Annualized Gains

YO COACH, I know this is a no brainer for you but could help us pee brains on how to figure an annualized gain.

[Lyehopper]

difficult questions indeed....

OK.... maybe my previous questions were a bit "over the edge"....

How bout these:

(1) Do you beleive that a stock picked on Wednesday Morning, with a VTP rating of 942.88 can actually win the POTW and beat out 20 other players by Friday? Would you care to make a side bet with IIC on this?

(2) Do you beleive Websman can belch louder than IIC? Would you care to make a side bet with me on this?

Drinking beer wouldn't hurt, unless it's right before your workout. I'll give you 5 things that will help you:

#1. Most common weight training mistake is doing too many reps...You need to lift heavy. That means if you are doing 3 sets of 10 reps, switch to 6 sets of 5 reps or fewer, increasing the weight by 5 pounds on each set. Your muscles grow because your body has asked them to do more than they were used to doing. Everything your body does to repair itself is a reaction to its stimuli. Doing lots of reps builds stamina, not size (because all you are doing is training your body to do more reps, not lift more weight).

#2. Do squats. Your quads and glute muscles are your biggest muscles in your body. If you workout these muscles, when you go to sleep your body will release muscle growth hormones that go through your entire body..not just to your legs and glutes. By working your biggest muscles, you'll coax your body into making more growth hormone. Which makes you bigger everywhere.

#3. Eat protein within 45 minutes of when you finish your workout. Immediately after you tear up your muscles from lifting, your body will be looking for protein to patch up your muscles. If you're not getting enough from your diet (2 grams for every lb of bodyweight) then eat Nitro Tech..it works great.

#4. Work your triceps. Your triceps are 2/3 of your arm mass. So your arms will look (and get) bigger if your triceps are big too.

#5 Don't overtrain. You need a day of rest between working out so your muscles can rest, repair, and grow.

Does that make sense?

Good stuff MM...

Couple other things I wonder about:

- I work out one or two particular body parts per day (like benching one day, squats/legs the next, etc), amounting to exercising a body part once/week. Is that taking your "rest" mantra too far?

- Some prefer dumbells over barbells when performing press exercises (be it bench, military, etc.) because it allows the shoulders more freedom of movement. Your thoughts?

- What's your take on Creatine?

- What's your take on Creatine?

- Body parts works fine

- If you are looking for definition, dumbells are ok. But if you want to put on size, you need to lift a lot of weight. Using very heavy dumbells gets awkward and you'll always need a spotter....much easier to get the same thing accomplished with barbells.

- I've never taken creatine so I can't tell you too much about it.

[diogenes]

- What's your take on Creatine?

Clearly, I am not MM, but you might want to look around here:

From what I recall, the mass market creatine is not the best form.
