who works out?
 

anyone here work out? what do you guys do to work out your pecs?

bench, incline, pushups, and my fav.. butterflies

Just started pilates...

but I don't workout my "pecs" seeing I have tits :glugglug

I take it you're female? :)

Last time I checked!

But I guess we do have pecs and there are exercises...
I can't remember what they are though.

I did pilates for about 9 months. Was in best shape of my life then . Was doing it 3 days a week and running other 3. I need to start it again. It is amazing workout. At first I thought it was silly....but after doing it you realize how great it is. Doesn't build big muscles, more long lean muscles.

how do you like pilates? What is it like? I was thinking of taking a class tomorrow!

As far as working out your chest or any other part of your body; my favorite way to have a more intense workout is to do negative sets ..
For example when you push up on say a bar, another person pushes down on the weight stack or the bar and you try to resist against them ...just hard enough so you go through the rep slow. but ya can't do it everyday..

What's the deal w/ Pilates? I never really looked into that. I just run 4-6 miles a day. Just started doing the whole weights thing. Starting pushups and situps again.

I find it really hard to target my pecs. I have an appointment with my trainer tomorrow to see what im doing wrong as my arms and sholders are coming along well, but not my back or pecs.

Check out www.bodybuilding.com. They have an awesome section on all the different lifts you can do, the correct technique for that lift and which areas it targets.

Im on my second week of creatine also. I dont know how I lifted without this shit. Its ace :)

Does creatine really help build muscle? I heard it sort of fills them with liquids and if you stop working out, they get all flabby.. that's why i've been scared to touch creatine... but if it doesnt do that, im all for it.

Pilates are pretty awesome...nice lean muscle, hehe not on me yet though...still working on that.

But its a pretty nice workout, focuses on the powerhouse...I think thats back, abs and butt area...

And I was pretty outta shape so it hurt like hell the day after...

the lil meat on my ribs even hurt! Still working at it!

Me meeting Labret at the last convention in Montreal, Natural Muscle mag was there and snapped a pic.

Creatine helps your mucsle retain water and allows you to lift more / do a few more reps per set. I've also read that about 6% of it is taken up by the heart and 3% buy the brain (i thought that was odd) which helps them funtion better too.

The best article I've seen is http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/creatine.html

Protein and creatine DO work but you gotta take a lot.

sex is my workout :Graucho

Those guys are supposed to be natural? Define "natural".

I go to the gym for lifting 2 or 3 times a week and do bikini clad DDR (dance dance revolution) on cam a few times a week for cardio
:)

Women should not be afraid to do chest exercises. Most women think they will lose their tits. That's true if you over diet but it normally doesn't unless you get crazy with it. You will see all 8 ab muscles clearly before you have to worry about losing titty. Pec excercises make women's chests bigger thanks to the lift. Imagine instead of silicone you have soft, natural muscle tissue in there. It looks the same.

BIKINI CLAD DDR! I DEMAND PICS!!!

DDR is so much fun and it an awesome cario workout. I dont know why gyms dont have a bunch of them. Much more interesting than treadmills or steppers.

They don't have them because guys like me who weigh over 300lbs would come in and stomp them to smithereens.

been working out for 12 years.

Just on DDR for a second...

You can get a really good DDR clone for the PC.
