I was wondering if it is possible to strength train and hypertrophy train at the same time. I want to gain a considerable amount of strength in my legs and lower back and want to gain a considerable amount of muscle on everything else. So would it be affective to do 3-6 reps on my legs and lower back, and do 8-12 on the rest of my body? What would be the optimum sets per exercise for these two training methods if possible to do at the same time? Thanks!

I’m 21 yrs old and have been lifting for about 2 years. My freshman year of college I weighed 170lbs at 6’3″ tall. I am now up to around 195lbs and was recently measured at about 12% body fat. For the past six months I have been working with routines that I based off of your videos (drop sets, etc) mixing it up every month or so. My typical week is:

Monday- Chest/Abs : Tues- Arms : Wed- Legs : Thurs- Back : Fri- Shoulders/Traps : Sat/Sun- Rest

+abs 3 to 4 days a week and playing basketball around 1 hr a day.

I have been gaining muscle slowly, but would like to really focus on increasing mass without increasing my body fat percentage. I eat cleanly and try to take in at least 3,500 calories a day. Could you please suggest a routine, or at least sets/reps/number of exercises I should be doing per muscle group in order to achieve my goal. Getting up to 200lbs lean would be a good start.

Let me tell you a little about myself first before I ask you guys my question. I am 29 years old 5’7” weight 150 pounds and have a body fat percentage of 14.69%. I have always been around the same weight maybe 10 pounds heavier at my worst and higher fat percentage but for the most part I have been fit and active all my life. My goal is to get more muscle definition. I do not necessarily want to get bigger as I need to stay agile and quick for my true passion (soccer) and I want maintain to that lean look. I do want my muscles to show more though. Should my goal be to build muscle or to loose fat? and if I should be working on building muscle should I go for a traditional muscle building splits or total body workouts? Oh, also I am already following the SHF meal plan and I take about 2500 calories with 400g in carbs 100g protein and 70g fat.

Hey guys, I want to throw in here before I get started on my question, you guys do an awesome job answering all the questions to the best of your ability.. Very informative… Ok to start my question..or maybe questions. I workout at about 6:30am 3-4 times per week as it’s the best time to fit my schedule. I would like to know if I should be eating food before my workout and if so what should I be eating, or should I just drink a protein shake before and breakfast after? Another, I’d say more of a favor, is what would be a good routine for me to use considering my schedule? Thank You in advanced for everything, keep up the awesome work.

Hi Folks, Just a question here since I am not sure how to answer this question myself. A friend of mine is just about to start working out with me ( I'm still not there though haha lol
). But we were wondering seeing his fat percentage is 23%. Would it work if he would maintain the Atkins diet ( little to no carbs but lots of protien ). To get leaner and some muscle growth ( not bulking ). So would that work for him or..?

@Seneziod Stretch marks are apart of bodybuilding/weight lifting, you cannot avoid them. The way you can get rid of them is by using Vitamin E pills by opening the capsule and spreading it on your skin, or using vitamin e lotion. I experienced stretch marks the first 2 months I started bodybuilding and they were all over my biceps.

I don't understand why people are hurting their brains over all thse questions about sets and reps, and whether they should do cardio before or after the workout etc…There are so many great strength/hypertrophy programs out there, why would anyone spend their time figuring out their own unique program when they don't even know how…what a waste of time.

Hi Scott,
You mentioned that Fernando should have got a C or D with 100 g of Protein. I have found some problems with the SHF meal plan including the required protein. I am 175 lbs and have a target of 77 to 271 g of protein according to the plan but I can get an A with only 90 g of protein. This is obviously not enough protein. I have found some other "problems" with the plan. Let me know if you are interested in this feedback.

Hi and thanks for the video. Youtube is perfect for this type of thing.

My buddy used to be bullied. He said he was going to get bigger muscle mass. I chuckled… Til he added 40lbs of full-strength lean muscle mass. He tried the Muscle Building Bible (look in Google). Not a soul dares to intimidate him nowadays. 🙂

I registered earlier this week. Not to mention the mans emails are awesome!!!

Glad I stubled onto this film. Youtube is fantastic for this sort of content.

My mate had been bullied. He explained he was about to get bigger. I chuckled… Til suddenly he added 40 pounds of complete lean muscle mass. He made use of the Muscle Building Bible – Google it. No-one dares to bully him these days. I actually signed up earlier this week. See what will happen. And the mans emails are fucking cool!!!
