im a little guy

willsonmarine Posts: 2 Joined: 2006/06/28	2006/06/28, 01:15 PM im 6 foot tall, about 150 lbs, and i have less than 9% body fat. im not looking to get huge or anything like that, but i would like to have a little muscle and some definition on me. i also work 14 hours a day, so spending alot fo time in the gym aint really an option. i can spend an hour, maybe and hour and a half in the gym 4 days a week. im already taking %100 whey protien and some gnc weight gainer, what else should i be doing? any suggestions from anybody? thanks.

Go here and you can read about weight lifting and choose exercises to build a routine: http://www.freetrainers.com/FT/jsp/ExerciseResources.jsp Also, use the search function at the bottom of the page and search on either routine or workout. Read as many of the pertinent threads as you can to help you from making the same mistakes others have. Also, you have to eat alot of quality food.

It's not too much time, and tbt won't interfer with your work the way DOMS does on a split. At 6', it'll be easiest to get you looking good by putting a little more muscle on your frame. In the long run, it will help you get more defined. -------------- Iron and chalk. ============ Quoting from bisleri: I have heard that working chest and tricep on the same day leads to size reduction of the arms. Is it true. =============
