IMO... Lower body training will develop strength and size. If you are looking for a good strength and base beginning for bodybuilding I would look at Cory Gregory's Squat Everyday.

The best chest routine I've personally tried is Arnold's Blueprint (just google that). It KILLS your chest. As far as same body part more than once a week, I have been squatting everyday now for 86 days now and frequently use a push/pull/legs routine. My favorite PPL routine is from here…

Also, if you have a plate loaded leg press, you can put your feet at the top of the platform and it will concentrate the motion on your Posterior Chain, hitting both…

Do you have the ability to do standing leg curls using a cable machine? I found this much more effective and smoother than seated or lying leg curls.

I have competed in the INBF (Natural/drug tested organization) and I have my first NPC show in March, currently 107 days out and doing a 16 week prep. You don't really NEED a coach to compete. Unless you are getting ready for a National show or you're an IFBB pro going for a pro show.

The MOST difficult thing to do in fitness is the lean bulk because it is SLOW. I sincerely attempted a lean bulk and this could just be my experience but it was not successful. I then went onto doing a regular "bulk". What I was doing was taking my TDEE and adding anywhere between 500-700 CLEAN. I was treating it like…

Look at http://www.bodyrock.tv/, a lot of body weight workouts there and a lot of good literature towards cutting and toning that might fit your lifestyle with such a calorie restriction.
