Hit the weights hard but take it easy your still growing -------------- I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it is gone past me I will turn to see fear's path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain

Throw some cardiovascular exercise in with the weights, good to develope your cardiovascular health at this age also. You should make some great gains with your developing testosterone. -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything....

Your metabolism will boost, and you will shed fat and get leaner and more muscular. Try to eat 5 times per day, nice balanced meals, and this will help rev metabolism. The good healthy habits you learn now will stick with you the rest of your life! -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything....
