Im in good shape but with little extra fat and weigh 180 lbs and I want to gain 200 lbs without gaining fat. How can I achieve this?

Thanks.

I also have a question on supersets..I make progress every week on the 1st exercise in the superset, but I get weaker every week on the second exercise. Should I take it easy on the 1st portion and let the second exercise improve, or keep pushing hard on the first exercise and let second part lack in improvement? I go to “gun-to-the-head” failure every set right now so I’d have to take it easy on 1st set to let second part progress

They are generating a lot of force, not necessarily strength, but strength obviously plays a role. This is from an earlier comment…
“Think of strength as your weights increasing over time, or your 1 rep max increasing over time. Think of power as the ability to generate force quickly. So it’s force x speed = power. Think of the type of movements power lifters perform. However, those type of movements don’t play any part in a good growth-orientated program.”
@Pesseh. True. Good point.

The simple things that don’t interfere with progressive weight overload seem to work very well. Btw, you could do the calculation easier by just multiplying the weight by 1.1.

just a quick question, with the different rep ranges for strength gain or muscle (size)
gain it looks like a very fine line.. i remember the saying that size will follow strength so the stronger you get the bigger you get. does that maybe depend on your diet.?
cause ive noticed with the olympic weight lifters that they are lifting huge weights but some of them aren’t really that big.

thanks

I would like to make an inquiry as to what supplements you would reccomend? I dont currently use any but i am wanting maximum growth of healthy muscle to complement my workouts.

Cheers Mate
