    please rank these

    Sleep
    Gear
    Nutrition
    Workout
    please rank these in order of importance

    thanks, this will help me get a feel for how important each is
    please dont write all the same
    percentages out of 100 would be the best

Maybe cut, but not big. Gear is the least important, but also doesn't work very well if the other 3 aren't in place. Gear doesn't build muscle either; it places your body in the optimum environment for muscular growth and development.

    You want percentages? How about:

    Workout: 20%
    Diet: 35%
    Sleep: 35%
    Gear: 10%
    right on bro..i might change it up:
    workout 20
    diet 20
    sleep 10
    gear 10
    genetics 40

    1 Nutrition
    2 Sleep
    3 Workout
    4 Gear

    I have to agree...but I also think that nutrition is over 50% of it...you might get big on gear but w/o proper nutrition, you'll probably lose it, get hurt, or mess up your body in some other way...

    I agree that nutrition is definately over 50% and not equal to training. Like it was said before.

    1. Nutrition
    2. Sleep
    3. Training
    4. Gear

    The sleep #2, cause lets face it if you take 2 guys who are pretty similar, if they train with same styles or even diff styles the guy getting the loads of sleep will most likely progress faster assuming # 1 nutrition is in check. Some argue this but without a doubt 110% nothing comes close to nutrition ive seen guys with poor "genetics" with perfect nutrition who look amazing.

    Peace

    4. Gear

    Have to eat to grow. Have to train to use the food for muscle not belly. Have to sleep to repair fuller from training. Dont need gear ever, but its great to help out.
