Depends. Today I did 2 hours of arms plus 23min of cardio. I am thinking of switching to fullbody routines. I do so much different things and its fun to try out different training routines.


well just keep letting me know how much time you spend in the gym, because i CANNOT BE OUTDONE. you are kinda crazy and might put in more time in the gym than me, but if you put in 3 hours ill have to do 4

IMO, I think (and I might be wrong) you might not spend enough time on any one routine to get its benefits..food for thought.

Yeah I don't know what's wrong with me. I start a routine and the max I keep at it is about a month. Now its barely a week. I have to outtrain everybody. or maybe not cause it feels like I ripped my tricep..

you live you learn. some exercizes i do not do, especially for triceps, we cant do every single exercise out there some exercises could be potential for injury. like skullcrushers they would fuck up my elbows if i tried them

Speak on this.

I'm curious to see what opinions pros have on this...

Squat, pull ups, bench.

Actually i think some ppl at the gym i go to only know three exercises:  curls, crunches and bench.  But thats probably cuz theyre gay-ass frat boys.
