Normally the main reasone a body part dose not respond ....Is over training................GIVE IT A REST................and it will grow

That's a great list, especially for those who have difficulty identifying what muscles an exercise hits!

I agree with Bexsome (Ronnie looks absolutely f'in incredible in your avatar BTW - Jaysus!!!)... a mate of mine has recently demonstrated this to me very clearly:

He used to train with me 3 - 4 times a week and as he's half asian and natural he was finding it difficult to grow. But now he's only training once or twice a week from work commitments he's actually growing. It's unbelievable but he's getting stronger every workout, even though he's not eating as well as before! Mental!
