You having difficulty to gain weight and you add cardio. That defeat the purpose although its good for cardiovascular health but you should focus one at a time.

With that much research time, they will encounter also omarisuf, eric helms, matt ogus, vitvirtuan physique, etcs and attain enlightenment.

Don't think so. They will skip those videos. Ppl these days are lazy ass. They don't want face reality. They want shortcut. Most probably will watch those tabata videos and thinking that's the way to get jacked. laugh.gif

when i think back to my days as a newbie in the gym years ago, the best investment i made was to get a personal trainer . the trainer will show you the ropes about how to perform all the basic strength training routines, and most importantly of all, how to use the free weights. rm1k well spent. after you have perfected the basic movements then you can workout on your own or with buddies.

You got a good trainer. Good for you.
I saw bunch of ppl go curl and situps all day long. Pity them.

Can't blame those PT really.
Imagine how many newbie quit because of compound exercises.
Must give them some easy routine and false hope.

I offered to teach my newbie friends compound exercises for free and all they want to know is how to use machines...then complain about no visual progress in just one month...

Needless to say I don't offer free coaching anymore

Typical gym goers just use the machine everyday to look pumped.

Its like balloon. You don't pump then it will become smaller by days.

Many beginners will not get result.

Why? Read too much. Worry too much. Build anxiety more than muscle.

yes but, supplement is more convenient to prepare, store , and consume.

btw its not expensive also. big 10 lb bag only costs rm300.

Yes its convenient to prepare store and consume. Also very convenient to get diabetes.

One big bag 10lbs only RM 300 but very less servings. One serving is like 2 huge scoops.

I used to drink hell lot of Milo from my previous office cause its free. Not much difference bro.

so whey+milo can increase weight ?

Any calories u put in can increase weight as long as you're eating more than you're using.

Your body is what you put in your mouth. If u want increase weight; eat more than u currently do. If you lose weight; eat lesser than what ur eating now. simple as that.

Actually I eat a lot.

But my weight always around 65kg..

That's every skinny ppl's statement. I can eat a lot but still skinny. Same to obese ppl, i eat very less. What is alot and less? Subjective. How much is a lot for u? By serving? By Meals? Start counting calorie then u will know.

Law of thermodynamics.
