    Thanks bro. Nah, I definitely had/have problems with loose skin. If you look closely at my avy (I don't even need to look closely, lol), you'll see my stomach looks all fvcked up with stretch marks and crap... i.e. it's not very smooth. Also, you clearly cannot see the bottom of my abs although my bodyfat is low enough to allow veins to show all over my upper body. I even have visible veins running down both obliques, yet cannot get the bottom of my abs to pop - some fat, some loose skin.

    Hopefully, over time, between cardio and building the muscle underneath, i'll be able to get everything there tightened up. It's one of the few things left on me that I truly HATE, and one of the reasons I still cringe when I post pics up here.

    Stem can elaborate on his comment, but bro, as for the bold - ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! Quality over quantity, ALWAYS.

    There are some guys who will do ONE SINGLE working set per muscle group. I would not recommend this to you (nor to 99% of the people on this board) as the only way that will work is when you train with EXTREME intensity.... intensity like most of us will never know. These guys also usually add in some advanced techniques - drop sets, forced reps, rest/pause, static holds, etc.

    IMO - pick your 'meat and potatoes' exercise per muscle group - i.e. bench press for chest for instance, squats for legs - and then add in a supplemental exercise or 2 at most IMO - and kill them all when you do them. Doing too much can lead to overtraining. If more was always better, why not do 200 reps per exercise? I'm sure you're picking up what i'm putting down...
