This is a before/after video of me trough my weight training journey. I made it naturally all the way and plot to keep it that way. The images and clips were realized with an ancient webcam so you won’t see much of the muscle details, but they are there… use your imagination to compensate.

Does doing weight training once a week make a difference when you usually train with bodyweight?

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

Say you do pushups, chinups, and other bodyweight workouts every day. My question is, would doing weight training say once a week make a difference in your strength? Is it worth your time?

Friday, February 12th, 2010

I’m 14 and I can’t do any push-ups because my arms are too weak, so I’ve chose to start weight training with dumbbells. I have 7 pound ones and I bought a light resistance band. Should I get heavier weights or can I just use the ones I have?
