Well, ive recently (like 3/4 months) been doing some gym stuff, and past few weeks wanna be focusing on getting quite built, not hugly built thats just ugly tbh but someink yeah.
im pretty big, not being modest but is big boned, im 86kilos, go 3 times a week, at average, probably lose about 550-600 calories eachtime i go to gy within 45-1hr mins, im pretty young, year 9 lol, ive got muscle now but it's not burning as much as i thought it would of done by now, only been doing it pretty hard for the past month now, i know i gotta wait but the other 2/3 months were pretty tough.
i just wanna have a few tips on how to get better, like, how many mins should i do on tredmill and how much resistance?
and how to improve my weights, i dont use any of the dumbells because i wasn't shown how to use em ( i could ask but im not to sure atm ) and i cant see how much of a difference they make compared on how to the machines can.
what is stuff like supplyments? and how much can i eat and how much do i have to lose to get slimmer and stronger? ect ect all that sorta stuff
sorry to go on but i wanna get somewhere, dont care how long it takes, would like it by june tho haha

thanks for reading guys

Mate in yr 9 arent you like 14? (give proper age by the way not many people can be bothered to work that out)

Just stick with cardio for the moment until your a little bit older and have near fully developed. It is boring but worth it, i waited til i was 16 and had been training with machines for 2 months building a base.

Think in terms of years mate, and not months and that may give you a better idea

Adampski, Soooo many questions there. It's clear you have a lot of enthusiasm and need some guidance so it's best to be a little more specific about your age, and maybe deal with one issue at a time instead of trying to absorb all the years of experience there are on this board in one thread.

First & foremost, if you are under 16, I would advise that any resistance work is kept moderate as your epiphiseal ghrowth plates will not yet have sealed. I frequently get queries on training from young lads & my answer is always the same. I think the enthusiasm is great, but patience is needed too. Sadly, this is not something I find is in abundance when you're that age!

Hey, it's not stupid bud, at least you had the good sense to seek experienced advice first. It's great to see the enthusiasm. it may be of use in these early stages to use light weights only, so you can master exercise form for when you are ready to hit the iron hard.

I'd work on the basic compound moves that will provide a perfect foundation:
Squats
Deadlifts
Incline bench pressing (flat benching carries too much risk)
barbell rows.

Like I say though, weight is to be minimal. All you need to do is focus on getting technique right & you'll be streets ahead of most guys when you start training hard.

Cheers, ill work on them, but what would you suggest for the cardio? ok as it is or try and push it a bit more?

cant say i dont feel like a bit of a fool saying what i said in the first post and getting replys back the oppisite of what i thought i would get, but i'm glad i did ask anyway cuz now i know what to do and when to do it, thanks again!

Cardio is fine Adam. Push ups, sit ups you can do as many as you like, its just the resistance training that you need to wait a while with. In the next 4 years your bodys going to change so much on its own with out you training hard, so leave it be. Diet and cardio, flexability perhaps boxing or martial arts are things you could look at now to get a good grounding for the future. With weights stick to pauls suggestion twice a week with not too much weight.

- and nobody is saying go away and come back in a few years! Stay and read and learn! By the time your 16-18 you'll know more than most of us!
I have a younger brother your age and he has just started the gym too, I think its great - i wish i had started so early.
