I must not be that bright! The science behind the bodybuilding suggest, it is complicated. It could be it's beyond my comprehension. What I have read is that when you eat a deficit there is going to be muscle loss.

Please enlighten me.

it's been working for me the past 15 years and it's was part of the training I did to stand on stage in a bodybuilding show. Took home first place for my age class

with any muscle group I always seen the best results when failure is achieved. After a warm up, I start heavy and then pyramid down, raising the reps. When I can't do any more I do negatives till failure. I do not workout that muscle group again for at least 7 to 10days

isn't that a contradiction? how do you cut and heavy lift?

You're doing great, keep up the good work

I've lived in 5 states and been in gyms in everyone. The gym of yester year is gone. It can be as friendly as you make it. I would say find someone who is training at your level. A power lifter or bodybuilder that has been working out would not make a good training partner. You could hire a trainer or ask someone to give…

Where to start. The first bodybuilding show. Running a marathon. At 50 years of age, the vanity is about gone but I do feel good when i take my shirt off on the beach.
