Help: Weight Lifting Gurus

[SQL Tracker]

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.

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.

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.

Like others have mentioned lift/eat/rest/water. Not much you can do about DOMS for the first few weeks.

Same with me. I can't hardly squat to drop a deuce, and my arms feel like I can't reach the top of my head. Super soreness for about two weeks, and then I'm gtg.

You have not lived till you do legs in a gym that is on the second floor.
