a lot of them don't tell you the whole truth about like what happens when they enter your body. sometimes they'll benefit you, but doesn't necessarily mean you can't do it without them. you got to increase your daily caloric intake by atleast 1000 calories a day (up from your recommended intake)... and to fully prepare for workouts, just make sure you get enough carbs in you for workouts.... and within the 45 minutes after a workout replace the number of pounds lost with x16oz of water/liquid and make sure you get a good post workout meal in, not just a shake.

Don't trip about the gut. Bulk up first then slim down.Originally Posted by dano4o8
I'm having a dilemma right now and not sure how to approach this. i'm 5'10'' 177 lbs. I want to bulk up, but at the same time i'm trying to lose my gut(my jeans are starting to feel tight and i have to unbutton it when i sit sometimes...sigh) lol
I run atleast a mile every other day and on days that I can't I just get on the elliptical machine for 30 mins. any advice here?

Ryan Reynolds did an insane workout/diet routine for his role in Blade 3. That's how he got buffed up and got cut as hell.

I eat everything put in front of me really. From fast food to salads. I just try to find a balance between the two.
Hyper Cutter - I wish. Sword fights are super cool.
Thanks everyone for the compliments.

Those guys that are relatively new to lifting and want to gain strength should definitely give Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe a shot. His program is amazingly simple, but provides results that sound absolutely crazy. It just involves the main compound lifts (squats, deadlifts, bench, press, power clean, pull ups) 3x a week. It's not unrealistic to gain 10+ lbs within two months of the program and it provides a great basis for strength. Some of you may want to give it a shot. If not now, then try it out in winter, when you won't worry so much about fat gain.

I've heard alot about this program and mark..
can you provide a link to the routine?
I'm wondering if incorporating some isolation exercises i.e. curls, tricep pull downs, etc on a saturday would mess with the 3 day a week schedule???

im new to the thread. don't flame me.
started exercising/working out for my new years resolution. lost about 15-20 lbs so far and feel great. I'm 6-2 205 lbs right now. I've gotten down to where I want to be weight wise but I still have a gut/extra skin when i bend over (nh) to pick something up or sit down and man **** lol. when i stand up i feel/look fine but still want to do something about both these things. Will this go away with time if I stay on my diet and exercise plan? What are good exercises to tone up my midsection and lose the extra fat/skin? Other workouts recommended by looking at the pic i've attached?
my ultimate goal is to be toned up all around. thanks in advance
PS my workouts consist of mostly cardio, 2-4 miles a day and light weights.

lol I doubt I'm overtraining.. my workout isn't really much. I try to lift heavy 3 times a week and I only lift 3 times a week.
The only things I'm doing is what I've seen been recommended several times.
Squat 3x6
Bench 3x6 (I try to do 3x6 but the last set usually ends in 4-5 reps)
Deadlift 3x6 ( I only do this once a week on friday. I used to do it 3 times a week but a friend of mine recommended to do it once a week)
and then I do things like:
wide/close grip pull ups OR wide/close grip lateral pull downs 3x6
cable flyes 3x8
military shoulder press 3x5
bent over row 3x5 (I do this on days I don't deadlift but I've recently stopped doing it because I'm starting to feel pain in my arm from it)
ccobryan173 - you really think I'll look better if I eat more? like around maintenance or 100-200+ cals over?

Rippetoe is very well known and respected in weight lifting.
Here's a great write up on it: http://forum.dutchbodybui...-strength-routine-63770/

you can't make an addition to your house if the only materials you have are to fix up your current structure.

^^ how much did you way in the before and after pictures?
You are probably overtraining if you are doing almost the same routine all 3 days. If you work the same muscles 3 days a week, you want to limit your chest/triceps to 1 exercise like bench press and that's it. Same for the rest of your muscle groups. Especially if you are doing compound lifts.
So if you are doing full body 3 days a week, you might wanna do just 3 sets of bench press, 3 sets of squats, and 3 sets of pull downs, and that's it for your workout.
