Hello how is everyone.

Im new so forgive me if i ask some stupid questions

i use to go to the gym 4 times a week doing upper and lower body and cardio.

I have now changed that to working out at home. 2 days a week

I train to failure on these days hence only doin it 1-2 times a week to allow recovery formy muscles.

Their is no doubt I am getting stronger, i can notice it and so can everyone else, the thing i am lacking is definition.

Some days ill wake up ot do a work out for instance and youll be able to see my pecks lol some days (like now hence im here) its like im fully flat and theres nufin.

I use to have nice pecks and didnt change anythign but upped my workout weight but im losing them. I haev absolutey no clue why im getting stronger but losing any tone or any bulk tht i had. I am qwuite a small perosn tho.

:-s post your diet you make no sense

Hey Chris, diet certainly plays a large part, but there's another factor which I'm surprised no-one else has touched on yet...

I don't think training twice a week is enough. I know you're going to failure now, and that's a good thing, but I think more is needed. When you only train twice weekly, I think you end up doing a lot of stuff not very thoroughly. It's better to split your routine over more days, and rotate through each muscle group.

Check out our "Bodybuilding for beginners" articles. You'll find them under the Resources menu at the top of the page.

I agree with the others that the diet and amount of days you are training is the key. How about posting some pics of yourself and posting up a workout journal so the others can critique where you might be going wrong.

I think your small increases and decreases in pec size is because of pump and water retention.

Dont worry about day to day fluctuations and just keep putting on size.

enjoy
