Re: Bulking Up (Getting Ripped Before School)
[ QUOTE ]
Gotta do squats bro. Working the largest muscles in your body stimulates growth hormones including testosterone. Everyone knows why you don't do 'em - you have chicken legs and they are friggin agony to do. But you have to sack up and do em. Jakethesnake is right (for once) - do exercises that work your largest, integrated muscle groups. From, another skinny fella (I was 6'2" 140 my freshmen year of college) [/ QUOTE ] 6'2" and 175 when college started, here. And I looked damn skinny -- small bone structure. At 200 now, I still look damn skinny!

[ QUOTE ] Rowing is not a good exercise for building mass. It will tone you and make you stronger, but to gain mass you must lift heavy weights. Also, doing it every day is a terrible idea as you grow when you are resting, not when you are working out. [/ QUOTE ] Rowing isn't great for building mass. But come on, does the OP really want mass? No, he wants to look decent with his shirt off. You don't do "just arms" looking for mass. And this whole business about "needing" days off....nah. I rowed in college, I only has Sundays off. I build plenty of muscle without much rest [/ QUOTE ] You probably would have built more and faster with more rest. Also, most people would probably not have gained as much as you did. Rest is very important.

Re: Bulking Up (Getting Ripped Before School)
Try to go to the gym five times a week, one day each for biceps/triceps, chest, back, shoulders, and legs. Eat five small meals throughout the day. Keep it healthy, especially high in protein and low in fat, like salmon, egg whites, chicken, etc. Also, after every workout drink some milk with whey protein .

I swear, when I first saw this thread, I thought 'bulking up' was some sort of new slang for smoking weed first thing in the morning.

[ QUOTE ]
I do workout my chest a little bit - I'm just not concerned with my legs. I've been walking fine for 16 years or so - no need to change them. [/ QUOTE ] not working your legs is one of the most anti-productive thing you can do towards achieving your goal.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] p.s. gaining 15 pounds of muscle in a month is not possible. [/ QUOTE ] This is false. [/ QUOTE ] This is false. [/ QUOTE ] This is true. It is virtually impossible for the OP to gain 15 lbs of lean mass in one month, especially because of the low weight he is already at. Even with roids its virtually impossible to gain that weight in such a short amount of time.
