Just started on a strength program for 4 weeks, really enjoying it so far. Loads of compound lifts, high sets, low reps.

Going to start going the gym with my mate soon. I'm going because I need to really just put on weight and muscle instead of being a little skinny bag head. Thing is, my diet is sh*te. I have a few mates who go and they do all that protein heavy diet. That the way to go?

Consume 1g of Protein per Pound of Body Weight
​

So if you weigh 200lbs, consume 200g of protein per day.
​

try to get most of your protein through food if possible, rather than just loads of protein shakes.
lift heavy and focus on compound lifts would be my advice.

plenty of knowledgeable lads on here so you will get plenty of good advice.

good luck

Nice one mate, I'll start this when I start going.

the protein intake i posted is not a perfect/strict way to work it out, but its a decent starting point.

That's fine mate it's no worries. I just need a decent starting point like you said it is so at least you've gave me something to start off with.

Probably just the lifestyles by mine because I can get it on the cheap if I can prove I'm in full time education, which I am. Also it's a two minute walk and tidy birds go.

Good reasons lid. Where do you live? Get some aftershave and splash it all over.

Garston in South Liverpool lid. I might have to, nice one Chics.

Good luck lid. Stick at it. I remember first going the gym and thinking I stuck out like a sore thumb. Get a workout from the trainer there and stick at it.

Cheers lid. I'm going to be going with a mate so it'll be motivation to have someone I know around really. Why did you want to know where I live anyway? Haha.
