My Nephew - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

samurai69 · 28-10-2005, 11:16 AM

Heres 2 pitures of my nephew, he is 15 1/2, been training for about 3 months

he is semi vegeterian (his parents are vegie - he will eat chicken out, but thats about it + ok with eggs and tuna)

at the moment he is training 3 or 4 days a week but is doing a full body workout every time

I was thinking of getting him to move to a 2 day split M,T and Th, F

What do you think ??

He has been sticking mainly to machines at the moment with a few d bell / b bell exercises thrown in

He plays Pretty good rugby and has been asked to play or atleast train with a particularly good teams under 17 squad though he is actually too young to play for them at the moment

Defo lookin good at 15! Get him hard on shoulders he'll need them to ram in to ppl's legs when he takes them down sprintin for the try line (for you Americans on here thats the same as the touchline!)

He'll be as big as you soon Samurai!

he is built for someone who is only 15 and a half! is he doing any compound movements or is it purely machine work?

Mostly machines at the moment, when i go over at xmas we will run through more compound exercises, but at that age its V important to get technique right, so dont want to start before i am there to supervise

Basic, simple and fun...

And I would drop the machines and switch over to free weights for everything

Like i said to CAP, once i get over there and can make sure he and his training partner will do the exercises correctly, without too much bravado and poor form, i will get him on free weights
