The TV documentary special “WOMEN OVER 40: STILL CLIMBING THE HILL, NOT OVER IT”, produced by Dr. Elliott Haimoff of Global Science Productions, and hosted by the fitness super-model Brenda Kelly, included a brief interview with Valentina Chepiga who has won every major female bodybuilding championship (Ms. Olympia, Ms. International, etc.), and what makes it even more of an accomplishment is that she won these after she was 40. She was one of the star interviewees – check out DVDs for sale at www.Amazon.com and www.globalscience.com

I weigh about 108 pounds and about 5 foot 1 and I’ve been working out everyday for about a couple of months, but I can’t get my muscles to shape. What do I need to do? And also, what is the bst way to get muscle intensity?

drop sets. something like this (biceps)
10 at 25lbs
10 at 20lbs
10 at 15 lbs
10 at 10 lbs
10 at 5lbs
when you get to 5 its gonna feel like 50.

Or another thing to build muscle tone is to do more reps of less weight example: 20 reps of 20lbs instead of 10 reps of 30 lbs

I’ve heard that its better to weight train before the season starts so it gives you a good base, but then how much should you continue to weight train during your competition season? And how much do you think it could improve my time? I run a 1:43 half marathon, but my training isn’t that structured.

you can do weight training. But focus on high reps with low weight, otherwise you will bulk up with too much "fast twitch" muscle fibres, which will just slow you down over long distances.

I am a coordinator for a university and was just given permission to start my own fitness program. It can be for anyone, students, community, staff. I wanted to know ideas of things people would want in a fitness program. How can I make the best one possible. Any ideas or suggestions are much appreciated.

You’ve got a wide range of ages and types, not to mention whether you want both sexes in your group. What type of program do you want? Since you are the one leading it, where do you want this to go? How physical do you want it to be? What level of intensity do you see this program being? You may need to have two or three programs at different days. Do you want weights or resistance machines, cardio only or a mix of both? What’s your budget? What can you do? How big is your facility?

Check out local exercise programs already in the area, like the local Curves or Jazzercise places. Locate and talk to some independent gym owners. Get ideas and then do an impromptu survey to see what your clientele would like and how much time they have to do it per day. Then, get your results together and do that. You may not be successful right away but you will catch on and go from there.

Also, you may want to check out the U.S. Army and other military branches. Bases have very transient groups but have workout programs for enlisted personnel and their dependents. I understand that over the last few years they have become very user friendly and very duplicatable.

I hope this helps. Good Luck.

I work out every few days and i have tried a lot of different lifting routines. Right now i lift 4 sets at 8-10 reps. I am strong and ripped but not "big." I think this might be because of my type of workout. I know there is difference between strength lifting and bodybuilding lifting. Should i do a bodybuilding type of workout to gain weight? Also, what is good bodybuilding routine?

well the bottom line is….. if u want to gain more mass you have to be eating alot more calories..a bout 20x your body weight in calories…

and u have to be lifting heavy.. 4 – 6 reps a set.
and u would have to focus on more powerlifting exercises, bench press, squats, deadlifts, etc
that is more powerlifting exercises…

u need to do a combination of both.. and workout hard.. 40 – 60 mins 4 – 5 times a week
eat 1.5 grams of protein for each pound u weigh
train each muscle once a week

mon chest
tue biceps triceps
wed back
thur shoulders
