Hey Phantom. I know you're a guy who likes to work out cuz you're super strong and could give strongmen like Mitchel Hooper a run for his money with how easily you tossed that bus the other day, so I wanted to run my gym program by you. Obviously, I'm going for max hypertrophy on all my sets. I do full ROM on all reps except the last few which I do lengthened partials.

Here's my push day where I train chest, shoulders, and triceps. Chest is my favorite day. Sometimes I skip my monthly leg day to do chest day instead. I'm so buff though I don't think anyone can notice that I skip leg day.

I'm totally natty, btw. I don't do any gear. Just cuz I know you were probably thinking I do because of how jacked I am. You should see me with an arm pump.

The first thing I do is I start my morning with two creatine pills and a full glass of water. Then after school, it's time for the workout. I take a shot of preworkout. I'm not a pussy so I just take the powder straight from the scoop. (Okay, I lied, I actually do mix it in my shaker, but I like to say that I take the preworkout dry because it makes me sound cooler. Do I sound cool?)

Then I warm up with 10 minutes of stairs to get the blood pumping, and I do my dynamic warm up. I do dynamic stretches with a broom handle mostly. But I also do pushups and dips stuff too.

My push day is:

Chest press: dropped weight warm up

Chest press: (godda get that chest pump at the start you know what I mean?)

Arnold press

Chest press incline

Lat raise / weighted dips: supersetted

Chest flys

Triceps overhead extension

After my workout, I go home and make sure to drink a protein shake within that hour window for max hypertrophy. I also take another two creatine pills with that protein shake.

So what do you think? Pretty sweet, right? My chest and shoulder pump from this is huge. I do an RPE of like 8-10 on pretty much everything.

In total I probably am hitting about 150g of protein per day. I'm in a bulk phase currently. Probably will continue it for another 8 or so weeks before I start cutting. My gains are insane right now though. Again, I don't have any juice flowing in me. Not enhanced at all. Just because I know you were thinking that maybe I was on a little bit of gear, but I'm natty. I'll take any test you want and I'll come up clean.

I love you, Phantom.

—Dash

P.S. Call me 💚

I, uh, I don’t really know what any of that means really. Gym is, was my least favorite class in high school. I don’t really think I need to get any gains or anything. Like, I already have my powers and all that.

But, it totally works for you, man. Like, that workout sounds great. And yeah, you have been getting really buff and stuff. Awesome that you’re having fun and all that.

And I totally believe you about being, uh, natty? Yeah. You don’t have to take any tests or anything, it’s all good. Very cool. Yeah

work was good. worked most of the time with my favorite coworker. we set up for water yoga outside in one of the water park pools but the class didn't happen so we brought the mats back inside. we had several families of swimmers shortly after noon. one of the ladies had a swimsuit that was cheeky. i talked it over with my coworker and we decided to not say anything. coworker told me she had seen much more revealing swimsuits, especially in the water park. the facility wants swimsuits to be fairly modest and i could care less as long as children aren't being flashed

Muscles Worked: Triceps, chest, shoulders.

How-To: Lie on a bench and grip the barbell with hands shoulder-width apart. Lower the bar to your chest and press it back up.

Pro Tip: Keep your elbows close to your body for maximum tricep engagement.

2. Tricep Dips

Muscles Worked: Triceps, chest, shoulders.

How-To: Use parallel bars or a sturdy bench. Lower your body by bending your elbows until your arms form a 90-degree angle, then push yourself back up.

3. Overhead Tricep Extension

Muscles Worked: Triceps.

How-To: Hold a dumbbell or kettlebell overhead with both hands. Lower the weight behind your head, then extend your arms back to the starting position.

Pro Tip: Keep your elbows stationary and close to your ears to isolate the triceps.

4. Tricep Pushdowns (Cable Machine)

Muscles Worked: Triceps.

How-To: Attach a rope or straight bar to a cable machine. Push the bar or rope downward until your arms are fully extended, then slowly return to the starting position.

5. Diamond Push-Ups

Muscles Worked: Triceps, chest, core.

How-To: Position your hands in a diamond shape beneath your chest. Lower your body until your chest almost touches the ground, then push back up.

Say Goodbye to Flabby Arms with These Simple Exercises

Flabby arms can be frustrating, but the good news is that you can tone and strengthen them with simple, effective Flabby arm exercises. Whether you’re dealing with loose skin or just want more definition, incorporating arm-focused moves into your routine can make a big difference.

Best Exercises for Toned Arms

1. Arm Circles

A great warm-up move! Extend your arms to the sides and make small circles forward and backward. This strengthens your shoulders and upper arms.

