do all your curls one after another. don't do one set then do ll the other body parts and then do two sets again. do biceps and finish bicep. and if you do incline curls then you should get some results. i dunno maybe you r cheating in them. i used to cheat all the time when i did incline curls and realized that in my last workout. let your arm go all the way down to the side. and you may want to squeeze, purely optional though. remember just do the perfect form. let the incline go all the way down and lift it without moving your body or lifting your head.

hope this helps.

good luck.

well your a girl, females can never get as big as males, its just the way it is, dont worry about the size other boys are. :)


and yea, you really need to organize your routine better, and hows your nutrition, do you have any idea how much protein you are taking in.

Read all Jeromes posts.   Getting ripped - is not the exercise only -that is fat reduction. if enough fat is shrinked from the body any body ...... will look ripped . The funny thing is fat comes off slower than it is put on.  And womans -  put on fat faster than a man do.

hi Swiftpaw. this is my first post here, but here i go....

I'm 22 now, but wrestled in High School when I was your age. I was far more ripped then then I am now, but I had some other things working for me... Testosterone as you mentioned, plus i was a BMX racer, and played football in the fall. so i was ALWAYS pushing it cardio wise, and started hitting the weights when i was 15. so by 16 i was really getting there.

How long have you been at the weights? Muscle development will help a lot in burning fat. not because fat turns into muscle though, don't get confused. a lot of people do...
I would raise the jog to 2 miles, keep at the weights, and watch nutrition.

as far as bulk, shape, size etc....everyone has a different body structure. if appearence is very important, you might try to figure out what your body structure woud look like toned, find a celebrity or body builder with a similar shape and work towards that!

Oh, don't you worry sweetie! You will get the guns you so desire!! You are so young and you're still growing. It will take time. I'm 25 now and I started lifting when I was 19. During that time my bi's grew 2 inches (from 10 - 12 inches) and they look good now. I'm still not completely happy because I always want more! Being a girl it's practically impossible to get "huge" unless we're on some type of steroid, which I HIGHLY advice against! Anywho, I've noticed that I haven't changed size in a long while, but I look a lot more cut. I keep gaining on lifts too (slowly but surely). I would up the protein and keep some in every meal you have. Egg Whites, chicken, low fat turkey, tuna in water, salmon (good fats), and protein powder are all good sources of protein that you can consume. I eat a lot of cottage cheese too (be careful, some people can't handle dairy). Just keep at it and DON'T give up! Girls can gain muscle, it's just not nearly as fast as a guy. I look feminine still, but I get a lot of comments on my "guns". It's amusing though because they look bigger than they really are. That's where diet (lifestyle) comes into play. The lower percentage of bodyfat you have, the more "ripped" you look. Don't drop weight too fast though, because then you lose that precious muscle! Good luck and I agree w/ the others...more structure w/ your lifting. Keep reading too. Also, do you ever read Oxygen magazine? It rules and there are some beautiful female competitors in there w/ BIG GUNS! :) Good luck!  Smile

umm  the females in body building.. the ones who have arms like men chest like men legs like men...  Do you want to be a man?  have you heared these women talk?  I notice every single time when i hear one of them they sound like a 16 year old male going through puberty or a He/she.  Think about what it is you are saying?..    And if you really want to take that route thats fine  get some steroids once every year or two  take them 3 months out of the year  take some anti hormones.  and then in your fifth year of training take a good look in the mirror and realize that you have taken male hormones to become a man.  

I think the best looking thing on a woman is when her arms are cut  her whole body chizzled  perfectly cut.  You will never in your life have 18 inch arms..  and 16 would be nasty looking  i think 13 - 14 and ripped might look really nice though.

yes that true.  Without taking steroids, it is impossible for a women to gain as much muscle as a man. Your workout looks fine, maybe try eating more meat, and up your protein intake.

I big part of it has to do with genetics too! Genetics, diet, and your intensity levels in your workout.... I am 22 I have roughly been working out since high school, but... in the past year training  for bodybuilding.... I have gained so much and still am! I went from 12.5 to 13.5 in bis and my legs have gained more mass than I ever expected... But then I ate right, trained hard and let my body do the work! :)
