I do a 4 day split, and so far its been going pretty well for me. A 5x5 program is a strength program, and especially if you are starting out, its not gonna give you the hypertrophy that you're gonna want.

My 4-day split:

Monday: Quads, Hamstrings and Calves
Tuesday: Chest and Biceps
Wednesday: Shoulders and Triceps
Thursday: Back and Abs

Everything at 75% of 1 RM 10 reps, 4 sets for each exercise

what's another good split(?) program that i can start on??

I had no real bicep progress either. Probably gonna check out the layne norton program, like xplicit mentioned

What specific excercises do you do? JW

[BrRsn]

my arms have been lacking bad besides whatever gains I made with 5x5. Added in an arms day and they're starting to get better.

Dips, close grip bench, close grip pullups, reverse curls, 21's, 2-3 exercises on cables, skullcrushers and OH tricep extension is usually more or less the meat of my arms day

That's funny because I'm the exact same height and weight as you..except you're like 2x bigger LOL

Are you taking their Anaconda Protocol as well? I'm seriously considering I, Bodybuilder...although I don't want to spend money on their supplements.

Also, how do you know how much weight you should use for each exercise?

[JSilver]

Yeap, I bought a 5 months supply until before they discontinued their product. Stuff works like a charm.

Not my max, but just recently learned how to properly do DL, so I kept the weight low. Going for 225 today.

There's nothing special about my diet. What I think helped is my consistent time routine of eating because of work mon-fri. Cut out thick creamy sauces, white rice, potatoes. Havent had pasta in a while..no chips. For about a month or so now, I've been craving sweets. Probably from all the sugar I've lost.. :S

615am - Cereal or oatmeal or toasted sandwich
In between - lots of water and munched on almonds in case my stomach starts to growl
1015am - Fruits (apples oranges grapes bananas strawberries)
1230pm - Leftover dinner (brown rice, meat dish, veggies)
5pm - Bowl of cereal or small portion of leftovers (3-5 spoons worth of rice) or some fruit
8-10pm - workout (pre/post protein shake)
1015pm - Whatever dish my mother makes (small portion again)

Weekends I probably only eat 3-4 times. Not much snacking in between. When I eat out I sub my fries/potatoes for salad with vinaigrette or steamed veggies. Asian restaurants, there isn't much choice of there. I just give in to the white rice and saucy and deep fried stuff.

When I first started, I wrote down a bunch of workouts from menshealth & mensfitness into a notebook and just alternated in between them. I never really checked bb.com Probably cause I like reading all the articles menshealth/fitness has to offer.

Jan&Feb - Full body workouts.
Mar&Apr - I did the Spartacus workout from menshealth v1.0 + 2.0.
May - Full Body
June - 5x5

Also after each weight lifting session, I'd spend about 20-30 min skipping rope or hitting up the punching bags.
