POLL - Only 8% of people prefer CARDIO!

That's right folks.  The results of our latest survey on Amino Z show that only 8% of people prefer cardiovascular training!  The clear winner was resistance training and coming a close second was a mixed program consisting of both weights and cardio.  This came as a big shock to me - whilst I was betting that weights would win...never in my wildest dreams did I expect it to win by such a large percentage.

Our latest poll is up and running - Will YOU be in shape for Summer?  Summer is only just around the corner now so it's time to get SERIOUS!  Visit our main page to vote and see the current results!

It doesn't matter how you train, eat or supplement.  Unless your body can recover, you won't be going anywhere fast!

Devastating Delts
Under street clothes no one can see your beautifully etched 6 pack or bulging biceps. They can only grasp an overall impression of your physique by your shoulder width.

Full & Partial Repetitions
I packed on 4.5kg of lean mass in only 6 weeks using full and partial repetitions.  How did I accomplish this?

Make Better Gains: Up Your Standards!
Are you happy with your current physique, strength and fitness?  If not, then why?

It's coming up to Summer. I'm at 15% body fat. Should I cut or bulk?

I am on a ketogenic diet to lose body fat. Why do I feel so tired when exercising?
