<description><![CDATA[My name is Steve Robbins and the first and most logical question a person has is, on what authority do I have to be giving fitness advice? Good question. Let's answer it. First and foremost I am not a professional anything when it comes to bodybuilding or fitness. Nor am I a professional in the field of medicine or nutrition. What I am is just like 99.99% of the people you see everyday walking around.

<description><![CDATA[In the event you are a real beginner, and we all were at one time, let me first get a little terminology out of the way.  An exercise is the movement, or lift, that you are doing.  A set is the actual act of moving the weight a certain amount of times, an a rep is the 1 time movement of the weight.  So a "set of 8 reps of bench press" means you will be doing the exercise bench press where by you raise and lower the weight 8 times without stopping.  I recommend doing 5 sets of each exercise.  Why?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Muscle building is a continuum.  There is no "end" to it.  You can always build more muscle than you have.  What makes this really challenging is that the process by which you efficiently build muscle changes as you move through the continuum.  Beginning lifters should use different training parameters than professionals.  A further complicating factor is that your body is a variable as well.  How do you account for that?]]></description>
