When it comes to doing everything possible to make those front thighs grow, you have tried it all. You’ve tried high intensity (with a few heavy sets). You’ve trained with high volume protocol (with many lighter weight sets). You may have thought you’ve covered both extremes, but there is one very tough method that you have not yet encountered, that you may want to consider, if the goal of your leg day is to pack those quadriceps muscle which as much blood as humanly possible. That, of course, is high volume, high intensity training. It’s not for beginner trainers, no for the faint of heart. But if you have the guts to lift heavy – for what is not a brief amount of time – then this just might be the right training protocol for ...

Q: I’m an aspiring bodybuilder doing everything I can to make muscle gains. However, I just can’t budge the scale even a single pound, no matter how much I try to eat. I am 6 foot 1, 185 pounds at around 12% body fat. Please help me get my ducks in a row so I can start growing! A: If you are only 6 foot 1 inches, you have some serious growing to do to fill out your frame. The bad news is that such a process can take several years.

Bodybuilders like Bill Pearl and Casey Viator exemplified outstanding forearms in the 1950s and 1960s.  In the 1970s, Serge Olivia was king of the forearms.  The 1980s saw thick, insane forearms on men like Bertil Fox.  In the 1990s, Steve Brisbois had perhaps the best ‘hamhocks’ in the business.  And today, top pro Phil Heath is known for his almost cartoon-like forearms. First off, it should be noted that some bodybuilder never train their forearms.  Their forearms receive secondary stimulation from gripping the barbell, on exercises such as deadlifts and barbell rows. They also become highly involved in arms exercises such as barbell and dumbbell curls, and on triceps movements, to a lesser extent.  Seeing as they are professional bodybuilders with a wealth of contributing factors (proper nutrition, amazing genetics, and superior steroid stacks), the combination of these factors plus the ...

When I was in the sales world, I realized quickly that you do not get paid for simply showing up or pretending to work. Most people get paid for working eight hours a day. However, how much work is actually being done in those eight hours? From what I saw, not too much. At least half of the day was wasted on gossip, doing tasks inefficiently, wasting time in unnecessary meetings and talking about things instead of taking action. Just pretend for a minute that you are in sales and imagine what you would do if your boss makes you the following offer: do the required amount of sales for the day and you can go home anytime you want. Moreover, if you meet your monthly quota in two weeks, take the rest of the month off. What would you do? Personally, I would ...
