i've been eating lettuce salad for like 9 months now every day :D im kinda got tired of it.. can i switch up to something like carrot + garlic salad or beetroot salad or cabbage salad? or these veggies are somehow bad for u?


Depending on your goals...

if cutting avoid tomatoes and carrots (any other veggies are fine for salad)

if bulking all veggies are acceptable!


cucumber salad, tomato salad, spinach salad, get creative!

hey, i have been training for an up coming Bodybuidling compatition so i bulked up as much as i can grew big proportioned but of course during this bulking faise i but on body fat, im not too fat by ne means u can still c lil abs but i know i want to cut this fat to make me more vainascular and ripped.
btw i hav 15-20% bodyfat and wld like to get 6%

Any Ways the compatitions in 7 weeks, June 8th to b exact, im wondering when i shld start cutting? now? 4 weeks prior?
reason im asking is i heard if u cut 2 soon ur muscles will look sluggish rather than defined..idk

LMK!!
Thanks in advance



for bodybuilding comps, cutting begins 8-12 weeks out. The really hard cut (0 carbs, tons of cardio, and mild dehydration behind 2 weeks out)

make sure to train lots of pumping style exercises, train until failue, and work as hard as possible at the gym 1-2x a day 6 days a week.

on the day of the competition, drink NO WATER and eat several candy bars right before going on stage (this huge insulin spike forces crazy vascularity prior to the show)

p.s. dont forget the tan lol

I was thinking about doing a similar exercise, or just sticking to a weekly base exercise with only working 2 body regions a day each week, instead of 2x. Which do you perfer?


the split I posted is very good as an overall bodybuilding style regimen. if you are looking for pure power, then I'd recommend 1x musclegroup per week (mon-fri workouts)

Mon - Back/Tris
Tues - Chest/Bis/Abs
Weds - Legs/Shoulders
Thurs - OFF
Fri - Chest/Back/Abs
Sat - Arms/Legs/Shoulders
Sunday - OFF


what do you think about this split for training each body part twice a week?



it's good depending on goals. if your goal is cutting and pumping - there is no finer plan

I would seriously go see a doctor about that.

If you really are having ringing constantly that lets up when you put pressure on the ear...theres a good chance you have fluid buildup near the eardrum - definitely go to a walk-in clinic (they are cheap and easy for this sort of thing) and get it looked at.
