i dunno about that. doing excessive cardio will do that, but i've never heard of it being a problem with lifting weights. |
For me, training for almost 3 hours sounds ridiculous.. if your workouts take that much time you are obviously not training very intensely. And if you are really busting your ass for that long every time you work out it won't take long before you're overtrained. And besides, what's the point in training for so long when you can get great results with much shorter work-outs?... |

i agree...i mean you'd run out of energy or something. i've just never heard of working out with weights destroying muscle that's all... |

| the problem is running out of glycogen and the fuel to rebuild the muscle. So instead of repairing it, the body eats up the torn fibers and uses it for energy and flushes out the unused stuff. Runnign out of glycogen is a bad bad thing. Thats why they want you to wait so long between workouts...the 100 hours to get back a totally wasted glycogen reserve is scary @@ |

and in relation to back, the back can account for a lot of the chest measurement, i'm really focussing on getting a more pronounced V-shape to it. the guy's back in this thread is huge but when looking at it from the front looks right size
