Not reading your blogpost
just lift, homosexual
OP's father here, get off your PC and deadlift gayboy
You sound cute
I fricking hate all of you. I'm better off asking reddit
Is normal to feel sore for the first weeks/months of training it depends on how fat/out of shape you are, just continue moron. Eventually, you will not get too sore and when you do the soreness will go away in less than a day. Simple as.
1. Are you eating enough, or are you skelly?
2. Are you progressing and pushing yourself, or are you just doing reps until you get bored
3. If your hands are hurting, have you tried specifically training grip strength?
1. I'm eating more now than I used to. I'm 54kg and I make sure to have protein
2. I don't push myself often tbh and when I do I'm too tired to keep working out and just go home early
3. I just googled grip strength and seems to be my problem. I will look into this later.
Also I have been trying to make a mini home gym. Not sure if it's better to do little exercise with this and not going to the gym or keep going despite the lack of results. Pic rel (ignore the dress hanging)
>I'm eating more now than I used to. I'm 54kg and I make sure to have protein
If you want to gain muscle you need to gain weight. Just eating more protein isn't enough.
It doesn't have to be fast (0.5kg per week is a good target) but you do have to be going up.
>I don't push myself often tbh
If you want to get big you need to work hard. You need to get close to the point where your muscles physically can't do any more reps if you want to grow.
Just doing sets of [X] won't make you grow automatically - your body wants to stay like it is - you have to convince it it needs to change.
If you're getting sore the day or two after you gym that's a good sign.
The only other ingredient is time. You've only been going 3 months and that really isn't long, especially if you're comparing yourself to people who have been doing this for a year or two or ten. Take things slowly and reflect on your progress. You won't see any big changes until you're a year or so in
Read starting strength. It's a book, you can read it right?
And remember to do your power cleans, and power snatches later on.
You're probably not eating enough, m or not enough iron or protein.
You could up prots tho 1g/lb, and take a pre workout (coffee with sugar would be enough) before lifting.
>Starting strength
I'll pirate it
So I have to do machines for a year and push until failure
Good advice
Thanks anons
>So I have to do machines for a year and push until failure
You don't have to do machines, freeweights are good to do while you're lifting baby weights because even if you frick up you won't hurt yourself. It's very different having a bad squat at 20kg vs 160kg and the only way you get better is deliberate practice
If you're that worried about your form reduce the weight, do it in front of a mirror and ask other people for advice.
stop being a homosexual for once
you have the wrong choice of animeme or you would make gains, daily
