Muscle Gain Forum

Took me almost a year before I looked like I even lifted lol. Before that it was just numbers going up and me second guessing everything.

Honestly old school bodybuilding vids hit way harder for me. Less talking, more lifting. Feels more real than these 15 sec edits.

Sometimes I take an active rest day instead of full rest. Just light walking or stretching to recover.

Tempo reps helped me rebuild confidence. Slow on the way down, pause, then press. Way better control.

I tried it solo and felt nothing. Started taking it with vitamin C like people suggest, and it actually made a difference.

Once-a-week can work, but you can’t phone it in. Bro split days need to be focused and hard, not 20 sets of junk volume.

Early mornings are brutal, but nothing beats having the workout done before the day wrecks your schedule.

Weighted dips all day. I swear they translate crazy well to bench when you keep them controlled. Once I hit +45 lbs for sets of 8, my bench shot up.

Film from the side. If the rounding happens before the bar moves, it’s a setup problem. If it happens during the grind, that’s more normal.

And don’t forget to warm up those joints properly. Most tendon issues come from going heavy while still “cold.”
