do you guys work your abs heavily during your cycles? or do you mostly focus on other muscle groups like chest, legs, arms...... :yellowcon

I train the same way I do while off..... well, maybe with heavier weights when on :dg:
Just like every other muscle they need to be trained.....
While on....... because of recovery improvment.. i do anything that is lagging....
but with heavier weights......... :)
good advice all....i will train them harder while on...i usually dont use much weight at all...i usually rep out...i will increase weights and see how it feels...
I do abs ED, as part of my routine.
To be big ............. you have to lift big........ more weight.. less reps..:lift:

Personally, i like to stay around 10-12 with heavy weight.
Meh, screw abs! I'll worry about those more when I cut

I'm having too much fun growing like a weed than to worry about working sissy muscles like abs.
yeah true, but thing about how much you could get those abs to grow while your on.Quote:
