Been lifting 6 months—arms grew a bit, but my chest’s stuck!
What’s a solid hypertrophy trick to blow it up?
I’m eating chicken and rice daily—enough?

Yo, volume’s king for hypertrophy!
I run a 4-day split—push/pull/legs/repeat.

• []10-15 sets per muscle weekly
  []8-12 reps, moderate weight
• Rest 60-90 secs

Nutrition? Slam 1.8g protein/kg—gains are rolling!

Took me years to crack this—progressive overload’s your hypertrophy hack. Started at 180 lbs, now 195, lean.
Tip: up weights 5% monthly, keep form tight. Nutrition’s 40% carbs, 30% protein—oats and whey FTW.

Plateau city here—
Bench stuck at 85 lbs, 3 months!

“Help me break this!”

Routine: 3x week, full-body, 10 reps—too light?

I’m on PHUL—Power Hypertrophy Upper Lower—4 days, mixing strength and size. Chest popped after drop sets—10 reps, strip weight, repeat ‘til failure. Struggle’s eating enough—aiming for 3500 cals, ugh.

Time under tension, fam!
Slow eccentrics—4 sec down— torches fibers.

1. Squat: 5x10, 70% 1RM
2. Bench: 4x12, 3 sec drop
3. Rows: 5x8

Eat leucine—3g post-lift—whey or eggs!

2 months in—shoulders won’t grow! Doing 3x10 presses, eating 100g protein daily—5’6”, 140 lbs. What am I missing? Vets, drop some wisdom!

Been smashing a 5-day bro split—chest, back, legs, shoulders, arms. Took 8 weeks to see traps—275 deads did it. Nutrition hack: peanut butter pre-bed, keeps me anabolic. Plateau buster? Switch grips—wide to narrow.

Recovery’s the secret sauce—
Sleep 8 hrs, gains explode.

“Routine:”

• []Push: 12 sets, 8-10 reps
  []Pull: 15 sets, 6-12 reps
• Legs: 10 sets, heavy

2g protein/kg, carbs up!
