ITT we help gym noobs by teaching em things we wished we knew when we started out
1. Train 6 or 7 days a week. As a natty you don't have the muscle building power of a steroids abuser so you have to stimulate muscles almost every day to see actual gains. Many noobs waste their noob gains phase by training too little.
2. Abs are made in the kitchen. You can do 1000 crunches a day but it will do jack shit for your abs because spot reduction is a myth. Having abs is just a matter of having low body fat
3. Isolation is useless. It's better to stick with just compounds, they hit everything. You can get big arms just by benching and doing pull ups so curls are a waste of time.
4. Oats and peanut butter are great nutrition. They will build massive muscles and they're good for you health. Eat a lot of both.
5. A caloric surplus is not necessary if you just train a lot, especially as a beginner. Noob gains are awesome for building muscle so you're best off just maingaining, cause you won't have to cut.

>train 6 or 7 days a week
don't do this
post body immediately
I'm a girl, not going to post body. I started as a VERY underweight skelly with a skinnyfat belly and got abs by gaining weight and muscle. So having abs isn't just a matter of having low body fat and eating less, you do actually need to train and build up your abs, to have anything to reveal.

What's wrong with oats?
Autism.
>Train 6 or 7 days a week.
Didn't read the rest. You are absolutely, 100% moronic and anyone who listens to you is fricking themselves over
It’s all about moving the weight. Form, time under tension, etc doesn’t matter. Make the weight move by any means necessary. Also low rep>high rep for muscle building
>Abs are made in the kitchen. You can do 1000 crunches a day but it will do jack shit for your abs because spot reduction is a myth. Having abs is just a matter of having low body fat
Bullshit. If you have nothing to reveal, you just end up with skinnyfat stomach, even if you become underweight.
>Isolation is useless. It's better to stick with just compounds, they hit everything. You can get big arms just by benching and doing pull ups so curls are a waste of time.
Isolation is nearly useless if you do full body 4+ days a week, just because you accumulate so much volume already through compounds. In other cases, you're going to need isolations.
>Train 6 or 7 days a week.
literally all of these except 4 are horse shit
>oats and peanut butter
>good
lmao
how the FRICK is it bad
oats good
peanut butter bad
There’s no such thing as the noob gains window. Noob gains is just referring to the idea that for first time lifters they put on muscle much faster than more experienced lifters. It’s not like if you take longer than 3 months your locked out of your newb gains forever. But after you’ve put on say 15 pounds muscle it becomes more difficult to add more muscle.
you can get most of your protein from eggs
I tried this but my parents got mad at me for going through a weeks worth of eggs in 2 days
try not living with your parents you underage gay
Muscles need downtime to heal moron dont do 6 or 7 days a week
Be sure to tip the front desk people on your way out
>Train 6 or 7 days a week.
Although beginners are often recommended doing a full body program three times a week, actually doing a split focusing on hypertrophy might actually be more what most young lifters are after. It's not really terrible advice telling young lifters to do Push/Pull/Legs or Upper/Lower six times a week, at least if you're goal is looking good.
>Abs are made in the kitchen.
This is correct. The main thing to do for having visible abs is having low body fat. Of course you work them out indirectly while doing compound lifts, and you might need to do some direct work especially for obliques, but the most important is having low body fat.
>Isolation is useless.
Beginners should stick to mostly learn the compounds in the beginning and get good form, as they're the most important for progress and the lifts that will make people look good in the end. Squats, deadlifts, bench press, overhead press, chins, pull ups, dips, and rows are the most important compound lifts. Though it's a stretch saying that they'll be enough to build big arms, you'll probably need to do some triceps and biceps work to get arms, chins and pull ups don't hit biceps enough to get big arms.
>Oats and peanut butter are great nutrition.
Oats are especially good and cheap. Peanut butter isn't bad but it's a tad expensive.
>Noob gains are awesome for building muscle
Most of the things listed here are wrong though. Some fat beginners can recomp by just eating at maintaining, but in general it's recommended doing bulking and cutting cycles because it's just more effective and you quickly spin your wheels trying to recomp. Noob gains are mostly strength i.e. neuromuscular adaption and not that much hypertrophy. The beginner programs are mostly strength based to make a strength base that's going to help for hypertrophy, but you really should do hypertrophy training in addition to your 3x5 lifts if your goal is looking good.
is peanut butter and oatmeal actually bad considering this shit is supposed to be ironic
im talking about natural PB too
1. Nothing wrong with the weight going down if you start doing sloppy reps.
2. PPL is better for beginners than a full body.
3. Train abs, doesnt matter how lean you get if you dont work your abs.
4. Warm up.
5. Do biceps and tricep isolations. Also forearms CURLS FOR THE GIRLS
6. Do some grip training. Will pay off when you move up in weight later.
7. Nicotine kills apatite.
8. Nicotine + Caffeine will get your blood going.
Lift for a year then blast juice

Only fat fricks believe this. You have to actually train abs for them to be visible, otherwise you just end up skelly mode. Actually every single one of those "tips" are terrible advice and OP is just trolling.
>Actually every single one of those "tips" are terrible advice and OP is just trolling.
Only the last tip is really wrong, the others are not wrong per se but not necessarily what you would recommend. You'd recommend a full body program over a 6 day split like PPL or UL, for abs low body fat is mandatory but you still gotta get those abs muscles, compounds are most important but some isolation work is necessary, and oats and peanut butter are great. But recommending that you shouldn't lift at a surplus if you just train a lot, and that noob gains are building muscle (it's strength and neuromuscular adaption) are just wrong.
