Lightbulb Newbie advice on Weight Training & Diet

Hello Everyone

I'm new to this forum and new to the whole body building thing as well so thought this is a good place to get some pro advice and help.

I'm one of those thin guys who just can't put any weight on and very little muscle if I try.

I have started training which I have done previously for a month or two. Since I'm looking to gain weight and muscle I'm thinking of doing steroids and wanted to be pointed in the right direction or get some advice how and were to start.

I'm not looking to put of muscle upon muscle but just bulk up a little and put on a little weight.

Any advice anyone!!

Thanks in advance


Raheem

Hi Raheem,

Post up your diet first of all and make sure that's the best it can be before getting on the gear...

When I enrolled on here, I asked for advice on using Clenbuterol and was advised against it before sorting out my training and diet regime which was probably the best advice I could have been given.

And here I am, with new diet with split training and happy so far.

If you're still keen, have a look around the forum cos there's some really good information on here and look up threads posted by Pscarb, TinyTom and Britbb, they're all very much in the know about these things.

Welcome to the forum!

Re: Newbie advice on Weight Training & Diet

Hello Dan

thanks for replying,

well l I dont really have a proper routine!!light cereal breakfast, sandwich for lunch, biscutes, cakes or similer for tea and then dinner which could be anything from meat to veg. weekends its a full on breakfast and full on lunch.

I'm a 9-5 worker. Training is every other day but dont have a proper routine as such just what the traniner has advised me which is a bit of everything.

Re: Newbie advice on Weight Training & Diet

Hello raheem,the above statement is why you are making no progress.

First off,get steroids right out of your head,they are pointless in your situation as you are uneducated in the fundamentals of gaining weight,and,as such,you are far from ready.

You need to train hard,eat lots and rest properly and you will grow fine.

Spend hours reading the diet and training sections and then come back with a template of your planned regime.Also post up your age and stats.

Base your training around compound movements(bench,rows,squats.deads) over 3 sessions a week.

As for your diet,you should have at least 6 meals per day,consisting of predominantly complex carbs,protein and healthy fat.

As said,all info is within this forum.Good luck.

Re: Newbie advice on Weight Training & Diet

ill second paramaniac!

i thought my diet was ok until i came here

i was very under-par in terms of what i wanted to do with myself

have you got any supplements as of yet? whey etc?

but i think your diet is the first thing to get sorted, in my opinion the hardest aswell!
