  Last time i used to drink weight gainer 1850. If realli follow instructions hor i tink one bottle (ard 44 bucks) will finished in less than 2 weeks. So due to lack of money i always limit to 1 serving per day instead of 3 servings recommend.
  
  Aniway if i drink too much of that, my kidney will hurts, then i get paronoid. But then again, so far i still look thin without weight gain. Sianz
  
  Aniway for the past one mth, i have been going to gym twice a week to work on arms. here is wad i always do
  
  1) Lat Pull Down / Cable Front Pulldown (forehand-wide grip) (70Kg)
  http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/LatissimusDorsi/CBFrontPulldown.html
  4 sets of 15 reps
  
  2) Assisted Pull Up Machine/Assisted Close Grip Chin-up (forehand - close grip) (60 KG)
  http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/LatissimusDorsi/AsCloseGripChinup.html
  4 sets of 12 reps
  
  3) Overhead tripceps extention http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/Triceps/LVTricepsExtensionOH.html
  6 sets of 12 reps (40Kg weight)
  
  4) Incline Chest Press /Or shoulder press(50Kg) <-- i dunno e diff, they look e same to me.
  4 Sets of 12 reps
  
  if i manage to finished all this, by then i will be too exhausted to cont ani further.
  
  today i jus bought protein (whey) from GNC. One freaking bottle cost me 75 dollars (Faintz) but at least the scoop they use is smaller haha
  
  Wonder the experts out there can advice me my these training scheme gd anot, i jus wan to have bigger arms. or they look like sticks.
  
  Be e way sometimes i also work with free weights on my non-training days. for twice a week
  
  1) Biceps Curl (10KG)
  http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/Biceps/DBCurl.html
  4 Sets 15 reps
  
  2) Pushup (shoulder length)
  4 sets of 15 reps
  
  I oni have one dumbell.
  
  and lastly, should i drink protein power everyday or oni on gym training days, then in non-gym training days i will drink e weight gainer? And do u guys follow the recommend portion as in 3 servings a day ar?
  
  My BMI is oni 18.7 so i m currently underweight.

  IF U WANNA GROW BIG, U SHLD NOT SAVE ON THESE SUPPLEMENTS
  
  ALL THE PEOPLE I KNOW WHO HAVE DRANK THE WEIGHT GAINER ALL GROWN ALOT AND THEY DEFINETLY DO NOT SAVE ON THESE SUPPLEMENTS. WITHIN 2-3 WKS, THEY WOULD HAVE FINISH A TUB
  
  WHEN THEY R BULKING UP, THEY DRANK WEIGHT GAINER TOGETHER WITH PROTEIN GAINER AND OSO STUFF IN LOTS OF FOODS, MAYBE HAVING 6 MEALS/DAY
  
  PREVIOSULY I OSO BROUGHT WEIGHT GAINER AND I OSO IN SAME SITUATION AS U, KEEP SAVING ON THE GAINER AS I RARELY GO TO GYM DUE TO WORK SO I RARELY DRINK OSO. NO CHANGE IN WEIGHT, WASTE MY MONEY ONLY

  if you dont train legs you are not training at all.Therefore your program is unacceptable to grow.
  
  Incline press =/= shoulder press.It is like saying pullups =dips.
  
  I will sketch a basic program for you.
  
  Workout 1
  
  Lat pulldowns or pullups x3 sets
  Squats x4 sets
  Bent over rows or Dumbbell rows x 3 sets
  Bicep curls x 2 sets
  
  Workout 2
  
  Flat Benchpress x 3 sets
  Dips x 3 sets to failure
  Skullcrushers x 3 sets
  Squats x 3 sets
  
  Anyway why so many reps, more doesnt mean better.
  
  I suggest 2 sets of 8-10 reps and maybe 1 set of 5-6 reps.
  
  You can always do assited pullups or dips on non gym training days.
  
  and please read the stickies, they are not there for aesthetics purposes.
  
  Thanks
