Hey there everyone, i've been browsing these boards on and off for quite some time now.
I came across this website in my search for a routine with a decent theory behind it for the speediest way to gain muscle and muscle definition.
After spending hours on end, browsing the various informative posts i'd be psyched to go workout. Which i would for about a week before i'd lose motivation.
But now i want to get serious about working out.
I want to get a solid routine going so as to not get sidetracked.
My main concerns/questions are;
Diet
What sort of diet should i be following?
As in what types of foods should i be eating.
When i should eat them etc.
This includes supplements of any sort.
Timing
When would be the best time to workout?
I know it's different for each individual, so how would i go about finding this out?
How much sleep should i be getting?
The workout itself
How do i go about finding my Rep Maximums?
How do i choose which exercises i should do for each body part? I don't have any injuries that would rule out any type of exercise as far as i know.
Where
I have a bench at home along with a few other weight related stuff which i have been using. I'm thinking this amount of equipment isn't enough for a full body workout. So should i be going to a gym instead?
is ther a difference between the more expensive gyms and the cheaper ones?
Misc
Should i invest in a personal trainer?
Some info about myself
Note: I'm from Australia heh so we use metrics.
Turning 20 this year.
172cm (5ft 7"?)
70kg (140 pounds?)
I hope i get get some informative feedback so i can get started ASAP.
Thanks in advance, Hung.
