What the hell kind of advice is that for a beginner?!
The truth. The squat is everything.
I agree to some extent but not until you puke! I would also choose the Deadlift over the squat but squat is a close 2nd
If you have never puked post squats, you are a *kitten*.
I have only ever puked due to illness or intoxication to the best of my knowledge so I guess I am a "kitten" and what is that? I'm assuming a p*ssy
Yep. Not saying you gotta do it every training session, but if you have never puked post squat you ain't going hard enough.0 -
Well that's fine if that's your thing but I find vomitting generally unpleasant0

Of course it's unpleasant. Training should not be pleasant ever.0

Splits are better than full body workouts.
Consistency is key.
Form is everything.
Why are splits better than full body workouts?
I think it is a better idea to begin training with compound lifts to build a good strength base.0 -
These all are good tips! Thanks everyone I'm looking forward to trying out the weight machines at work.1
