I have always wished to have a lean muscled body all my life but that is what it has stayed so far a dream. Since I was 15 I have lifted weights on/off and was never able to to take my shirt of and feel proud..! I am 33 now I want to change all that so I joined this site.. I hope to god it helps !!! I am not fat but I want definition on my body ... I am moderately built with difficulty getting my muscles to develop... I once exercised to four months with minimal results...it is really hopeless sometimes! So all those with those defined bodies please send me your charts/tips/ and anything to help me out with..I promise I will post my picture the day I feel confident enough..so HELP..I have decided it is now or never...!
cheers..!
ps: my points of interest!
- Shoulders***

Welcome to ft egale, you'll reach your goals here!
First of all, fill in your profile. We need to know what your body type is now and what your current practices and eating habits are.
A great start is the freetrainers exercise programs. You filled one out as you signed up for a membership. Follow that plan and you will have results.
Ask any questions (specific please) that you may have

Hey man thanks for the encouragement! My first concern is to build my shoulders because they are somewhat not wide enough ..! and my forearms that seem like tooth picks :) and my chest.....and I could go on so let me stop there..!

What sort of workouts do you do now? Sets, reps and intensity? The main difference that I have found between gaining and not gaining is whether or not you are willing to go PSYCHO in your workouts.
-------------- . . . to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women . . .
Intensity is all.

I do 3 times a week (dunno if that is enough).
I work 1 day:
Shoulders (Standing Lateral Raises,Dumbell Presses) 4 sets - 20,15,12,10 each
Back (Close Grip Machine Pulldowns,One Arm Dumbell Rows) same again!
Biceps (Two Hand Cable Curls) same again!
Then work 2 day:
chest - triceps - forearms (with almost same intensity)
Then Work 3 day:
legs - calves (same intensity)
----------------------------------------------
You see I have started again this week and I want to see results hopefully in two months...! Do you think I am on the right track...!
Thanks stormcrow! Any help is welcome!!!!
cheers!

If you work out at a gym add deadlifts, for back, shoulder presses and shrugs on shoulder day, and squats for legs. Hope this helps
-------------- deadlifts rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!
