hey, that's good if she is able to spot weaknesses however, I have tried to get gf's in the past to do this but they really don't know what is what when it comes to bbing. All they know is what they like. So if you want to get constructive criticism on you total physique - mass, symmetry etc.. then I'd ask an experienced bber or even post pics on here as what you'll get from a girl (assuming no bodybuilding history) is what she fancies - normally a build like Brad Pitt.

Big_Dan · 01-04-2008, 02:01 PM

She reckons i have more of a gymnastic physique, which i think is ideal, because i do not want to get massive, although i love and following bbing,
but everyone of my past gf`s have said that they like a more gymnastic build to a bbing build like,

Although i do take steroids, my diet compliments the way i progress in bulking, when bulking i put on lean muscle and bf stays around 10% , soo ive got all that down,
I usually train with a mate whos a gymnast , and usually do some of his exercises(bodyweight) which i feel that give me that extra boost

Cool, sounds like you're achieving the look you want and you have a woman who is in to that - which is a bonus! You're right, not everyone wants to get huge its a personal choice and I always think that the main key to looking good is bf%. Keep it below 10 and you're on to a winner.

I know, its a big bonus to be honest

, Im not saying that i dont want to get any bigger,
which i do, but i do not want to pile on a load of mass, and look bloated, id rather be able to go anywhere, anytime a year and be able to show off my abs like !
Although that does sound vain, but i dont walk round with my top off everytho !!!lol

I'm a big fan of Chad Waterbury and I use his training methods in my workouts.

Five-O · 01-04-2008, 02:43 PM

From 1st glance at that routine id say....

OVERKILL!

oaklad · 02-04-2008, 11:35 AM

would probably agree that you do a bit too many sets even for volume training id say its alot

Done most routines over the years, and the one thing I learned (obviously what works ok for me) is that I struggle to train 2 days in a row, nevermind the 5 or so that Dan has put down, the workload probably aint that bad, its the no' of consecutive days.

If he can grow like that, as some ppl can, then fair play, I know myself and a good percentage of trainers, would too though.

MXD - Jimmy's post was aimed at Dan's routine, not the waterbury one (If I have read it correctly..)
