Dooooooooo


I am 16 years old and i've always been skinny, constantly trying to gain weight. I workout 3 times a week and take weigh protein after each workout. What else can I do to bulk up. Nothing seems to work. I've been doing this for 2 years now


Answer
ok man, firstly im right there with ya.
secondly, its not impossible. heres some tips for skinny blokes building weight; muscle.

at 16 - 20 ur metabolism is still gunna be super quick. but watch it past 20 years old because it slows the f*ck down and then you start piling on the pounds o.O

however sometimes it doesnt slow down, anyway either way it doesnt matter. right now heres some tips.

when you do heavy weight training (anaerobic) you also need to do aerobic training for it to do any good. so the 3 days out of the week ur working out, make 2-4 days dedicated to aerobic (runnings the best i reckon). These can be during your weight training workouts at the gym aswell.

so normal fitness is important before weights. Running is excellent, seriously. it takes less time than all the others and gets ur body pounded way faster, and u can notice the difference between ur distances, running a little further each time, and it feels good.

if you got the cash get a nike+ipod adapter, nike ready shoes and an ipod nano and record ur workouts seamlessely =]

now. doing the weights.
there are sloppy as hell workouts, and then there are workouts that are gunna make a difference.

which one are you doing?.
have you noticed guys at the gym will spend only about 5 min on each machine before hopping on the next one?

i make it a rule to do as many reps of whatever it is as you can before you simply cant pull or push anymore, and then move on to another muscle group.


For skinny guys, squats, dips, military press, and bench press are a MUST. if you dont know what these are then google em.

get advice about squats. you should be squatting whatever kills you after 5 squats. the 6th you wont be able to get back up. then keep doing that until you can do 3 sets of 5 reps (15 squats) of that weight.

only then can you move on to heavier squat weights.

bench press is sort of the same. cept reps of 8 are good.

3sets of 8reps of bench press before you are KILLED is what you should be aiming for. have about 2 minutes break between sets, stretch during the breaks.

dips, same story. do sets of 20 and see how many sets you can do. 3 sets of 20 dips should get you on the ground aching.

after your almost dead in the gym, then hit the dumbells!

bicep curls. i do 10 X 3 on each arm with 12kg.
miliatry presses. 8 X 3 with 12kg.
lateral raises. 3 X 5(sets) with 8 kg

more sets with less resistance cause lateral raises are a bitch.

anyway after all that you will be curb f*cked. take as long as you need to get completely enhilated on each machine before moving on to the next, your muscles will love you for it.

protein shakes are great, but also solid proteins!

chicken, eggs, tuna fish, cottage cheese, almonds etc etc.

when you have a workout that intense, it may take you 3 days just to recover! which means your doing well. DURING those 3 days, AEROBIC EXERCISE. biking is good, running might hurt your pecs since theyre bouncing up and down.

horizontal / vertical cross trainers are the best choice! so youl need to go back to the gym to do your aerobics.

good luck =]

What age should my child learn how to tie his shoes and ride a bike without training wheels?

I want answers from parents who have multiple children and know the correct answer to this question, PLEASE! no teenage kids that think they know how to give advice :o)
Please list the ages that your children were when they learned these things .. i am trying to figure out if my son is progressing as he should be .. he does have hyperactivity disorder and is on medicine.
Thanks :)
He turned 5 this month & isnt in kindergarten yet .. should i let loose and not worry so much?!



Answer
6 on the bike at least half of kids are riding a two wheeler without training wheels @ the start of 1st grade. The bike range though is the same as beginning reading 4-8 is the typical acquisition of these things. The bike is also how much access a child has to it. Because this generation of kids don't play freely outside unsupervised like we did, its growing later.

Tying laces, its expected by 2nd grade, most kids can do it earlier if they are taught. The velcro invention has really thrown the present generation of kids back on the shoe tying.

I'm 38, rode a bike @ 4 1/2, tied shoes @ 5 1/2

My children have complex developmental delays
they are 10 yrs today bike riding he doesn't do (dyspraxic), but read @ 6, tying shoes he can do sloppily and has been able to do since 7.

My 5 yr old has been reading since 3, can't ride a bike or tie shoes. Haven't begun either with him. He loves to peddle a trike though.

My 4 yr old does none of these he still has trouble dressing himself. He really doesn't even peddle a trike.

just look @ bikes in the toy stores. It used to be that a 12" bike came with training wheels, now 16" and even 20" come with them.
