"The action of testosterone can be in ways both beneficial and detrimental to the body. On the plus side, this hormone has a direct impact on the growth of muscle tissues, the production of red blood cells and overall well being of the organism. But it may also negatively effect the production...

Women also live longer because their testosterone levels are not as high.

What is your recovery time between sets? What are your thoughts on doing 3 sets of 6 reps?

I just found out that for size training, I would need to do 8-12 reps and rest for 1-2 minutes. I want size, not strength, so how should I adjust my workout? Should I keep the weight I have and build up to 12 reps over a couple weeks before increasing? Should I go down a few pounds on each...

This concerns me. I didn't know there was a difference between size training and strength training. FOr size training, do I just eat more?

I went to the gym this morning and asked the trainer if I was doing my deadlifts properly. As it turns out, my shoulders were too far back, and I was able to lift more with my shoulders forward. On a side not, next time, I get to bench press with a 45 on each side! It will be a good feeling...

Thanks, I will follow your fitness plan and use the machines my trainer recommended (for the particular muscle group I work that day) when I'm done with the big lifts. Thanks, I will check out that site. I bought a thing of Six Star whey protein from Wal-Mart for $14. It has 34 servings...

That's fair enough about the chistled chin, but just know that there is a huge difference between what women say they want in a man and what they actually want. Furthermore, testosteronized women will seek an estrogenized male. So next time a girl says she thinks muscles are a turn off, she is...

It sounds like all you are trying to do is contradict others. Why don't you give a testimonial on how you pick up chicks by being skinny?

Before going to the gym, I knew I needed a plan if I wanted to bulk up. I read the stickies by EFFORT and DIESEL and saw that I should do squats, deadlifts, and bench pressing. At my college's gym, we get a free hour to consult with a personal trainer and make a fitness plan. I told him that I...
