WEll at that light of a bodyweight and age...the only thing that could help ur arms and abs look better is to lift... plus at a young age, its hard to get real nice looking biceps...abs are diff though.

Maybe your thighs, I can't tell- Pic's too dark. Everything I can see looks great- Nice arm definition, same for chest and abs- Anyway, you should really post something about how and what you eat, since that means more than supps when it comes to building muscle OR losing fat- Also, if I were you, I'd stop lifting three times a day. you're overdoing it, muscle needs time to recover and rest- More than a couple of days. Most people around here work every muscle only once or twice a week, so you might want to think about switching your routine up a lot- Check out the training forum, there's plenty of good routines in there, or you could look at some of the online training journals of some of the other members.

Check out the nutrition form, near the top there's a post titled "Calculate expenditure". This'll show you how to figure out how many calories a day you need to grow more muscle- Once you know how many you need, put all the food you it into Fitday.com's database and see what you come up with- It'll let you know how many calories you're actually getting from what you eat now. Then, head over to our nutrition forum again and post that info, and ask for more specific diet help. That's the first step to getting bigger. Next, training- When it comes to lifting, you should hit each major muscle group once or twice a week- Your routine could look like this- Monday- Chest Tuesday- Legs Wednesday- Shoulders Thursday- Back Friday- Arms For each muscle group, do three exercises, three sets each exercise. Or, for working everything twice a week, you could try something like this- Monday- Chest and back Tuesday- Legs and shoulders Wednesday- Abs and arms Thursday- Chest and back Friday- Legs and shoulders Same thing, three exercises for each muscle group, three sets each- You might notice that abs and arms only get hit once a week with this plan, but the arms and abs are actually used quite a bit when you're working out the other muscle groups with the proper exercises. Also, when it comes to the number of reps you're doing, you might want to switch that up too- Instead of sticking to certain numbers for each set, you should be challenging the muscles within a certain rep range. For example, your first set is for 12 reps- What do you do if you can do more than that? Or, more importantly, if you can do more reps on your last set of six reps? What you should do is do every set within the same range, say six to eight or eight to ten reps- Pick a weight that on your first set, you can do no more than the higher number, and try to stay within that rep range for each set. To answer your question about how long before you see results, it should take about three to four months before you notice real visible changes. This happens any time you really change things up- Your body takes a while to adapt, it doesn't happen overnight.
