Sunday, July 31, 2005 7:47 PM
16 years old 123 pounds Bench about.. 120 or somewhere around there So I'm told i shouldnt work out a muscle more than 2 times a week... i do 2 sets of 10 reps for biceps @ 25 lbs and same routine for triceps @ 12 lbs..  yes weak i know.. ive been doing this for a while and cant seem to bulk up at all.. my goal is to just bulk up a bit.. i have a thin waist and my stomach and lower back area look really thin if that makes any sense... my arms and shoulders need work too... after every workout i take this "Champion Nutrition Ultramet" powder shake that my dad used to use... but it doesnt seem to work.. basically im in need of major help and i dont know where to begin i guess... i need to know how many reps/sets for oh lets say triceps and biceps. thanks in advance.

Ok, to build a total physique, you need to work every muscle. not just arms. look around on the forums, your question has been answered many times on here. As a beginner, you can work each muscle twice per week, as you become more advanced(ie. 2 years of training) that will likely come down to once a week, but intense sessions.To bulk up, you have to eat alot, but good foods, not empty calorie food like mcdonalds. Those foods will make you fat, which is not what you want. How tall are you? That will give me a chance to see how thin you are.

Forget supplements you need full body workouts and proper nutrition. See 8packs post in the teen forum "Bulking up for teens"

Also look at "weight training for beginning teens" in the same board.
