    Calves....make them grow

    I have...huge quads, pretty decent hamstrings, and tiny little bitch calves lol. I have more than respectable numbers on all the major lifts. I train calves 2-3 days/week. They are small lol. This isn't so much a "tell me what to do" sort of post...more of a "what worked for YOU." By you, I...

    Carbs at breakfast and peri-workout only

    He's in a small caloric deficit. However, I have another friend who does the same thing, except he doesn't eat any carbs at breakfast either. He has been doing this while bulking and managed to stay remarkably lean.

    Carbs at breakfast and peri-workout only

    A friend of mine has recently began eating his carbs only at breakfast and peri-workout. He has noticed a significant change in body composition over the past few months implementing this method. Does anyone have any experience using this or a similar method? Thanks!

    Blood pressure and heart rate after workouts

    I have noticed that more often than not, my blood pressure and heart rate remain elevated for hours after lifting and/or HIIT. This time last year I had a full cardio work up done. I have anxiety, and it turns out that it was what was causing my "heart problems..." I am 26, male, 205 lbs...

    Too much arm work?

    I think you missed the point of my post lol. I know how to gain weight...and I don't have small arms, I'm just saying I want them bigger and I feel like they don't respond as well as my larger muscle groups. Thanks though.

    Too much arm work?

    So, as I suspected, it sounds like I have been using too much volume for my arms. I will try less sets with heavier weights.

    Too much arm work?

    Pretty good numbers, especially for your weight man. That's a lot of milk lol. I eat lots of whole foods, try to restrict my liquid meals to post workout shake and casein before bed.

    Too much arm work?

    Lol. I'm 5'8, about 208, 15% bf. Need to lean out for sure, but trying to put on some more size. I'm not fat or anything lol, just much softer around the mid section then when I'm all ripped up that's for sure. Yourself?

    Too much arm work?

    I eat lots of food lol. Growing is not my problem, nor is strength. It's just my arms in particular...which are by no means small (well over 18.5 with a pump flexed), but in comparison to how the rest of my body grows they seem to be lagging. Plus...doesn't everyone want cartoonishly large...

    Too much arm work?

    Anyone else find that they may have been training arms with TOO MUCH volume? On arm day I use like...7 exercises for each bis and tris. Think I overdo it. I have a buddy whose arms are much larger than mine and he does not even do direct arm work, just some ancillary work at the end of back...

    Experience with this? What would they do to your arms that would help induce growth? ...Crack my back then inject my arms with synthol lol? ;)

    Arm troubles

    That's what I was thinking. I need to go back to heavier arm work instead of simply chasing the pump. Then on back day and chest day I can add some bis and tris with higher volume.

    Arm troubles

    My arms do not seem to grow like the rest of me. They are by no means small, but in comparison to how developed the rest of me is they look inferior. I train arms directly once a week, and have recently added a few sets at the end of chest and the end of back day. I train with higher reps on...
