just done biceps, triceps and a load of front and side raises today and my triceps are fucking KILLING me, to the point i cant bend my arms all the way. is that bad? should i not be pushing myself that hard? or is it a case of the the more pain im in = more 'damage' done to muscle tissue, which with enough protein will result in bigger/better/more repaired tissue and bigger strength/size gain?

I love that feeling! Its cause your body isn't used to it at the moment as you've had some time off. Within a couple of weeks that same routine will not have anywhere near as much of an effect and you will be pushing harder to get it.

I would say its a good thing!

You'll be alright you fag....

Nothing wrong with an ache, but as Kieron says, and I should of told you the other day its just because your not used to it yet

xr-stu

it was more than an ache, felt like id actually damaged the muscle! feels better today, back down to the achey stage now! just didnt want to be pushing myself that hard if it was a bad thing!

So you don't know what real training feels like but your dying to get on the gear

Seems to me like your not ready for it yet You need to train hard for a bit first.

im not doing a massive course kieron, paul has advised me on it and i take his word for it that im doing the right thing. i do understand where youre coming from though! i am new to the serious weight training side of things! i did alot of lighter more bog standard weight training a while ago but not really got to know what im doing and hitting them hard til now!

you have damaged the muscle, but thats good! to be able to increase mass you muscles need to be torn and they will rebuild them selfs bigger and stronger each time

xr-stu

thats what i thought, i know thats how the process worked but just wasnt sure if you could go over the top and do to much...

You dont need roids yet dude, atleast wait till you plautea!

Im not on them, im on creatine and still my muscles get larger!

JamboRS

too much trianing can have negative affects on building,damaging the muscle is good as long as you give it the nutrients and rest to recover,training a muscle that has not had time to recover will result in your muscle not growin to its full potential or an injury which will set you back,and please will everyone stop with the roids is the answer,seriously people who take roids without years of training really havent a clue,as said above wait till you plautea then consider them,do a lot of research into it as is the side affects really worth it when you can eat your way to a bigger body

if you take suppliments,eat right,train right, then you won't need steroids.

just the lazy way of building up.
