from being skinny...chest not yet improved

[priitk]

I had the same problem when I first started lifting. Everything grew like a sprout and my chest was the size of a walnut. Just keep at it and your chest will be as big as en elephant.

from what I read I believe you're on the path of overtraining and injury. Take it easy and do the exercises slowly so you get the most out of them, take the time to warm up too and when you feel that you can't work a certain muscle anymore just stop and rest.

How heavy are the weights you're working with for the chest flys?

hyperthyroidism what is that!!

I don't do flys anymore, lets....
but when I was still overtraining, I'd say15-20 pounds per dumbbell.
Now, I only do dips and pullovers bec I saw it hits my chest really hard.
Before I came here, I used to do a lot and I MEAN A LOT of chest workouts. BUt now I break it down to only 2.
I do warm up pretty well.
And I do rest...one or two weeks after 3 months of training...

So, you think Hyperthyroidism has something to do with it, monkeyboy? How so?

Thanks
