If U Could Do It Over Again?

[Backlash]

Ha ha, you're only 17 RedDragon right? I don't think not lifting in grade school counts as neglecting your body

 

[Becoming]

Red Dragon reminded me of a good one- I would have not done so many years of bench with my elbows out at 90 degrees and would have done push press/military instead of behind the necks....

I went through a couple good shoulder tears myself and they will never be the same....

 

[Tiervexx]

I would have started reading these boards right away

This and ignored what my dad and coaches told me.

 

[SofaGeorge]

I would have never read "muscle and fiction" of "flex"

I would have eaten like a horse all through my teens instead of spending my greatest growth years 17,18,19 at 6-8 percent bf

I would have never had a six pack

I would have never done cardio

I would not have spent the countless hours on the eliptical and the track jogging

I would have spent above mentioned time sprinting and working on agilities

I would have never bought a supplement besides protein and water

I would have started reading these boards right away

I would have never listened to old out of shape gym rats who all seem to know how to get huge but none are.....

cool... now i don't have to answer.

What he said.

 

[DrBones]

I would have focussed on things other than chest/shoulders/bis..
Like my back!

Would have prevented a lot of muscular imbalances

 

[makedah]

I would have not been scared to go into the free weight room with the boys.

 

[Lee]

i woulda done PL style for my first 6 months of lifting.

 

[Zander1983]

Add "I wouldn't have bench pressed four times a week" to IL's list, and I'm done

I'm happy with where I am, so I figure I must be happy with how I got here.
