Elf.. it's what you DO with those weights that's critical!

It's not really critical though is it? I mean, it's not like if you do summat slightly wrong, that the Large Hadron Collider will fail causing The End Of The World, is it?

He tirelessly tells people about diet and exercise, repeating the same thing again and again and people refuse to listen.

oh they listen alright, they just refuse to change their ways.

How so?

He tirelessly tells people about diet and exercise, repeating the same thing again and again and people refuse to listen.

I sometimes wonder why he bothers.

Body builder types can suffer from all sorts of health problems, like high blood pressure and joint problems and that from over exerting the body beyond it's reasonable natural limits. Best to just stay the same sort of body type, but just tone up and be fit.

elf, no one was on about making the OP gain 'massive muscles'. he doesn't want to look like a body builder and no one tried to make him into one. he got (mostly) sensible advice about making his muscles a bit bigger.

and no one said not to swim, but swimming alone won't make the OP's arms much larger, which is what he asked about specifically.
