I actually have some of this, I'll read more about it later.Ever heard of Braggs 'Mother' Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV)? I recommend you read into it.
Also, drink PLENTY of water. It dramatically increases your metabolism. -
Not bodybuilding but I am going to the gym to get in shape. After my knee injury, I gained a bunch of weight. Gained even more when I tried to quit smoking. I stepped on a scale about 4 months ago and saw that I was over 330 pounds. Started watching my meal portions, started spreading out my food intake from twice a day to 6 times a day, and started two hours per day at the gym 5 days a week. So far, I'm at an even 300 pounds. It's still a lot of weight, and I'm nowhere near my goal of 220, but I think a 30 pound loss in 4 months is pretty substantial. My knees and ankles definitely feel the difference.

1/2 cc Sustenon every other day
Lift HEAVY 3-4 hrs a day, 6 days per week
Eat as much high-protein as you can keep down 5-7 equal meals a day

Unless you are a professional, non-natural bodybuilder, I would not recommend the above protocol.

I have a dirt-slow metabolism. I take fitness and conditioning classes, I lift/practice with the football team, I do baseball, and I workout on my own. I control my portions and burn more than I eat. Why am I not cut? I'm thin but only my top 4 abs show, what's up with that?
-
Do some more ab work to define what you have...leg raises(weighted?), crunches, the plank. Keep up with the healthy lifestyle and you will see the results.

You may need to get with a trainer/ nutritionist to help you identify whats going to work. 6 pack abs are very much diet related. Have you had a body fat test? If I'm over 12% BF mine disappear.

I'm usually out of energy cuz I eat so little and work so hard

You can do sit ups and crunches until the cows come home but you wont see them until you sort out your diet.

WRONG! Weight-bearing exercise is any physical activity in which your body works against gravity. It simply means that your feet and legs are supporting or carrying your weight. This type of exercise builds bone mass in youth and maintains it in adulthood. Some examples of weight-bearing exercises include walking, racquet sports, team sports, dancing and climbing stairs. Muscle strengthening exercises build muscle that helps support your bones. Lifting weights, using resistance bands and exercising on resistance machines are ways to strengthen muscle. -
I've never did bodybuilding, but I did powerlifting for two years, and for the last six I've been into cycling and one thing I know for sure is diet is just as important if not more so than the gym, and I think that goes for all sports. Except maybe poker...
-
For beginners its best to start with lightweights as technique is most important, you mite lift heavy but if technique is wrong your muscles wont be engaged and results wont show, whey protein is best as its very rapidly taken in by muscles, i usually take it straight afta workout and b4 bedtime, b4 bedtime because your muscles grow when resting and thruout the night your body needs protein because its quite a long time without food and your body goes into catabolic mode and protein can prevent that
-
Most importantly most people forget or dont even do the main strenght exercises which helps give body more power and growth, DEADLIFTS AND SQUATS, b careful Bcoz you can easily hurt your back its best to watch few videos or ask at the gym

I've been training for about 2.5years now but this last 6months has been really hard because studying at university is pretty much taking all my time. But i'll be on summer holidays soon so hopefully make up for all the time I have lost. I try to workout for size but my metabolism is too quick but I also workout to increase my strength and and love to run so I can increase my stamina (just quit smoking after 6 ish years so I'm doing pretty well in that respect) 😃ADD HASS wrote:

Bro i started off realy skinny and theres a realy good Whey protein made by sci-mx called mass system that will definatly help pack on size and main thing is eat every 3 hours not to fill you up jus so you dont b hungry coz when you let yourself stay hungry your body automatically starts feedin on the prorein in your muscle and stops you from putting on size, iv bin quit smoking 4 3 years started when i was 11 and stopped at 20 n now im 23

Yeah I eat loads and 💩 shit loads tho haha! As I'm getting older my metabolism has been slowing down, (im 21 now) but with uni my eating and sleeping times have been all over the place which are two main factors to packing on weight. But I play football a lot so I like strength building, especially with legs, I hate the feeling when someone tries to push you off the ball. I'm thinking of getting a weighted vest for when I run, do you think this will this help me strengthen my legs? My friend plays basketball and says it's helped him a lot with jumping.

I dont body build, but I love to go to the gym, usually 6 days a week. People don't realize what a mood enhancer exercise is. Its better than taking medication to help fight depression. Some people say im addicted to it, which doesn't bother me at all, because I'd rather be addicted to something healthy than a lot of the other thigs people are addicted to. ;)

Switch to Casein protein at night...slower digesting and feeds the body all night during sleep to prevent from going into catabolic state

I mix a small amount of casien in with my shakes during the day also. Helps provide protein throught the day.

Weight right now is 203 lbs @ 9% BF.
I am shooting for 500 bench. Today I did 440 lbs, so not quite to 500 but working up to it with a solid program.Bench, deads and squat are my core lifts as they should be, and I do 1 body part per week for the most part, throwing in abs 2-3 times a week.
My record squat is 600 lbs, but Tues I did 505 X 10 !! Deadlift is still at 505 lbs.
Not bad for an old guy :)
