    First cycle

    The prohormones (designer steroids) are usually more harsh(liver wise) than dealing with the few sides of test. Just do your homework and research the hell out of it so you know what you're doing and do it

    Vertical jump

    Snatch pulls work great. Power cleans, clean and jerks and snatches are next in line. Then sled drags, weighted sprints, progressive box jumps. You could do the explosive Olympic lifts one day. Then squats, Deadlifts, split squats, box squats, etc. another. Then on day three do the conditioning...

Back and chest, trust and bis superset day1, legs and traps superset day2, off 3, then just chest and tris day4, just...

    Trying to gain miscle mass

    Look up SL5*5 on stronglifts.com. Run it for atleast 10weeks. Start light and follow it strictly. Work on proper form because later as you get more advanced and lift heavier it will help. After that you can either run it again or move on to something more advanced. Weilders 5/3/1 is a great one...

    Simple training question

    Mainly just to not fatigue your accessory muscles before lifting main compound....doing the compound especially for strength you want to reserve most of your energy for it. Now body builders may superset or pre fatigue but most also use machines and isolations. They are going for complete...

    Mass building

    Exactly. Find out about how many cals you're taking in now, clean it up if necessary, then increase a couple hundred cals a week till you're at desired intake. Lots of clean meats and vegetables, especially green vegetables. Only take shakes in morning, night, or after work out and make sure...

    Is it better to start with 5x5 or German Volume Training (GVT)???

    SL5x5 would be a good start. It starts light and will bring you back into lifting better than anything else IMO. After that depends on how you have recovered, maybe a 5/3/1. After reading some stuff from Coach Poliquin once you get a good strength base then cycle it with volume for mass. He...

    ive hit the plateau....HELP!!!

    Like Zir Red said focus on one goal at a time. Strength for 6-8 weeks, volume( mass) for 4, then repeat. If goal is just strength for competition then focus on just that and a month or two before comp put more focus and effort in the lifts you'll be doing and their accessories.... dont waste...

    Mass building

    Few questions. Age? Height? Weight? What type of training have you done in the past? Current maxes or weight range you train in? And any other things about yourself might help people steer you in the right direction.

    Routine ??

    Yeah 5\3\1 is good, I love it but technically this routine is basically the same with more volume and technically week 1 would be the deload when you repeat as long as it starts in the 40-60% range. I've tried my share of programs and all have their differences but most are the same as they...

    I'm convinced I will die with small calfs...anybody else feel my pain?

    Alot of it has to do with where the muscle is attached. Longer ones appear to be smaller cause they are stretched over a longer area.... why alot of taller people have small calves. There's a routine by Nelson Montana that may help. Something like do as seated calves raises as you can in frive...
