly with as many reps as you can and you will never be afraid of the veins popping there.

u and ur .. well, veiny jokes

brah, u trained at home or in a gym?

tbh, u are those type of ppl tat are stubborn and refuse to listen ... believe me, u are...

rofl!
somehow today i am in peace with the world so i'll sit this one out. other regs seems to be doing a great job though!

errr...then try 20kg.i guess your hand will break.

chill2, bare with me >.<

I just changed my routine. since my routine is not hardcore like most people. i decided to do 4 times a week. alternating each day.
currently doing 5x10 dumbbell wide pushup, 6x20 wide pushup, 5x10 dumbell pull, and 5x20close arm pushup

I see 3 pushes, assume to be pushup variations so that hits the chest.
One pull movement, so that's the back.

Most of us don't deem our routines hardcore. But our routines have a point.
What's the objective of your routine?

Whassup Mihawk7,
u house-workout or gym? 4 times per weeks with same body part personally for me not recommended...u killing ya muscle..dont over workout at same body part..

what is dumbbell wide push-up anyway? u mean normal wide push-up but instead of using ya palm u use dumbell or missed typo?

if u a gym member...and equipment is good (For chest workout) try stand bench press (use light weight unless u have someone watch over/help u or machine) /Dumbbell fly manual or i recommended pec-deck machine (again use light weight) /dumbbell pull-over / and incline dumbbell/barbell press...if u can do Dips that is good but pls dont be macho-man..lol..

but u need to workout other part of ya body cuz they help ya overall workout..like chest..u need good solid triceps to support ya chest routine..good luck

Im into modelling. People suggested me to buff up my chest and biseps so that clothes looks better on me. im personally satisfied with other parts of my body.

Micro, im only doing my workout from home. i have 2 sets of 6kg dumbbell and thats about it. wide dumbbell push-up seems not to be the universal term i think. what i do is, lay my body on the floor and lift the dumbbel upwards from the side of my shoulder.

When they say buff up you chest and biceps, it isn't to be taken literally. You don't see a huge chest and biceps on a skinny guy, it's all about proportions. What it probably means is to buff yourself up, rather than specific bodyparts.

Your workout doesn't seem to have a point, it's all over the place. Go join a gym and get a proper workout if you can't make sense of the stickies here. What you don't realize is the male models you normally see with ripping bodies are regular gym-goers as well.

Guys, just leave this thread alone. There's more than enough good solid advices in here. He only wants to hear what he wants to hear. Leave it at rest. When he wants to learn, he will learn drop that f*cking attitude and learn to read

Again, nobody is forcing you to read bro =)

@statikinetic: thanks for the advice. will work on other parts as well as you suggested. Sadly my daily schedule doesnt permits me to join any gym. Plus no budget to join one. Perhaps working out from home allow slower development but thats my only choice so far

if you are a student i dont really see why you cant join a gym. but whatever, that attitude of your aint gonna get you nowhere.
