okay, you need to spend a few days reading posts in the training AND nutrition sections. THere are numerous w/o's listed as well as diet advice for gaining weight. Read for a week and get some stuff narrowed down and repost

second off.....my main concern more than legs is arms and chest...just like almost everyone else.....usually i start out my work out doing bench....since thats what i want to gain the most on.....i do 8X70 percent of my max 6x75, 4x80,4x 85,and 2X95.....then i do curls ...21's with 2 and a halfs on the bar, then 8 curls with 5's on the bar,6 with 60 pounds,4 with 65 and 2 with 70.......then up right rows.....2 sets of 10 upping the weight each time then one set of 8 upping the weight....then i do tricep push down.....3 sets of 10 with the same weight..... then lat pull down 3 sets of 10 upping the weight each time....then incline bench with the same reps as i do on bench....and thats all.....while this work out might not be intense or as extensive as all of you guys who are hard core veterans i guess its a start.....but what am i doing wrong....what lifts and reps should i add? should i change my reps and percents?....i want the maximum gain i can out of the time and energy i put into it.

also my left tricep is way bigger than my right....to the point where it makes my left arm look bigger......how should i go about fixing this....maybe i push down harder with my left arm??? should i just do skull crushers with dumbells???? or just use a bar??? or what.???


sorry for such a long post....and all help is greatly apprecaited
