…Genetics, Muscle Fiber, Steroids???… Continued
I’ve been building for about nine months. I regularly maintain a 6 day/ week workout, if I’m heavy lifting it’s one bodypart/ day. But to switch it up sometimes, I’ll take two months to do lots of high-rep and burn-out sets. During these times I’ll do about every body part throught the week, mixing it up a bit — i.e. one day is traps/chest/biceps and the next will be triceps/calves/flys (as a follow-up to my previous chest workout). I try to do alot of isolation routines in addition to my compound lifts, and I always do the dumbell version of any lift that I can.
Cardio for me; summer/ springtime I’ll run 1.5- 2miles 2-4days a week. The 2-4 depends on my right knee. Winter I’ll work a heavy bag for about twenty minutes — kicks, knees, elbows and punches — I intend to hit the Stairmaster and Eliptical this upcoming winter too. I try to do my cardio in moderation because I obviously am striving for some gains in my mass.
I don’t know my exact calorie intake, but I know it’s A LOT! I’ve got the metabolism of a freakin’ hummingbird on Meth, and I would prabably die if I had to skip a meal! On a daily I prabably consume 100+ grms of protein via shakes — not ghetto protein either — 20 grms via bars and another 60grms in what I eat.
I’ve always been the lanky kid, and my range of motion is quite a bit longer than some, so gains in mass/ maxes might be harder coming. But nevertheless any advice or experience would be cool…..
