If it's lean muscle mass I would concentrate about a few good compound exercises and lift heavy. Why not follow the 12 week muscle mass routine in here? -------------- - Nina :o) Les Victoires éternelles sont celles du coeur.

Another question is, am i need to go for more reps less weight or High weight less reps? Currently, i am doing 10reps 4sets for all the actions (above)... Thanks very much for your advices...
