lol look at you lolsmoth 1 month of eating right/lifting and you're a pro


but seriously mate, he's right. only complete tools don't train legs.
Also, when you train legs your body's natural production of GH (growth hormone) increases, meaning you'll gain size in all your muscles more easily than if you didn't train legs. It's pretty much the same as taking an incredibly incredibly low dose of injectable GH/roids except it just happens naturally.

true story.

Don't be a faggle. train legs.


fuck i miss the gym. it's been almost 2 weeks since i've trained because i'm sick :( fuck can't wait to tear that shit up on wednesday

nope its legit.
your serum testosterone is higher after resistance training, the amount depends on intensity (as a % of your max), the amount of muscle mass stimulated, and the training load.

legs are 2/3 of your muscle mass so the amount of testosterone your body produces after a heavy legs session is huge.


think about it, why do people who do heavy compound movements put on more muscle mass (generally) than people who just do isolation movements?

More muscles are being stimulated at once = greater testosterone output

of course, you can't just be like 'I'll train everything every day!!!!!' because you must also consider cortisol production (stress hormone. also slows down fat burning and is catabolic (muscle wasting))

how good is swimming, i've started swimming again, i'm dreadfully slow and need flippers but it's so good
swam a kilometre yesterday, might go again tonight.

i did back and hamstrings on monday and shoulders on tuesday and i'm fucking sore, i can barely put a shirt over my head and turn the wheel of my car.
sitting down/standing up is also a killer.

i love it.

After swimming you can jump around and bones and joints don't make old (w0)man noises!
Definitely investing in some flippers.

But absolutely get hand paddles - IMO so much better to swim 1km or less with hand paddles than several km's without.
