Tbh I've got pretty beefy legs already, from a youth of being parentally forced into long distance running.
I want to only really work on upper body, I'm kinda scrawny there.

60% of all your muscle mass is in your legs and back, are you telling me effective and efficent development of muscle mass can be derived by cycling/running/rowing? Get real.
Deadlifts/squats/lunges/lat pulldowns/bent over rows/pull ups etc are the bedrock and foundation of muscular hypertrophy. whether you like it or not yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooou have to do em. start light, develop good form, build the weight up slowly.
i dont give a chuff if you're legs are burning. I hear it all the time "oh oh if i can feel it, it must be working". So if i kick you in the nuts will that be working for your dumb ass too?
You need to build everything gradually, can't just concentrate on upper body because you "already have beefy legs". As you're not used to working out your body requires core workouts to get into the routine before you can start doing specific muscle exercises.
Pff, too much bother. I've already noticed an improvement on general muscle definition in chest/biceps and haven't even been working that hard. I don't want my legs to get any bigger.
enjoy your sparrow legs i guess.
Blackbelts are just whitebelts who have never quit.

Stop posting in this thread. If you aren't going to listen to advice, these guys don't have time for you.Finray wrote:

Go off and do whatever you want, I don't particularly care. Just don't fill this thread with shit.
personally i love doing squat, deadlifts no so much but i still do them
It's kinda a unwritten rule, to always inculde one exercise you hate into your workout. Builds character!

It's not that I hate doing legs it's just I don't want them any bigger.
I'm still around 144 pounds. I went on a date with a girl a while back and she asked me if I did coke. The date kinda sucked at that point. Since I'm skinny she thought I was a coke head. :S

Macbeth how tall are you? I'm 5" 9/10 and about 145-150lbs, and I don't look crack whore skinny.
I'm 5'9 also and I don't look crack addict skinny either. I just found it funny in retrospect.Finray wrote:

Getting those tear drop quads has always been a goal of mine

Fingay, get some pressups going and get some protein in you. theres a start.
Chest/Biceps today
Been able to gradually increase BP quite nicely since I restarted. Good stuff.

Im starting to develop them, its awsm. Ive also got some vasuclarity that has been popping up right along that line between the upper/lower quad area. Its sucks man, my calves are soooo tiny, but my quads are strong and pretty big. I look like one of those guys who never trains legs, untill you see my on the squat rack.Jebus wrote:

Yeah, calves is pretty much all genetics innit? I have quite big calves, compared to my quads. Could be from playing handball for a few years, I don't know, but I'm glad those aren't lagging behind.
Had an absolute shit day today. Lost my bike keys so had to walk all the way to the gym/home. Could've grabbed the bus home but didn't want to miss my workout. Did chest/biceps today. Didn't do a complete workout, but a more intense one. Shorter rests and a drop/neg set at the end of every muscle. Was a great way to get some anger outta my system.
