    Any Opinions On This

    I think you are asking for too much. 25-30 pounds in 12 weeks, unless it is mostly water and fat, don't plan on adding that much muscle because it won't happen. And definitely not on 2500-3000 calories/day. Most people who add that much weight, end up with a 5-7 pound net wt. of pure muscle, the...

    Arms won't grow

    I guess when you think you have leg development at 6'7" 200lbs, narrow frame, its ok. Its his body. Squats separate men from boys. I would rather not train at all if I couldn't squat.

    going with push pull

    That's not the original routine. You took out the squats which was the first thing on that list for Monday, I don't know why because I would rather not train any bodypart if I couldn't squat. No one can tell you which routine to follow. We can only give you a basic routine with the basic ideas...

    Arms won't grow

    I would go ahead and edit this as well. For pre-workout, 1 scoop protein is fine with 1 cup oats (or 1 large pear) but add in 1-2 TBSP natural peanut butter.. Then for POST-workout, take 2 scoops protein with 3-4 packets of flavored oatmeal or other sugar (no high fructose corn syrup).. the last...

    Elbow/forearm pain..

    I had it in my right elbow as well but the inner part, i got it from squatting alot of weight, i couldnt press overhead or bench, it really sucked, it was from taking dbol as that increased my strength too fast. at the end of a workout i would curl a light dumbell for many reps as blood helps it...

    Gimmie a good routine!

    Do SLDL or assistance ex for deads on fridays (pull from floor once in 3-4 weeks). put traps on back/bis days, they don't go on chest/tris days. its part of your back. also cables are worthless.

    Mixed Sets - Not sure if that is the right word

    I think that you could be hindering your back growth like this. Db rents requires alot of bi use so fatiguing bis while doing back is going to prevent you from gaining more strength and size on your lats. Id rather just do back first, rest 5 minutes then hit bis.

    How many sets do you do?

    I guess it depends on what exercises you are doing. I do only squats for quads and deads/SLDL for hams/back so for me 3-4 SETS is ENOUGH if I'm training really heavy. I vary my squat stance, reps, type (box, pause, etc). I never do leg presses, leg extensions or any machines for legs OR back (or...

    What is the bare minimum one needs to eat, in order to maintain muscle/build it?!

    The only way to find out is just to eat and see how a certain amount of food affects you. Try to gauge the amounts by just looking at your plate and listening to your body. If you aren't gaining strength or look any bigger or aren't adding weight, just increase the portions. Keep it simple, you...

    Big Side Delts

    Yes I like your training too. I will see how this works with the ohp with chest/tris day and if I feel like i'm not growing fast enough I will do either 2 things: A) Alternate starting that day with OHP then db upright rows or side laterals, then do my chest presses and tris OR B) Like you...

    Big Side Delts

    I think I will focus on increasing my overhead pressing poundages. I used to do the 3 day a week full body workout but I don't like it. I currently just changed my routine to a somewhat DC style training but I customize my own training. I only do compound movements anyway Mon...
