cross train, cardio and wieghts.

everyone has different goals as far as what part of their body they want to work out, but as far as strength and building muslce mass id have to say pryamid training inconjunction with cardio is the best.

also eat right but try and go on a low calorie diet, instead of drinking juice, drink water, and avoid alchohol at all costs.

Harsh long term shit though. most of my boys have been working out since they were 16 and are huge but I know if I wanna get that big its going to be a while. Protein is key though! You can get a big jug from costco for 40 bucks and thats a steal!

oh yeah and do you dont lunges? great leg work out! my fav way of doing weights is two muscle groups a day, 3 exercises each muscle group, and 3 sets of 15 reps, increasing my weight with each set.

i go two sets of ten at a light wieght, one set of a medium wieght at eight, and then my max i rep 6 but i do two sets. or i do a reverse pryamid and start repping my max at 10 and down until i cant do anymore and then move onto the next group.

ive also seperated the muslce i work out, mwf i work all my abs, back, traps, pects. and tues/thursday work biceps, tricepts, deltoids and i always start every session with 20 minutes of cardio on the bike.

its tite dude, i think i acutlaly like wokring out more then i used to like raving...one day im gonna be as big as barstar and bench 300...hahha

p.s hardstylin is right, you will never gain that much wieght unless you juice or stick with it hardcore. sticking wiht it hardcore is the way to go...its alot of fun.

p.p.s fuck supplements, i might try some ina few months but i wouldnt recommend fuckin aorund with any of that shit unless you really are hardocre, its a good way to make yourself a fat ass

u have to identify how you respond to weight training. do you grow muscle faster by switching up routines, or keeping it the same, or in the middle?
definitely taking protein shakes is a must. 5 meals a day ...1-2 of them shakes is fine.

definitely want to stick to freeweights with a little bit of machine here and there. make sure you include lots of bench presses, squats and bent over rows (the 3 best exercises for gaining mass.)
u said you work out everyday? not good. the only way you'll build mass is to let your body recover. 5 days a week tops.
also, the longer you work out, the better ajusted your body will become to weight training. this means you need to work it harder, and try different exercises to shock your body into growth. your muscles should be sore after almost every workout.

intensity is another key. i hate those posers that sit on there cell phone for 10 minutes in between sets and thinking they're getting somewhere. 1 minutes breaks max. so crucial. you've gotta be intense. always push yourself to do more then you expect yourself to do.

GET ARNIES ENCYLOPEDIA OF WEIGHT TRAINING. written in the 70's and still full of great advice. you'll never run out of exercises after you get this book.

also to whoever said that its impossible to gain 20 pounds of muscle quickly....i gained 20 pounds of muscle in the first month of working out so its totally possible.

ps creatine in my experience is baaad. sure it increases your stamina and whatnot, but as soon as you get off of it, you go back to where you were before (or close to it.) stay away from that shit.

If you adopt a work out routine with a good mix of cardio inconjunction with alot of weightlifthing you will see nice results, especially if you cut booze and extra calories out of your diet while increasing your protein intake.

i figure working out 3-5 times a week 20 minutes of hardcore cardio fallowed by an hour of wieghts will do you really well but the results wont come right away.

also do HIGH rep sets. 20 or so to a set.
low rep high weight sets are for building muscle. high rep light weight sets tone.

there are hundreds of different types of juice that all have different side effects and benifits, ir your worried about ur nuts shrinking just take roids that dont shut down ur bodies natural test production (theres lots of them out there) that side effect is not even a problem anyways you NEVER EVER take juice with out proper post cycle therapy, like clomid and nolvadex/armidex.
