do you super set same muscle/muscle group or do you super set 2 different muscle groups like chest and triceps

i do both its what ever im in the mood for :P

[Gnomedesto]

No reason to make it more complicated than what you're doing and eating a surplus of calories. Basic basic good luck

[EliteKiller]

u better start using steroids if u not already

I recently started lifting too. Im gettin stronger,but if anyone wants to drop some tips on a strong meal plan it would be much appreciated.

If you're actually looking to build muscle, i'd recommend protein shakes and creatine. You'll see crazy growth and strength increases in like a month if you take both those daily.

I definitely do recommend protein shakes but do not start taking creatine as a beginner. You'll see little to no difference as a beginner lifter. Once you're up to about a year of lifting or around 150+ lbs bench press for example, i'd say to start taking creatine, when you'll notice a difference. There's no need to start creatine too early, though it does do wonders once you've been lifting for some time.

I really like doing this.  Once you get to one and see how much youre lifting its a huge self esteem booster

for(int i = 5; i > 0; i++){
    doSet(i)
}

private void doSet(int reps){
    for(int i = reps; reps > 0; i++){
        System.out.println("GRUNT");
    }
}

creatine is the best supplement you can take it right when you start and stop taking it when you die dont listen to the retard broscience shit you hear or read

I find it easier to lift in resizable mode, also strength pots are essential.

[pitoluwa]

3 weeks done, i'm doing the Stronglifts 5x5 plan, u proud of me bros?

 

Okay so I started 07.04.2015 with:

Squat 20

BP 20

Barbell Row 11

 

Overhead 20

Deadlift 20

 

 

21/23.04.2015 it's

Squat 32,5

BP 30

Barbell 22,5

 

Overhead 22,5

Deadlift 30

 

I wasn't adding kilos after first 3-4 workouts - just to get my body prepared to lifting

 

I competitively lifted in the UPA-AD. Trained with a guy that was trained by a former world's strongest man for my entire lifting career. (Even trained with a former world's strongest man a couple times.)

 

Gotta rotate that rep scheme though to keep making progress. We always did for our bench/squat/deads:

• Month 1:
  • 8 x 135
  • 8 x 175
  • 8 x 225
  • 5 x 5 x working weight
  • 135 x burnout
• Month 2:
  • 8 x 135
  • 8 x 175
  • 8 x 225
  • 3 x 3 x working weight
  • 135 x burnout
• Month 3:
  • 8 x 135
  • 8 x 175
  • 8 x 225
  • 2 x 2 x working weight
  • 135 x burnout
• Month 4 (One chest workout):
  • 8 x 135
  • 2 x 175
  • 2 x 225
  • 1 x MAX
• Reset @ month 1

All in lbs. btw. And ofc add 1-2 exercises to each day to burn out, chest flys, leg press, barbell rows, etc.

 

At the end of the day though dude, I was strong as hell, big as hell, but I live a pretty active lifestyle, like to run, play sports, and after a couple years of that routine, I could really feel it. My ankles would feel almost like they were broken if I took off running, etc. It just wasn't I guess functional would be the word.

 

These days I just do 8-15 rep range to build size and stay functionally strong.