2. Triceps Dips

Using a sturdy chair, lower yourself up and down to target the back of your arms. This move helps tighten and tone triceps.

3. Bicep Curls

Hold light weights (or water bottles) and curl them towards your shoulders. This classic move builds arm strength and definition.

4. Wall Push-Ups

Stand an arm’s length from a wall, place your hands shoulder-width apart, and push your body towards the wall. This is great for beginners to build arm and chest strength.

5. Overhead Triceps Extensions

Hold a weight with both hands, extend it overhead, and lower it behind your head before raising it back up. This focuses on the back of your arms.

Keep It Consistent!

Doing these exercises regularly — at least 3–4 times a week — can help you see noticeable results over time. Pair them with a balanced diet and overall fitness routine for the best results.

How do you get better at push-ups? I need to build upper body and bicep strength, because I'm practicing martial arts, specifically taekwondo and boxing.

To do better push-ups, it's important you strive to improve your triceps and pectoral muscles since that's exactly what they train. I would recommend exercises such as bench-press, dumbell press, dips, pull-downs and overhead extensions. If you wish to focus solely on push-ups, then I'd recommend starting off with push-ups, but with knees on the ground. Variety is far more effective in increasing strength and hypertrophy, so I'd recommend the list of exercises I provided.

[ask-good-cop-bad-cop]

what's your workout routine? Got a fav exercise?

▪️ It's pretty simple honestly. I do the majority of my working out at home. Always do warm-ups and stretches first to prevent injury, and then I'll pick one exercise from each category for the day:

Quads – squats, lunges, one-legged squats, box jumps Butt and Hamstrings – deadlifts, hip raises, straight leg deadlifts, good mornings, step-ups Push (chest, shoulders, and triceps) – overhead press, bench press, incline dumbbell press, push-ups, dips Pull (back, biceps, and forearms) – chin-ups, pull-ups, bodyweight rows, bent-over rows

I switch up which ones I do from day to day just to keep it from getting too repetitive, and I have some weights I use for a few of these since I've been doing this long enough our own body weight is no longer sufficient. I do these 3 days a week. My favorite though is jogging. I get up early in the morning to go run in the park while it's still empty. It's a nice way to wake up, hearing the birds sing and watching the sun rise over the city.

Asta (Black Clover)

Asta is the kind of character everyone would love to be friends with, even if he is loud and a little much at times his heart shines through. He works hard with what little he has and makes the best of it. He is super ripped before the time skip, he mainly does high rep calisthenics (these build muscle, trust me I know a guy) and hard labor around the church (hence why even Yuno is considered physically strong). I don’t have much to say on Asta as he is a simpler character that manages to be engaging. He does get bigger after the time skip as a result of better nutrition swinging around a heavy sword and being really short. Although we don’t see him train I feel kind of bad about how short this is so I’m making 2 workouts: 

Calisthenics classic workouts

The hidden time skip mass builder (with swordwork considerations) 

I’ll try to stick to some bronze age bodybuilding, labor simulating, and minimal equipment techniques. Asta is a character whose training grows with him and evolves,based on his needs. 

Diet: POTATOES. The ones that grow in Hage village resemble red skinned sweet potatoes, or simply red potatoes. They might even have varieties! Potatoes are actually very good for you! However, potatoes are short on protein, and other vitamins and minerals. So please eat a balanced diet of which potatoes are a part of. 

Recovery/Programming: Asta works out until he literally can’t anymore. A lot of this stuff will be to failure especially the calisthenics and he works out MULTIPLE times a day. Since he lives in a church, we’ll call Sunday his day of rest. Knowing him, he’s not resting. I’ll be doing a 3 day cycle repeated 2x a week kind of thing, you could do only 1 cycle and be just fine. Measuring up to the character he’d do labor, his workout, cardio, and abs all in one day everyday, but we ain’t trying to die here so I figured something out. We don’t have access to recovery magic or potions or whatever he probably uses. So stretch up, eat well and rest plenty. 

Part 1 Calisthenics and Labor: When bodyweight becomes boring/easy add weight to simulate Asta getting his sword. 

Day 1: Legs  + Labor

TAKE A BREAK HERE IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY 

THE ABOVE CAN BE WEEK A, THE BELOW CAN BE WEEK B

Day 7: REST/ Cardio

-------------------------------TIME SKIP----------------------------------

So here we start his weighted training to get him big and beefy in the Heart Kingdom.

1. Asta will be eating more and have access to more state of the art equipment. To get bigger is to eat in a surplus mainly of protein.

