Start with the big muscles and they add smaller ones as you regain the stabilization muscles. You probably know how it should feel, stay with that. Don't worry about the weight for now.

Glutamine is great.
GNC makes a vitamin pack that has a couple glutamine pills in it.. There are also several post workout recovery options that have it.
Iirc the GNC pack was more effective/ higher glutamine but it's pricey.
I would honestly say don't over do it.. warm up. Stretch. Take it easy till you get used to it, don't try and get into it quick.. You'll do more damage than good if you do.
glutamine and/or arginine. work out for 2-4 weeks straight and you won't feel sore anymore even when busting your ass.
Don't forget your hands and wrist. Go to iron minds.com and look at the c.o.c. Grip tools and thorns hammer. Remember a strong back is important. Squats
And yes I am a fat man. But I can close the 2.5 any day, and the 3 on a good day. Working my way up slowly loosing the weight.
Start with high rep and low weight, randomize your workouts, and gradually add weight. You want to condition your muscles before you start tearing them down. If you push it in the first 10 workouts, you will be miserable.
Take care of your joints and don't destroy them like I did.
Lift with your legs... not your back[Poke]
When ever I start up again with lifting I get sore for two weeks and then nothing till I stop again. When i say sore I mean when I do arms I have trouble washing my hair that night because I cant lift my arms.
Hydrate and eat some bananas.
Shave your head....problem solved.Quote:

You should hurt, it's workin out. I love it! My philosophy is the more you hurt, the better you did. After all, you don't grow more muscle without ripping and tearing up what you currently have
