Everyone seems to be overthinking this whole excercise thing. This is mainly for the guys, but this will save you hours of asking stupid questions, and months of wasted time jumping programs.

First off, NO, you don't want to look like Brad Pitt in Fight Club. He was 155 pounds, had a fake tan, good lighting, and had a pump in every scene. Nothing impressive there, so this shouldn't be your overall goal, if it is go ahead and click the back arrow at the top of your screen.

Now, find a program and stick with it. No you aren't going to see results in 6 weeks, so quit program hoppping. A good program should last you a year, not 8 weeks. Start with something basic like Starting Strength or stronlifts.

Unless you're absolutely obese, eat like a man. Drink lots of milk, eat tons of meat, eat vegetables. If I hear the word low-carb or paleo, I'll stab you.

  • but but carbs make you fat....... Or was it they provide your body with an awesome source of energy, great for those who train like men?

    Is that anything like a "fluffer"?
