Well... This dude disagrees with you:
I think that one of the most common mistakes a beginning / wannabe bodybuilder can make is to:
1) Start out on an 'advanced' bodybuilding program trying to build 'ript abz' or 'peaked biceps' when they don't have any basic lean body mass to work on shaping / sculpting. So in other words, not doing their squats, deadlifts, benches, rows, overhead presses, and pull-ups.
2) Lament that they are 'hard gainers' when they haven't been doing the above mentioned lifts (that release growth stimulating hormone and testosterone) and drinking their milk (i.e., eating enough food).
3) Think that you can retain a 6 pack while building muscle mass (e.g., bulk and cut at the same time)
I'm not aiming for increased muscle mass, though. I'm aiming to lift more in the snatch and clean and jerk. Bulgarian elite weightlifters train 6 times per day. To put some perspective on my training once per day...
