Im a competive bodybuilder. Training is important but food and rest mean more. First thing first you need to access your pyhsique and decide where you need the most work (size, muscular gains). Next design a protocol and regimne around this. For example, let say your offseason and you know sunday your going to be having a refeed or cheat meal, and lets say your legs are ur weakest bodypart. Train those monday as your glcogen stores will be full and ready to pound out a good heavy workout monday. Heravy weight is relitive, there is no sense in pushing heavy weight if you cant feel the contraction in the muscle, this is bodybuilding not powerlifting. I can squat 750, deadlift 750, and bench 500.... do i use these weights in my training? NO bc its just not neccesary. wanna build muscle keep the muscle under constant tension.

here is a good beginner routine

chest/ shoulders
back
off
arms
legs
off
repeat

you need a mix of these three things
-heavy controlled weight but still feeling the muscle contract
-compound movemnet
- volume sets so u can help trap growth hormones in the muscle

Drop weight and focus on engaging the muscle you are supposed to be working with each exercise, then build from there with tempo and more weight.. Plyometric exercises, cardio, lots of water, more cardio and super clean eating.

Good Luck

Awesome!

Check out Nerd Fitness. They gave me a lot of information about weightlifting that I was completely clueless about. They also have different programs, depending on what you're looking to do.

Plus, it's a nerdy take on exercise. Gotta love that.

Ps you have an incredible body already! What I wouldn't give for a butt like that!

Ya, just my goal booty pic, I also would die for that butt...and I'm gonna die trying

Don't you feel a bit uncomfortable posting up a profile pic of someone that's not you? Then asking advice how to improve your body knowing everyone is looking at it and wondering how to help.

Bizaaaaaaare.....

Um nope, people use motivational pics all the time and pretty sure I included in my height/weight and general fitness level to give an idea of where I'm starting at. Asking for me and a friend (did not include her pic so maybe its super bizaaaaaare), just looking for a general starting routine.

Edit to add if you're 5'4" 120-130 you're going to have to cut first, probably 5-10lb fat. That body is about 16-18% and very youthful.
Keep squatting the whole way through your cut. Then do a clean(accurate) bulk after, then.....phew....cut again.

Good luck.

Chickentuna (the woman in the photo) is 39, IIRC. She's just in ridiculous shape.

*Edit, nope-- she's 46, if this page is correct. Wow, that's amazing.
