I just started a week ago and my body feels like it was hit by a truck.Ive just started so im only doing light weights right now and some basic chest and stomach excercies.I hope to carry it on for another 6-7 months to get into shape n all.
So any other people here who go to gym regularly
or have a 24 inch bicep?
i was a regular gym goer but the last few months i have let myself go a wee bit, however i am getting back into the groove again. due to my work pattern (4 days on, 4 days off) i struggle to get continuity. what i have started doing is cycling to work (about 20 miles a day) and trying to go to the gym on my days off(except a friday when i play football).
it really depends on what you are aiming for really, but a good gym instructor will help you out. for toning try a body-pump class as well, its absolute murder to begin with and wont bulk you up but will really strengthen all your muscles. i have also recently tried yoga(anyone laughs they go on holiday)and it really helps, i have found a big difference when i play football from yoga, i can turn faster and have better balance.
lastly try mens health,
http://www.menshealth.co.uk/ its full of great advice and their message boards are full of folk who will give you great tips on nutrition, exercises and suppliments.
gonna make this sticky as lots of folk could share their advice here