2. He will still train 6 days a week, 4 with weights, 2 for his swordwork/fighting/anti-magic, 1 day off for Sister Lily. We'll do an Upper/Lower split as this is common with some of the strongest biggest folk I've seen.

3. He finally learned to prioritize efficiency and recovery over sheer volume. Burnouts are there for that 'going to failure feel'. Be warned that the form on these exercises might be a little 'advanced' for someone just stepping foot in the gym for the first time.

Upper 1

Warmup + (Program = 95% 1rm 5 x 2 -> 80% 1 x AMRAP -> 65% 1 x AMRAP) Bench

Calisthenics and Fight Training 1

Mace workout (for obvious reasons!) As a real person, I would suggest not doing this in public... it's a little awkward, maybe go to a class or hit a tire with a hammer... Where would you even get a mace anyway?

Here's one you can try to base yours off of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdatDbqb8TY

-----

Calisthenics Portion Upper:

3 x Pushups to failure

3 x Inverted rows to failure

Train Pull-Ups AND Chin Ups, train to pull more weight or just rep out till you can't feel your lats with a band.

2 x to NEAR failure Dips, keep 1-2 reps in the tank

Short Abs workout: ab wheels, captain chair, crunches, planks are all great

Calisthenics and Fight Training 2

Mace workout/ Some kind of combat class

Calisthenics Portion Lower:

3 x 30 Jumping Squat

3 x 30 Jumping Lunges

3 x 10 Sissy Squats (assisted usually, these are hard)

Train shrimp/pistol squat to your skill level

Short Abs workout: ab wheels, captain chair, crunches, planks are all great

Squat Programming: I made this up myself and went from nearly dying under 135lb to repping 185lb. Be safe out there y'all!

Step 1: Pick a working weight, it should be REALLY HARD, but not your 1rm, it can look messy! but you will build strength and eventually the perfect form will follow.

It goes like this: the only thing that is included is the TOPSET with the working weight you picked, you must warm up and do back off sets too!

Week X: Session 1/ Session 2

2x2 / 3x2

4x2/ 3x3

1x4/ 2x4

1x6/ 1x8 (at this point pick a new weight and repeat the program with it. If you fail or feel like one of the sessions is too hard, repeat it until comfortable and then move onto the next rep/set scheme)

Deadlift Programming: This works! It got me from 225lb - 265lb on DL, thats 40lb! I do want to hit 315lb this year so I'm running the program again:

https://t-nation.com/t/the-simple-deadlift-program/284445

Oh my... how the hell did I used to spit these post out so often. This is my first post back, and it's SOOO LONG ... Anyway here it is. Enjoy!

[andromedasummer]

hey hey sorry to bother but you mentioned having an upper body/arm workout you enjoy and if you’re alright with sharing it can i ask what you do? i’ve tried so many and still haven’t found one i enjoy (i blame using my experienced rock climbing friends as a baseline for what i should be able to do lol) so would love to try smth else out !

oh i dont have specific routines, mostly i use an app called fiton (for most my exercise actually) but for arms i do like these specific exercises:

- Tricep dips (a set of 10 twice, using a chair or bed)

- isometic holds of all kinds (usually 30 seconds at a time one arm at a time)

- hammer curls (i like all curls tbh theyre simple. 2-3 sets of 30)

- overhead tricep extension (holding one for dumbell) (2 sets of these about 15 times. i find tricep exercises very satisfying and my favorite to do)

- any lying down exercises for when my body really isnt happy today. tricep extensions, skull crushers, anything really.

- kickbacks!!!! love kickbacks theyre good for your bicep and tricep. again i really like tricep exercises.

id say a good idea would be looking up the specific parts of muscles in your arms (like specific areas in the biceps, triceps etc, theres 3/4 for each i think?), finding exercises that work on those specific areas, trying them out to find the most enjoyable ones and then doing a set of each the way through two-three times. also giving your arms a day or two to recover because your arm and shoulder etc muscles are small as hell and tire QUICK and they will hurt like hell the next day

take ur time and build up to it and remember that every single exercise has alterations. googling their name and alterations and youll find plenty of different ways to do it and complete and target these areas without pushing yourself too hard and hurting yourself.

its better to take baby steps into this and start only doing one set then two then three than trying to throw yourself in there. more likely than not you wont be able to do it or do it completely and that will kill your enthusiasm. do fun stuff or stuff you feel has an effect and your bodys own pace and stop when things hurt. a sore body after a workout is normal and your body is making sure it can do better next time you do. a broken body spending its time on healing will not get stronger or raise your endurance. exercise should be a fun celebration of your body and not a painful chore.
