Need some weight lifting advice.
I am lifting weights and coing cardio. I have shown some muscle growth and toning after 30 days. My question is, will do the exact same routine (but increasing the weight when I can) be sufficient for continuing to shock muscle growth, or do I need to add in no routines? Thanks!

I don't drink alcohol very often. Say maybe a glass of wine 2-3 times a month. Maybe 2 beers a month. Does any consumption of alcohol at all effect muscle growth etc? Probably not would be my opinion. But I know many of you have a lot more knowledge than I.
