i did

So what do you need a DYEL tier PT just fucking read the sticky, man up and lift weights.
Faggot.

The sticky doesn't teach you how to lift though. It just tells you to do things.

pretty much this? especially with form being rather important and all that.
I had a personal training session a few months ago when i tested a different gym, methinks I'll just have to sit down and try to re-trace my steps through that.
I only remember 2/3 of the routine though

Read stronglifts.com for how to lift.

thanks for the link. im a check it out and hopefully get some reminders.
Follow SS (Starting Stength): http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ:The_Program
Once you complete SS, start the routine in pic related. Choose whatever side, it does not really matter.
Calculate your TDEE: http://www.fitnessfrog.com/calculators/tdee-calculator.html
Add 500 to your TDEE, the value you get is your new daily caloric intake, do not exceed or go under it. Eat a lot of meats, nuts, and veggies. Drink a gallon of water a day.
Once you get to around 20% BF (Body Fat) do a cut, do this by subtracting 500 from your TDEE, setting the value you get as your new daily caloric intake.
It's just a cycle of bulks and cuts, where on your bulks you improve your lifts, whereas on your cuts you maintain your lifts and shed the bodyfat you gain from your bulks. Do this until you reach your goal physique, and then maintain forever.

Thnaks a lot. I guess I just need to be a man and claim the damn squat rack early in the morning.
I'm learning that its all about that persistence. growth is so damn slow going especially with out the right nutrition. Hell its impossible without the nutrition. I really underestimated that.
>>35351366
huh, totally weird on the deadlift. never thought that was a thing. guess ill give it a try.
thanks for the help anon. im trying to find a nice reaction image, but they're all kind of smug.
so lets pretend this one is me legitimately flirting with you. no homo.

Do SL 5x5, learn proper squat form with the bar, same with deadlifts
