Dont have access to these unfortunately, I gym from my shed.

 

You can pick up resistance bands fairly cheap from any sports store, or online. Some places sell it by the metre. Adding in band pull aparts, dislocations, face pulls and external rotations has done amazing things for my shoulder health.

 

And you got a few more reps, admit it.

 

You could try doing things like wrestler's bridge exercises, handstands and that kind of thing.

 

Yeah I do wrestlers bridges, theres only so much my head can take though!

 

Push up from the wrestler's bridge to as close of a gymnastics one you can manage, push into it and hold for 1-3 sec and repeat for perhaps 3 times if you can manage. Do this at the end of every work out

 

Don't know where you're from so I found both.

Those are a bit more expensive but they come as a pair. Most places sell bands single so this is a good deal.

Really those are effective, do they provide that much resistance? Maybe once I get a job I'll invest in some.

 

I've got 3 resistance bands bumpy. I'll post them you if you want/if I can find them.

 

Yeah sure if you dont mind, what do you even do with them?

 

You can pretty much do anything with them, curls, tri extensions, front/side raises, chest press etc. I'll try find them out and I'll post you them on monday If I can find them.

Getting a bit disheartened with this bulk, I swear its impossible for me to get past 15-15.2stone. I really really just can't be arsed to eat much more than I do already, **** knows how rugby players make it to like 20 stone.

 

How much are you eating atm? Before xmas I was taking in huge ammounts, although much of it was junk, KFC, Mcd's most days on top of the basics. I was blowing up way too fast so I started eating properly again for the new year, and feel better for it to.

 

Breakfast: Porridge, 2 eggs, 2 pieces of bread, a litre of whole milk.
Snack: 1 dl of something like peanuts, some fruit, some fatty and/or sugary drink
Lunch: 2 normal sized portions. Should take no less than 30´minutes to eat. A litre of whole milk to wash it down with.
Snack: something about equal to the first
Dinner: if off-day for weight lifting, eat for at least 1 hour. I used to do a pan pizza, the whole pan that is, with extra extra bacon, and washed it down with milk.
Snack: whatever you feel like, you need to be able to sleep without vomiting man.

Basically, if you're not working out, eating is your workout. If you want to gain weight while training hard, eating has to be at least as strenuous as working out.

 

That doesn't sound very much, I eat a fair bit right now like. I do drink a bit of milk but I don't want too much of it because it can give you man tits. Money comes into it too, I'm eating like two chicken breasts a day right now and some mince and then my shakes and it's ****ing expensive.

 

Steroids.

Not serious.

Conversely I cannot wait to start cutting. I'm gonna go on a slow ass cut for 6 months starting April. I'm just sick of being chubby, my face looks terrible and I hate the little handful of fat I can grab when I sit down. I'll probably look like a skinny runt but hey at least I can go on a fat old bulk afterwards
