whatever
:afro: As i said, in a previously post, my english suck bigtime, and ì`m having problems to understand this; "squat and your arms will grow".. Now, I`ve been looking for this "squat"-thing, and as far as i can tell, it`s an exercise for legs and back? So how the heck are my arms supposed to grow if so? I`m really new to all this training-stuff, but a man`s gotta do what he`s gotta do, so i figured "what the hell, i can`t stay this skinny for the rest of my life".. However, if someone could post a workout-program for a newcomer, that would be SO much appreciated.. AND, don`t just say "squat", and think i understand :flipoffha

here's another:
To start off; the first two weeks perform 12-15 reps on all exercises, then two weeks of 10-12 reps, then 8-10 reps, to 6-8 reps then four weeks of 4-6 reps. All warmups are a 10, 3, 1 rep scheme. You may need to add more singles as the weight goes up (or if you already have a suitable warm up, use it). Do a maximum of 6 sets per muscle group (except for a couple). After the four weeks of 4-6 reps, take a week off to completely recuperate the muscles.

Now the days go like this:

Day 1...................Arms
#1 DB hammer curls (5 sets; 3 warm up sets and then 2 working sets)
#2 Seated DB tricep press (same as above)
#3 BB (or ez bar) curls (2 sets)
#4 skull crushers (2 sets)
#5 alt DB curls (2 sets)
#6 reverse grip cable press downs (2 sets)

Day 2..................Legs/Abs (this is the only day that you will do 4-6 reps on the whole routine)
#1 DL (6+ sets with 3 working sets. Depends on how many warm up sets you need here,
but 3 will do until you get into the heavier weights then you will need more)
#2 BB hack squats (3 sets)
#3 Leg press (2 sets)
#4 Leg press calves (2 to 3 sets)
#5 one leg calf raise (2 sets)
#6 some sort of weighted ab exercise (3 sets of 8-10 reps)

NOTE: Now if you plan on doing squats instead of BB hack squats, do one of
two things: 1) alternate heavy squats and the deads each week [I.O.W. Heavy
squats one week then light DL then the other week light squats then heavy
DL] or 2) go light on the squats before the heavy DL each week.

Day 3..............Chest/Delts
#1 BB bench (5 sets; 3 warm up and 2 working sets)
#2 Incline BB (or DB) bench (2 sets)
#3 Decline BB bench (2 sets)
#4 seated DB Military press (2 sets)
#5 side lateral raises (2 sets)
#6 bent over side lateral raises (2 sets)

Day 4....................Back/Traps
#1 pullups (3 sets used for warm ups only)
#2 cable pull down (3 sets)
#3 BB rows (3 sets)
#4 cable rows (2 sets)
#5 BB shrugs (4 sets)
