Since I've been gaining by changing my diet patterns, I've noticed that my easy-to-manage abs are getting thin slabs of fat on top. Summer is coming and I know the purpose for gaining is increasing caloric gain vs. caloric loss. Is there any type of diet/workout plan to lose the bad fat and gain muscle mass at the same time? Or do the two have to be completely independent? Hey I’m a hardgainer that’s pretty leaned out so far in my process.

First of all pyramiding IS good for hardgainers. If you didn't have your head up your a$$ you would have noticed it didnt say to lift heavy at 12 reps. It said lift heavy at 6 reps on the last set you do. So if the most you can bench is 200 lbs then you would do, 12 reps at 170 lbs, 10 reps at 180 lbs, 8 reps at 190 lbs and 6 reps at 200lbs. For what it is he is exactly right, he stated it works both the slow twitch and the fast twitch fibers and that's exactly what it does. Go be negative some where else! Maybe you should start your own website if your such knowledgable. Clayton-

Because the information here seems a bit vague. I came here looking for a complete weekly workout plan that I could follow. Instead I get forearms: 12 to 6 reps, biceps: 12 to 6 reps, chest: 12 to 6 reps, legs: 12 to 6 reps. I'm going to need more than that. Also, 6 to 12 reps seems pretty high for a hardgainer. How are you supposed to lift heavy at 12 reps? Everything else I've read tells me to stick to 5X5 for the big muscles. I also didn't like how your "complete chest workout" doesn't include a single bench press. Again, how are you supposed to lift heavy using only dumbells? Please reply. -Clayton Are you just starting this website? Because the information here seems a bit vague. I came here looking for a complete weekly workout plan that I could follow.

I would like to work out 3 days a week. Is there anywhere I can find a routine, using the pyramid you talk about? I would like to work out 3 days a week.
