Should I try to do more sets with less reps, or more reps, but less sets? Any foods that help with the building of muscles? How often should I lift? (At present, I do it about 2-3 times a week). |
Good info so far. But I'm intrigued as to why you wish to have "bulkier arms"? Aim for a slender athletic look that's also healthy. Going abit of topic it doesn't matter if you body is carrying 15st of muscle or 15st of fat the heart still has to work that much harder to pump the blood around. Stay lean and keep your femininity
