Official Workout Thread

Don't know if anyone mentioned it on here or not, but the best thing you can do while working out is going slow as you lift, curl, or whatever and release slow. A full bicep curl should take three seconds and the release should take three seconds.

Remember the only way that you get bigger is causing micro tears in muscel fiber, as it heals it the musscel fiil in the gap of the tear. It also takes about 72 hours to fully heal from one intense workout if you over work a body part it will hurt this proccess more then help it. Base you workout around that. Focus on two key musscels at a time and have one day off during a week to really get yourself to grow.


Hope this helps.

The whole slow thing might only apply to mass? Or beginners? Idk, just know that a lot of people work out trying to be explosive and quick with the movements. Athletes for one, then bodybuilders I know do that too.

I wish I could max at 200...I think a plate might be my max, or just barely more than it. Pretty impressive coming back from an injury, good job Cheers

Only impressive thing I can do (at least for me) is I can leg press six plates.

Thats quite good. I was always upper body, never liked to do lower body. But I started lifting early thats why I was able to bench a decent amount near the end of my freshman year. It also likely led to my injury.

I never really worked out, until the past year, so my legs are just that strong from all the years of hockey, soccer, golf, football, baseball, etc.

I do agree with you though, I much prefer doing upper body than lower body.

The most I was able to bench was about 140 pounds, but I often used the cable machines. When I would try the actual bench press I'd be pretty shaky Undecided gotta work on that more.

Yeah, that's what 6 plates, or 1 plate or 5 plates is...it means on each side.
