I dont know what exercises, rep range and instensity you are using. What are your goals. Why train the glory muscle twice but no legs or back? EDIT: just re read your post. You are off cycle. Dude, why not get your training sorted before the gear!

Sorry to jack the board its just i was curious |

![]() | Re: training too much apparently life at thew gym would be too dull without the deadlift and the squats... why dont u do legs?... can u stimulate muscle grow without exercising legs?.. I have always heard that best thing is not to ignore any muscle group |
