quick question, just came to mind.

say i can't pull myself up any more after i do a bunch of pull ups, would it be a good idea to just do negative ones, like just let myself down as slow as i could? im pretty sure it would be beneficial. because i do have some energy left, just not enough to pull myself up. or would i need this strength to do barbell rows, and other back exercises? just came to mind, so i will probably experiment, just looking for your expertise. thank ya in advance :)

Negative pullups are excellent! use them as a drop set for your routine.

Hey man, anyway you could write me out a bulking diet?
I wanna bulk up to about 210 CLEAN. :)
I will be working out 6 days a week with some body builders at my gym next week, trying to put on some size. :) Getting away from the power lifting for a couple months. :P
Current weight around 195 on a VERY good day.
I have whey/casein/fish oils/joint soothers/multivitamin/dessicated liver pills as my supplements.
Kinda need it to be detailed so I can follow it to the tee. :)

thanks a lot if you can help man. :)

I was hoping you could recommend some over the counter supplements to gain considerable muscle size without putting on fat.
I'm 6' 200lbs and weight lift regularly but haven't seen any gains in weight lifted or muscle size in nearly 6 months. Other than protein I currently don't take any supplements. I tried cycling creatine but all I noticed were size gains relative to retaining water but I still didn't have any improvements in the amount of weight I could lift.
So if you could recommend some supplements for gaining size but without any or little effect of gaining fat I would appreciate it. Thanks.

im currently

age19, weight145, and height5'10

i have a sz 39inch chest
13inch arms
probably less than 7% bodyfat

i ccurrently do
135 benching 6 sets of 5s
30 dumbell curls 3 set of 10s
30 tricep extension 3 set of 10s
perfect pushup routine on day 9
irongym pullups wide grip 3 sets of 10
close grip - probably alot

i can pretty much do these easily by now. completing each set efficiently and in good form. how many more lbs should i add to my weights to prevent plateuing of my muscle

and can you set me out a workout diet so that im not eating anything im not suppose to?
i want to aim 6 meals but i can only get 4 meals.
i drink only 20g whey protein isolate a day with milk, sometimes day and night

Yes it's ok. If I point my toes forward when I squat, it makes me feel like my bones/joints are going to break. :P So I point them outwards....it's also how a lot of powerlifters squat. :)

Just helping you and Raynor out. I know he's a busy guy. :P
