See thats a problem right there, although push ups are great, they are for cutting up your body. So this is a possible reason why your getting more cut and toned rather than getting more bulk.

Incorrect once again.

The only thing that matters is your calory balance. If you've ate more than you've burned you will gain weight. If you eat less than you burn you will loose weight.

Incorrect once again ? Seriously you need to stop trying and proving me wrong all the time, like I said before find something I have said that has been wrong, if you can't than close your mouth.

There are different exercises for bulking and for cutting up. Just like there is different exercises for anerobic exercise, as there is for aerobic exercise.

L_I_S said before he does pushups for 2 minutes, this is an endurance exercise, and will not help in bulking. He is not lifting heavy and he is doing many reps. For eg. it is like doing 10kg benchpress for 2 minutes, probably even lighter.

You should check out the rest of the post where you got my quote from, because im sure i said you have to EAT, and im sure ive said it before in other posts that you have to eat if you want to bulk.

naa i rest for 2mins between evrything. i do 30 push ups with 2 sets. wat if i put about 8kg on my back and do push ups? ive tried and its alot harder

My advice is to switch doing push ups to doing bench. You dont have to give it up all together, but you should include bench press into your routine.

Have you been weighing yourself? Have you been putting on weight or has it been constant for along time?

ahh i c. ok ill do bench...im going 2 have 2 buy more plates

i wiegh my self regurlary its been 65-68kg for a wile. im eating tuna wen theres no food so i can gain some wieght  :thumbsup:

If your weight has been constant for a long time its because your not eating enough.

Remember what i said try and eat a satifying high carb meal every two hours. And cut down on as much cardio as possible. This includes freestyle, but if dont wanna cut down on it, make sure you drink heaps of water during freestyle, and eat alot after....ALOT

yea ill try eat more. my wieght hasnt moved much in a wile. i drink alot of water wile freestyling :thumbsup:

thanks for all the advice guys. appreciate it

Manipulations in your nutrient intake are the main factor in getting cut up, and how you do it doesn't matter. If your daily caloric expenditure exceeds your daily caloric intake on a consistent basis, you will lose fat and get more cut.

sorry i dont know wat muscle fibre means and all that

Quote
Type I vs. Type II Fibers
Several different types of muscle fiber can be found in most skeletal muscles: Type I and two (in humans) and three (in mice) subtypes of Type II fibers. Each type differs in the myosin it uses and also in its structure and biochemistry.
Type I Fibers
loaded with mitochondria and
depend on cellular respiration for ATP production
fatty acids the major energy source
resistant to fatigue
rich in myoglobin and hence red in color (the "dark" meat of the turkey)
activated by small-diameter, thus slow-conducting, motor neurons
also known as "slow-twitch" fibers
dominant in muscles used in activities requiring endurance (leg muscles) and those that depend on tonus, e.g., those responsible for posture
Type IIb Fibers
few mitochondria
rich in glycogen and
depend on creatine phosphate and glycolysis for ATP production
fatigue easily with the production of lactic acid
low in myoglobin hence whitish in color (the white meat of the turkey)
activated by large-diameter, thus fast-conducting, motor neurons
also known as "fast-twitch" fibers
dominant in muscles used for rapid movement, e.g., those moving the eyeballs.

The other subtypes of Type II fibers have properties intermediate between those of Type IIb and Type I.

Guy has 45000 posts (general chat posts don't count on this forum) and he has sick eduaction where he has learned about nutrition on a chemical level. If I see him post some more interesting studdies that I think might benefit some of you guys here I'll be sure to do it  :thumbsup:

And Jono no hard feelings, I must've misunderstood you.

After 2 days of rest (fucking gym closed on holidays what kind of bullshit is that) I'm finally going back to the gym! Chest bicep ab day today. Going back to my old schedule.

Sorry for the late response, pushups by itself is not good for bulking. Yeah you can put 8kg on your back, but dont go for 30 seconds. Do like 10 pushups 3 sets, and if its too easy make it heavier

i've gotten considerably "bulkier" by doing pushups. it's about how much you eat before and after doing them, and how you do them (don't do pushups fast. take your time :cheers:)

Yeah so far I've only done pushups, because I like to stay lean, but I've put on NO bulk, all I've got is definition, so I'm starting weights tomorrow actually. I'm also buying a punching bag for home finally  :biggrin:

you can keep your pullup and pushup routine and just increase your protein intake and you'll be fine. how do you think most fighters get big? they don't really use weights, and if they do it's minimal.

just look at cheik congo
