So this is the goal of most of us and certainly the reason for most newbs dropping out and not sticking with it, can't get big now! The thing is you can, or at least look the part.
Most of the new guys come in and what do they pound the hardest? Arms and chest right? Those are very needed part of the "big" thing but not the quickest avenue to "looking big". I ran through the big look a long time ago and at some point began asking myself, what makes these guys look so big? I kept coming back with 2 body parts that made "the most" difference and that was delts and traps. Yes, you need balance but if you want some early motivation, a quick 4 inches on your width and that "damn I'm getting huge" feeling so you don't feel like you're spinning your wheels, delts and traps are the paydirt. Not only can they make you begin "the look", they will blow up much quicker than arms and chest.
So you do this, you work your diet being the most important thing you do, you work your compounds to goals and sleep well, all the givens. Now you work those two muscle groups with extreme intensity and and you do the things to make them big quick so you have motivation to slowly bring the other parts into "balance". Its basically a quick fix to the spinning wheels feeling we all get from time to time.
Traps are a muscle I don't mind working more frequently and I did a post on this. Long time back, in terms of blowing them up quick. I blew mine up even further at one point with this plan and while some will argue its over working them, it worked wonders for me. Anything I used bells for I hit a set of 12 with traps before I set it down. So I get a set of 10 lets say for bi's and before I set down the bells I hit 12 shrugs. You think "well that seems too light"? Its not, you pump them very full of blood in the full workout and they grow in height and mass. You will be amazed at your trap maturity in just one month. I re-employ that routine about one week a month and often even more to stay on top of them. You still get in your shrug day with heavy weight to push them to more maturity but this works , I promise. Take pics, give it a month and be amazed! They will be out of proportion and thats ok because remember, right now you are workig for "the look" nothing says "I workout a lot" like blown up traps which also make the neck bigger.
Now to delts, work the delts heavy and don't forget side lateralls as being where the width comes from. As well employ routines for rear delts. So many people don't put emphasis on rear delts and they are huge in the delt growth! My favorite is taking the tri rope in each hand, step back 5 feet from the machine and pull the center of the rope to your forehead. 4 sets of those with your heavier trap shrugs inbetween on delt day as well and your neck, traps and rear delts feel like they want to explode! The width in delt is amazing though with both single stand up and sit down double and stand up double and single side laterals not forgetting presses of course.
These things will add 4 inches to your width in no time, motivate you to stay in the game and then you continue to build and catch up the other groups until soon enough, you are becoming the complete package. Your shirt look as though they hang from your traps and then stretch out wide over those delts as the body take the natural inward curve down acroos the lats and you "look" much bigger than you actually are..its "the look"....delts and traps guys, delts and traps!
