Christ! Some of you lads have arms the size of tree trunks.

How much do you gym to get arms like oak trees?

I jog every morning, the only thing i lift is my sun glasses and house keys.

I learnt most of this gym stuff at school last year...I had to do weights training for a term....of course i didn't really do anything...

I don't really know how people can run...one of my best friends is a serious runner and I don't know how she can do it-running long distances kills me

But back to the point of the gym thread-here's what I learnt in PE-
Bigger weight but less reps=bigger muscle
Lighter weights but more reps=mopre definintion
That's why I've started doing light weights, but at least 100 everyday, coz i already gots da muscles, but i wanna be able to have the definition to show them off without having to tense!
PS-it looks like you took that picture in the change room skua-lets hope you didn't take any other pics

I use some pretty generic branded stuff and I still get gains. IMO there's not a great deal more to gain by spending the extra dollars on top brand stuff. Also buy bulk, like 5kg tubs so 1, you save money 2, there's so much there don't want to waste it and keep training.

what gym do you belong to? im at fitness first.

Motivation. the most important part of working out. you cant go into the gym without it. if you dont have motivation, then what are you doing? for those who get bored at the gym, find something, a goal, or something you want to acheive, and keep trying untill you suceed . when i started at the gym i couldnt do 1 chinup. now i can. i find more things easier. i do heavier weights. i dont decrease weights.

Yep keep going forward with your training, even if you increase your weights by half a kilo that last time that's still good.

@Suka I go to a local gym called Green House Training Studio a smallish sized gym but has everything I need and the people there are great, no heroes.
