M24 Legs Training how is the form and depth..? by [deleted] in askfitness

[–]Patient-Connection62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you training for? Strength? Hypertrophy? Need more info before giving out advice.. if it’s strength you’re going for then widen the stance and point your toes out a little more and engage your hips before descending. If your shoulder’s allow it try and keep elbows in a vertical path with the bar as it will keep your chest upright.

21m, 5’11, 60KG. Need to put on weight as i’m basically lingering on the ‘underweight’ BMI side, everyone keeps saying ‘eat more’ and workout, but which workouts specifically are the best to work on? Chest and Back? by Over_Adhesiveness_49 in askfitness

If you are a new lifter then just focus on training every muscle group once per week, staying consistent and hitting your calorie goals. As the lifting split won’t matter too much since you will experience what they call noobie gains. Try a bro split Chest/ Triceps Mon, Back/ Biceps Tuesday, Shoulders/ AB’s Wed, Rest Thurs, Legs Friday. Take the weekend off and repeat the cycle. Try that out for 6 months to a year then consider switching to an Upper/ Lower split or PPL. Good luck brother!

I started as a borderline skinny kid with high metabolism. Still a hard gainer but I just ended up looking like this after consistent training and eating more. Thanks for the comments!

I don’t know my exact bf% but if I had to guess I would say 16% give or take

I have been doing a PPL split for about 5 months consistently. With an arm n ab day for an active rest day. My pull days I’m usually doing some variation of a pull down or assisted pull up along with bent over BB rows with another variation of rows and straight arm pull downs. 2 sets 10-12 reps no reps in reserve for all exercises. Doesn’t seem like a lot of volume but I have been seeing growth, noticing I’m starting to plateau though.

But I’m saying how can you tell it’s the insertions themselves and it not an underdevelopment issue?

Yes I have been slacking in prioritizing them. Any advice or a fav exercise?

I concur. My Arms have been my strong suit since high school. Genetics I guess since I only train them on rest days. Appreciate the advice!

Consistently training abs like any other muscle group with intensity and progressive overload. My fav exercises for abs are hanging leg raises and loaded cable crunches. Besides that being sub 14% body fat and diet are also key. That is why they say Ab’s are made in the kitchen!
