    What's this forum about?

    OK we all talk about aiming for an elite physique... some of us get there... and the way to be inspired is to go to these competitions and see it being done :)

    IM 18, started lifting hard about a year ago hard- ( lifted in high school for football and wrestling in high school.... but never 5 times a week nor cardio, really didnt do it for myself, did it b/c i had to)... my diet is pretty clean.. every now and then i eat a hold jar of natural peanut butter or so... My metabolism is kicked up alot... ( i use to be reallly husky..) im around 170-180 depending on how much i eat..... i've been on and off 1-ad and androstat poppers. i also started using v-12 by san (creatine with transporters) ..... Im actually a nice size now but i wanna get bigger... i will be playing d-1 football in the spring (fullback) so i wana put on good size... i know what i have to do... is there any other tricks i can try other then supplements and stuff... Believe me for being 18 i know most of the tricks already as far as diet and supplement use... ( basically just reading posts, and assking around)........


    THe real reason im posting this is to ask this question :

    I wanna get strong, but i feel as that I've platueatued out... should i start training for power lifting ( such as power moverments) rather then bodybuilding lifting.... its kinda hard to explain...... then after a year or so of power training... go back to physique building? i heard that it will help increase my strength and help me overcome my plateau... so i can now lift heavier weights to get a better physique?

    thanks.... #44

    IMO bro, eat a shit load of good food! lift heavy and forget football.. unless you afl meterial, then keep it up!

    here are some power moves that have helped me go from 18 year old 75 kg - to a 93 kg 23 year old.

    weighted dips, weighted chins, deadlifts, squats, stiff legged dead lifts, negative curls, military press.

    stick with these movements and you'll get the size and thickness you need. if you want specifics on this routine let me know.

    The aim of the game is to simply take up more space :-)

    think he is an american dwpetty.

    Your training should be all power related really if your taking your footy seriously.

    power cleans, hang cleans, jump squats, lunges, push press, explosive bench press, bench pulls, chins, squats, deads


    HUNT'R

    HUNT'R is spot on the money, this way you will be able to prevail in both sports.Remember that excessive cardio activity is not the best way to put on muscle. Even if your not taking your footy seriously if I were you I would incorporate some of the moves mentioned by HUNT'R and monitor your progress so that you can pin point exactly what sort of moves assist your progress. GOOD LUCK.

    Somehow I think that post is a little late....

    Don't train power for a year you'll burn out. Cycle your training. By that i mean do youe power training for 6-10 weeks 2x4-6 reps on Deadlift, bench press, Bentover rows, and squats. Then fill the rest of your trainig session with other excercises e.g Over head Db tricep extenisons, Chin ups, etc. Train 3 days a week Chest/tris, back/bis, Legs/shoulders. 30min-45min session max. Reasons for all the above. I day rest between each session to allow endocrine and nervous system adaptations each body part once per week to allow overcompensation of muscle fibres and 30min-45min session to allow for maximum concentraion and power and if your lifting heavy enough you won't be able to go much longer then this.
