  • Didn't say I was. Just that as a comparison, 45 minutes can be effective in the gym. As for the point in which you "over do it". Depends on what you do and you as a person I guess.

  • He states it in one of his "blood and guts" videos. He is a "HIIT Trainer". High intensity and minimal rest periods. He also seems to do 2 sets rather than 3,4 or even 5.

  • I used to do 90mins easy, but i have tried to cut down to an hour. Dorian Yates says never be in the gym for more than 45 mins because lifting (or Bodybuilding) is not an endurance sport. You want to tear the muscle then get out and eat and recover. My cut in time is due to reduced rest periods and including supersets…

  • I have 2 leg days. One where i focus Quads and one where i focus hams. If i merged them: Leg Ext.

  • You can do a million and one things with just dumbbells. Assuming you have decent weight range on your home dumbbells, I'd personally I'd start learning the bigger compound movements first and add an extra movement to that muscle group, then add exercises as you go. 4 sets of 10-12 reps Chest: Bench press with Flyes Legs:…

  • If you want a decent and economical powder then look at Bodybuilding warehouse's range. (assuming you're in the UK?) Don't dismiss because of the word bodybuilding. Whey is whey at the end of the day and its use is to fill protein macros and get them muscles repairing immediately after lifting.…

  • It depends on you. I go to the gym 4 times a week and have been for a long time. If you're a 20 year old male, then i'd say 50kg on a barbell wont be enough in a few weeks (not that it looks like that much will fit on there!)
