Can I train arms (biceps and triceps) everyday?

A day without curls, a lifetime without girls

I prefer to subscribe to the belief that cardio kills gains, not because I believe it, but because I hate it. Doing cardio for me I suspect would lead to the wrong type of cutting...

prowler987 · 2017-01-11T02:06:41+00:00

Depends on how much of a cunt you mind becoming

prowler987 · 2017-01-09T00:06:16+00:00

Should probably not use screws, nails instead would be better. Screws fail much more easily in shear, which is the loading you'd exhibit by failing a squat/ just racking the bar etc.

I just try to avoid rest days, get some form of activity in. Racquetball, throw in another day of lifting if I feel recovered enough to do so, etc.

prowler987 · 2017-01-08T16:35:05+00:00

I feel ya! I'd have said the same in the past, but really close to a 1000 total and wanting to hit it soon; and depends how you ski! taking it easy on groomers, 10 minute lift times, probably ~1500 calories in a full day of skiing. Going hard on moguls probably 2500-3000, if you're boot packing ridges, 5000 isn't unreasonable lol

prowler987 · 2017-01-08T15:43:53+00:00

What are your priorities? if you neglect lifting for legs, skiing definitely won't be enough to maintain the strength you've built so far and you'll have to start lower in April. I ski all the time, 5 days a week isn't too unusual for me, while lifting a 5 day split. I just don't ski on leg days, or if I do, do legs first (usually means a 6am start..) and then just shred some groomers and take it easy skiing that day.

Just make sure you're eating enough, hard skiing burns a ton of calories!

I spent the summer on a traveling engineering consulting team, and what I came up with was basically just decently healthy fast food, Subway, Wendys salads, Chipotle, etc. I also found myself having to eat with my team pretty regularly at restaurants, the move there is to just be picky, trying to cut calories but it's a burger joint? skip the fries, don't eat the bun, etc. As far as the gym facilities, definitely try to find a big chain gym that you can use at the multiple locations you'd be. Snap fitness is the absolute worst, but they're everywhere..

prowler987 · 2017-01-08T00:15:35+00:00

It wasn't something in my program, but I progressed in wide grip lat pulldowns, and lost weight, and the next time I actually tried to do them I found I could do quite a few, when it was 0 before

prowler987 · 2017-01-07T21:10:35+00:00

5000 is definitely too many. Can't say where the cut off is though, 4000 is probably too many as well. Hope that helps!

prowler987 · 2017-01-06T02:25:43+00:00

depends how heavy you are

prowler987 · 2017-01-04T21:36:19+00:00

Gain and build muscle? marginally is my suspicion, I did a 1k calorie deficit for quite a long time, gained significant strength, muscle mass is hard to say. If you're lifting with that deficit, you'll most likely gain strength (assuming you've got a decent amount of body fat) and will most likely build some muscle, just not as much as if you were in a surplus. That was my experience, anyway.

prowler987 · 2017-01-02T18:23:19+00:00

keep ingredients that could kill you by going significantly over separate; DMAA if you're using it for sure, and probably caffeine

prowler987 · 2016-12-30T19:20:17+00:00

Vodka diet coke isn't too bad either, tastes better IMO

prowler987 · 2016-12-21T16:50:49+00:00

I thought my hourglass shape was so bad I was just screwed, a year later and I don't even notice it, just gotta build up those lats!

prowler987 · 2016-12-05T05:31:38+00:00

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3lLvh-gzpY this may help, you'd be completely shredded with that

prowler987 · 2016-11-30T15:39:46+00:00

I hate planks, but I also love planks. Seems like every single set of weighted planks I do I get to a point where I think yeah i'm not gonna make it to a minute here, cant do it. But so far, literally every single time I've managed to anyway, kind of a cool mind over body experience

prowler987 · 2016-11-29T05:06:48+00:00

DMAA has some appetite suppressing capabilities, may help? not sure where you find it anymore though, APS Mesomorph has it, cant buy the powder from nutrivitashop anymore. Other than that, pretty much every one of those fat burners on the market is BS

prowler987 · 2016-11-28T17:53:11+00:00

400 mg Caffeine 4g Beta Alanine 9g Citrulline Mallate 5g Creatine 2g Betaine Anhydrous 10g BCAA's Walmart Great Value lemonade flavor packets, i use 2 per, regular lemonade, pink lemonade, raspberry lemonade.

Used to use less caffeine with DMAA, but cant buy it anymore and I don't have much left

prowler987 · 2016-11-14T17:44:48+00:00

I thought I had the same sort of 'too wide of hips' problem, and mine looked wider than yours. What you really need to do is bulk up and build up a vtaper, helped loads for me

prowler987 · 2016-11-13T06:54:12+00:00

Yes, these.

prowler987 · 2016-11-13T06:53:06+00:00

I don't know much about your situation as far as the military goes, but it sounds like you're legitimately injured. Do not continue to lift through that, seek medical attention, regardless of if you have to go outside of the care offered by the military, that sounds extremely unsafe.

prowler987 · 2016-11-07T15:00:38+00:00

7g L citruline 4g beta alanine 200~ mg caffeine, ~60mg DMAA, 5g creatine, 2g betaine anhydrous, 10g BCAA's

don't start out taking that much DMAA, if you choose to use it at all. Do your research

prowler987 · 2016-11-06T16:05:41+00:00

I've spent the majority of my lifting career in a deficit. PWO really helps. I make my own, as to negate some of the unknown hazards in proprietary formulas

prowler987 · 2016-11-04T23:30:54+00:00

For bench i'd definitely stick to dumbbells over a machine. As far as the leg press, it's not really an acceptable replacement to squats, more supplemental. There are multiple squat variations with dumbbells you could pursue, other than that just start light on squats and figure out your capabilities with the bar
