Breakfast- none(why get up and cook when you can sleep in another 15 minutes. Staying up until 1 a.m playing Xbox really takes it's toll)

Lunch-burger/fries/soda(keep in mind, it's now been @18 hours since last meal, which was dinner the night before)

Pre-WO-nothing
Workout-decline bench press(cause you can lift more), preacher curls. Repeat 7x a week
PWO-nothing

snack- half a bag of doritos, 2 more sodas

Dinner- whatever Mom cooks(this is the only thing still keeping you alive. Otherwise you'd have scurvy and be hospitalized for malnutrition)

Pre-bed-nothing(you're too busy playing Xbox, or trying to decide which supplements are finally gonna get you "hyooge". As soon as you can afford them.)

* Although a lot of people don't like to admit it, this is what most of them normally do. I've been a prey of this routine before many, many years ago. Everybody wants to build muscle but nobody wants to get up to eat properly and lift some heavy ass wieght.

agree agree thumbup.gif The only they are alive because they still can eat their mum's cook dinner. Other than that, like my friend, he drink cola for dinner shocking.gif Those who are luckily can live through it, those unluckily a bit, will get disease like me, kidney stone sh*t happened to me few years back.

So low reps + heavy weights will be more conducive to building power without adding that much bulk? Or is it the ever popular high reps/low weight?  rolleyes.gif

low reps with heavy weight and low sets (you leave out this) will make your muscle harder and more tone in another term.

Low reps with heavy weight and high sets, will more you grow more muscle and bigger.

The benefit about these is you not only become stronger, you will also can grow muscle depends on which style you use it.

There is an article about human power with the muscle which i read from, the author is a russian something like that.
