I might be a little critical. After all, there’s a ton of people online claiming that they build muscle naturally. Most of them are liar. Tim Martin on the other hand is the truth!

I was resting in between a set of deadlifts the other day in the gym and started observing people. I like doing that. On tv and in the magazines, gyms are fantasy places. Everyone looks good and the women that train there are amazing. In the real world, not so.

The Expendables has an all-star muscle cast of who’s who in action films. As a matter of fact, it may have more muscle then the cast in Arnold’s Predator.

Everyone that has it knows the feeling. You throw on a t-shirt and it gets “stuck” on your upper back. You have to adjust it a little bit to make it fit properly and you’re good. Ahh the joys of having a big upper back. Let’s face it, when people write “how to build a big back” articles, they usually encompass the entire back as opposed to the powerful upper back.

What can I do for my biceps?
I want bigger arms, how do I get them?
My arms are too small, I need new exercises, what do you have?
I’m sure you’ve seen this on internet message boards and I’m sure you’ve heard it when you were in the gym. Everyone wants bigger and thicker arms but almost every is completely ignoring their forearms.

It’s such a shame that more people don’t directly train their hamstrings. I mean not only are they a big muscle that will help to add more overall lean muscle to your body but they also look pretty darn cool if they are defined. Personally, I love training them over quads. Not sure why, maybe it’s because I hate squatting but I love to train my hamstrings. So I was on a internet message board the other day and I saw a discussion about which is better for hamstring improvement.

Anyone that reads this site daily should know about weak glutes and how they relate to low back pain. Well I got a email from a reader telling me about his back pain and how deadlifts are awful and how they wrecked his back. Listen, while I understand that the deadlift is a tricky move and that it may cause back pain, when done wrong it will cause just as much back pain as doing a barbell curl wrong.
