Sure. I've got some routines you can try out, I am a huge fan of body resistance and ballistic training. Weights have their place, but if you bench 350 pounds, and still can't carry your suitcase from the plane to the car without getting winded, you're not getting the results you need. PM as sometimes I need specifics you may not want people knowing about. On a personal note, just a routine disclaimer from me that the advice is free, and you do any routines at your own risks. That said, feel free to drop me a line anytime. My goal is a world of muscled, trained geeks who dominate the food chain once and for all. GRIN.

If you were like me loosing weight wouldn't be too high priority.
Personally I can lift/bench max 60lbs. I read somewhere that humans only use their muscles at about 1% of actual strength (I think, I read it a while back so I can't remember all the details). It also said that accessing your full muscular potential could and probably would destroy your muscles. A totally different source said that humans can only access 10% of their brains on average. 15% is the most that has been accessed. 20% borders on telepathy. 25% would have Telikinesis. 30% and you would probably be able to recite all the collective knowledge of anybody who ever lived. If anybody could access full mental potential they would be vaporized by their knowledge. God is the only one with full access to the brain/mind. Anyway I'm going to vanish from this thread for awhile. I have wings and wicked awesome Counterstrike. Trust me on this, I am INSANE |

As far as destroying muscles, the increase in strength is basically caused by damaging the muscle with the overload caused by the weight lifted. The muscles heal stronger. If a lifter was working out his biceps, for example, using 100% of the muscle, any training effect would also basically leave you without the use of his arm for a couple days. He wouldn't be able to perform any significant forearm flexion, or anything closely resembling it. I remember hearing about some guy about a decade ago that would basically train lifters to use more of the muscles. It ended up doubling 1 rep max lifts. Follow the adventures of Agent Minivann
