    My best advice would be to change your entire workout routine because from what i've heard you said its been about 3.5 months and after a good amount of working out you must change your workouts so your body does not plateau and get used to the same workouts every week. You seem very big for that weight keep it up man and also change up supplements. if you are using creatine cycle it one month on and one off, and also since your 22 years old you really should consume about 150 grams of protein per day

    a million) intense reps/low weight = firming low reps/intense weight = power/mass 2) working to failure is often a mass construction scheme. no remember if it extremely is easily useful can exceedingly much be a non secular debate. 3) you will desire to many times paintings each and each muscle team as quickly as each week. no remember if or no longer they're sore or no longer is irrelevant... there's no income. 4) It does not rather impact the improve of the muscle. this is even however, pretty effective.

    well the worst thing you can do in weight lifting is reaching your plateau, and this problem can be solved by changing your workout routine through changing exercises, sets, reps, rest time etc. And the longest period you can spend on one workout split is 3 months, which you have done already. You can find many mass building routines in some magazines, my fav is muslemag.

    Here is a great one http://www.shopmusclemag.com/product.asp?productid...
