If Arnold Schwarzenegger was to compete in professional bodybuilding today…?

admin — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 17:23:46 +0000

but with the body he had in his peak period, would he still do well?

I’m just wondering because I noticed that the bodybuilders today are much bulkier and therefore, different-looking.

I believe Arnold would excel very much in the same manner he did back then. Technology and the advancements in supplements (Protein Shakes, electrolytes, and much more) would have just catapulted his status. Yes there would have been (maybe) more competition, but at his young age he really dedicated himself like no other.

Ultimately it takes great genes to compete on the professional level and he was blessed with that as well.

He is an icon in the bodybuilding world and can be credited with getting much of America wanting to be involved into the sport during the 1970′s. Go rent the film Pumping Iron and see how much he LOVES what he does/did at the time. He really became a great ambassador of the sport of Bodybuilding.

What is the best free weights workout for a bodybuilder?

It’s different for everyone. People’s bodies differ so what may work for me, may not work for you. Best thing for you to do is get with a personal trainer and have him/her set you up on workout regimen that best suits your needs

I want to take my husband to a show in texas in July, but I’ve searched online and don’t know where to find tickets. The Bodybuilding schedule sites don’t offer them.

Have you checked with Ticketmaster and Live Nation? They control ticket purchasing in almost every venue in the United States.

Can you lose muscle if you eat the amount of calories required for maintenance (bodybuilder)?

admin — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 17:20:47 +0000

I was just wondering if the body works in such a way for a bodybuilder that the following happens:
The bodybuilder doesn’t exercise for five days but eats the proper maintenance calories required for his body type without any exercise accounted for? Will that bodybuilder lose muscle?

If u were a body builder, i suggest that you remain consistent with the work you do. You won’t truly loose muscle but if u took a long break, ur body would not be used to the work that you would have used to have done. Its like your muscles simply get lazy, but five days isnt much. so i wouldnt worry about it

In bodybuilding, how much weight do you add a week for exercises?

admin — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 17:20:31 +0000

I notice that I can usually add about 2.5 pounds to the weight I can lift for most exercises a week. How much can you?

A good rule of thumb is do 3X10 and if you can complete the third set for the second time increase the weight.

Depending on your goals determines how you continue to add weight or change your routine.

You will reach a point where adding additional weight is dangerous.
It is easy to blow out a shoulder with too much weight.

Which is better for bodybuilding workouts? Resistance bands or Free weights?

admin — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 17:20:20 +0000

I want to build some muscle. I already have a planned exercise routine that some people have commented on but i just have one question. Would resistance bands work better than the dumbbells I already have?

your muscles don’t know the difference between the two. Its all about your form. So maybe they would be more convienent for certain lifts but I would stick to dumbells. You can do nearly any lift with them
