gj op, hope you liked it and you keep it up. seriously just keep showing up and you'll feel better.
>>
>>36663076 okay so like I have no idea what kinda routine to do so I did cardio for 30 minutes and then did some ab workouts, not really trying to get buff but i'd like to slim down
>>
any routine recommendations?
>>
>>36663120
I mean we would suggest doing something like starting starting strength with cardio but cardio is still better than nothing.
>>
>>36663038
Did anybody encourage/inspire/motivate you?
>>
>>36663368
well not exactly, I just wanted to treat my body better
>>
Why do you pay to walk?
>>
>>36663356
I did this one machine where you extend your arms back and pull forward, did about 20 of those on the 70 lb? i think I dont know but it was a pretty good arm workout for someone like me
>>
>>36663405
>I just wanted to treat my body better
This is the first step...

Have you read the sticky?
>>
>>36663200
what routine you choose depends on what your goals are and where you're starting from
>>
>>36663433
extends your arms to the back? or out to the side? Prob a chest fly machine. More for your chest.
Anyhow, keep at it bro. Just remember.... this shit is going to take time. Don't get discouraged when you don't see shit happening overnight.

>>36663429

>>36663446
I skimmed it, this is my first time on this board

>>36663461
that sounds about right, and I am fully aware that results do not come in the next day, I am
prepared to make this a habit

>>36663453

I am making a small goal to slim down before the end of the summer, which this goal is small simply because I ride a bike to work and im very active at my job and with any free time I have i will work on my body.
>>

SS + GOMAD
4 scoops a weight gainer every day 2-3 times a day
>>
>>36663878
I am a vegan though, so maybe GOAMAD?
>>
>>36663918
why are you a vegan?
>>
>>36663921
Its a long story how I started but Ive adapted to the lifestyle very comfortably
>>
>>36663951
Alright, remember to supplement with vitamin b12, fish oil would do wonders aswell if you are allowed to eat those.
How did you get fat on a vegan diet?
>>
>>36663979
when I first transitioned into it I was very large like 265 almost 270 and now ive dropped down significantly to 240ish because of becoming a vegan. most of the stuff left behind is flab so thats mostly why im trying to slim down first then look into getting more muscle
>>
>>36663038
i found the best way to continue going back to the gym is to reward myself with some healthy food like hot dogs and juice after my workouts. give it a go
>>
>>36663038
when did you first go to the gym, OP?
>>
>>36663587
lol i recently maxed the one at my gym moving to the free weight section now
>>
This person is trolling you all stop being stupid
>>
>>36663038
