2.5kg gain on Dumbell Shoulder press today :3 Now doing 20kg per hand on it. Congrats!!! Shoulders are one of my favorite muscles, but I really cant go over 6-8kg when doing 4 sets. 12 kg is my max for a single set. My PR is so damn weak but then again I've only lifted seriously for 2 months. I really need to step up my game.

Honestly took me 3 or 4 months to get that 2.5kg gain xD

I've never heard of any of those. I personally recommend Cellucor C4 if you can get your hands on it. Search some reviews on those pre-workouts though if you're going to get one of them though. I just don't know anything about them really and don't have enough time to go through all of them to find the best one for your price so I don't want to give you an uneducated answer. I looked everywhere for C4, they don't have it. Read reviews about NO-xplode - apparently gives you good energy and kicks in within 30 mins only. But it only lasts for about an hour and they keep on reducing ingredients and servings every year. Ok pre-workout really. Everybody seems to side with Jack3d. All I heard was positive feedback. Takes time to kick in though, which I lack. Gonna get supps sometimes this week and pay for gym membership. So, anyone else likes lifting? Yeah lifting is pretty kewl. I used Jack3d before. Its good but not as strong as the original formula. Still looking for a pre workout that can help me keep up with my workouts.

I've been off the gym for 4 months. So this is my first legs and shoulders day and last time I cameback to the gym after a break, I did an intense legs routine, so intense my legs gave up on me while doing shoulders. I couldnt even do 6kg. My legs were shaking af and I was about to fall.
Do you think I should start with shoulders or legs? (I'll need energy for legs)

Then do Shoulders and Arms on one day. Spread this out over a week and take rest days. So example. Monday: Legs Tuesday: Rest Wednesday: Chest Thursday: Rest Friday: Back Saturday: Shoulders and Arms Sunday: Rest Just something simple like that with good workout routines = Gainz

Working two muscles the same day takes me 2hrs + and I workout at night after class so I don't have enough energy. When I come home I'm basically done and cant do any homework. My gym is only available tuesday thursday and sat so I dont have a way out. I have two 12 kg dumbbels at home and doorway pull up bar though. Ended up doing legs and calves only. Only took me around an hour which is fantastic. Gym wasnt crowded at all. So satisfied. Will hit shoulders at home tomorrow.

Got Gold Whey and NO xplode pre workout today. I have class till 6pm tmw and I'm not hitting gym for chest/biceps before 7 so I'm looking forward to see how effective that is.
I have my bulking meal plan ready but I've always wondered what is bulking good for if you lose all the fat after cutting season? You also lose all definition and look fat. Dont get me wrong I need to get big bad, I got shredded before but I was still small. So I'm wondering if I should just cut directly or...

When you cut you become more lean and defined while still managing to keep the same amount of muscle on. You just end up lowering your body fat percentage. When you bulk you gain a lot of muscle, hence why you become stronger. So cutting is just keeping that muscle but losing the added fat.

But I don't see whats bulking good for if youre gonna lose all the fat you gain after cutting.

Any suggestions for healthy food that doesnt take alot to preapre and is cheap? When I lost weight I ate oatmeal for breakfast and salads for lunch and dinner. I didn't want spend much money or prepare much so I just got tins of tuna, prepared salads and instant oatmeal.

Tried pre workout twice, figured out my body doesn't reply to it. Didnt feel it kicking in nor felt a pump. What it does is keep me from sleeping as I take it at 7pm. 55 bucks gone smh.
Also wondering how many meals/calories you take per day when bulking?

Also wondering how many meals/calories you take per day when bulking? TDEE calculator. This one is pretty modest in its estimation. I've searched around and used some that estimate higher and lower... iifym.com/tdee-calculator/ Anyway, take the kcal number it spits out for your estimated maintenance and add about 300 to that number for a couple weeks, and see how it goes. If you're not gaining weight, maybe bump it up to a 500 kcal surplus per day. Meals? It is pretty much a negligible difference. Make sure you're getting your calories.

I have 6 meals at this time and I calculated my bmr and calories but it doesnt seem to be sufficient for me. Though its different for everyone I wanna know how many cals/meals per day to know if Im on the right track

So I'm currently on a bulk, with a 500 calorie surplus. Today hasn't been the best day food wise, ate well over my surplus. Had an extra 1,116 calories over my needs (Not including 500 cal surplus). So hopefully this doesn't turn into something regular over the holidays otherwise I'll end up with more fat gains than muscle gains

My cardio has stayed strong since the summer. My usual run is 3.5 miles. The first 2 miles is at 8:27 & the last mile & a half is at 8:00.
My shoulder is FINALLY to a point where I feel comfortable attempting an upper body workout on a regular basis. My sister bought me the Triple H workout DVD as a Christmas gift/half joke. But I'm actually kinda interested to see what, if anything I can use from it.
