    I reckon a few people here will rip into me for saying this but I'll say it anyway:

    If I wasn't an ectomorph, my diet and training would have me huge by now. There's only so big I can get even when I eat properly and lift 4 days a week. I have a decent athletic frame now but I'm not 'big'.

    If I made the choice to blast and cruise for the rest of my life then I'd really be going places. I don't like the idea of needles for the rest of my life though. I know some diabetics inject insulin daily (or a few times daily) and so it's not the end of the world, but I bet those diabetics would quickly give up the needle if they could swallow a pill instead. (Also of course, going into muscle is a bigger job than tummy fat).
    I’m a believer that 4 times a week just isn’t enough. I religiously do 6 days a week 21 sets/day plus 3 sets abs daily with 30 mins cardio daily. I’m now around 270lbs @13% bf. It has been a long journey and yes the gear and hgh is part of it but cutting the excuses and moving everything out of the way of my goals changed everything. You have to want it as bad as you want to breathe. Dial up your intensity and work out like your life depended on it every time.

    It all depends, I've read plenty that for ectomorphs you'll see more gains on just 3 workouts a week doing total body workouts each time maybe with slight variations. But basically just focus on those big lifts M-W-F doing deadlifts, squat, bench, rows, presses. You're literally doing that 3 days a week because ectomorphs (especially if on cycle) can heal fast, so it's less recovery in between is needed.

    I've never done it that way, but I might give it a go, why not.
