[QUOTE=Zeke129;17937398]Find a gym that lets you pay month-to-month, just in case you decide that you dislike the gym or no longer want to go. Don't sign a contract.[/QUOTE]
First try one day and then a month, luckily 2 gyms in my town use the same membership, so i can go to either(ones much better then the other but further)
[QUOTE=hillo3;17937415]One of my friends gained like 15kg after he started going to gym. Muscle weights more than fat[/QUOTE]
But there's a good chance he'll lose fat and slim down a bit, even if the scale says he weighs more. Numbers don't mean much.
No matter how much it hurts, or how hard it gets, don't ever give up.
Get a friend to go work out with you so you don't feel awkward working out. I recently joined my local gym over the summer. I'm now somewhat of a bodybuilder after lifting weights for 6 months.
There really isn't anything better than having sore biceps and triceps after a hour or two of hard weight lifting.
I'm really glad my parents only buy healthy food!
I've heard soda is a major contributor to weight gain and such, is that true?
If you are trying to lose weight and still get jacked I would only do low intensity cardiovascular (walking, light jogging) as warm up for 10-15 minutes.
Bulking up with muscles increases your metabolism as you have more muscles to burn calories for. This method of growing muscle to lose weight is slower but more long lasting than solely doing cardio.
Besides if you do cardio you become a skinny bitch.
[QUOTE=LazyBoy;17937486]I'm really glad my parents only buy healthy food![/QUOTE]
Good luck being able to afford to live that way when you move out.
I was planning on joining my parent's gym. They go to one, I was going to ask to join.
Start a routine. STICK with it. Do something like...
Monday- Chest Triceps
Tuesday- Back Biceps Shoulders
Wednesday-Legs
Thursday- upper body max (Forearms, biceps, triceps, shoulders, chest
Friday- Rest
P.S Don't be intimidated by the really jacked up guys, toss out your ego when you go into the gym. Suck it up and use the 20 lb barbells because you've got to start somewhere.

I would
but in the end, I would probably forget to go and would be wasting money. :<
Plus I'd rather not go to a gym by myself. I'd probably get followed out by some guy sooner or later. <<;;
I'd do it if my boyfriend went with me. :v:

He wants to lose weight not gain muscle.
[QUOTE=Giner;17937751]He wants to lose weight not gain muscle.[/QUOTE]
Well you can lose weight by gaining muscle. If you don't want to be jacked at all just do cardio.
I'd reccomend going on a cut. Find out your maintenance calorie level, and subract about 200 from it. If your still not losing weight subtract more. Since your cutting I'd do cardio 3-4 times a week, and intense cardio. You could also lift at the same time but your gains won't be as good.
Here's a ok split for you
Mon-Running-Chest and Triceps and Deltoids
Tuesday-Cardio-No lifting
Wednseday-Back, Biceps, Forearms, Traps-no cardio
Thursday-Cardio-No lifting
Friday-Cardio- Legs, core
Sat- Light Cardio/No Cardio
Sun-Rest
Also bodybuilding.com has a lot of great transformations in their forums. Look for exercise tips and shit there.
5'11 205 and gaining right here. Wrestling season is starting soon.
The first 3 weeks are the hardest because you just don't feel like running but you have to!!! Don't give up! and if you need help join your schools cross country team, you'll slim up
[QUOTE=EpikEnvy2.0;17937094]That's right.
I am a pathetic slab of hambeast and it is my goal to lose weight. I'm tired of being slow, and general lazy.
I'm 15, 5'11, and I'm pretty big. Holy shit, right? It's my goal to lose enough weight to where everything is in correct proportion to my height. I'm going to start [b]running for 10-15 a day[/b] around the park, doing sit ups, lifting weights, using exercise bikes, everything. I started earlier, doing 30-40 sit ups and lifting three pound weights (Start of small, eh?) I'm going to refrain from anything unhealthy, drinks included, and focus on healthy alternatives, such as fruit and vegetables. I'm doing this for myself, my social life, everything. Seeing all these scrawny facepunchers makes me jealous. Why should I be the odd man out in life? I'm not going to be, after this.
That is all.[/QUOTE]

Muscle weighs more than fat, and if he just gained muscle he wouldn't lose the fat underneath, you don't want to go straight into weight training, but basically cardio work til he's slimmed down.

[QUOTE=Atwal;17937369]Sure, we could switch and i could burn the fat off your body with my high ass metabolism and then trade back :)[/QUOTE]
And I'll let my shitty ass metabolism take over as I gain 20 pounds per liter of water.
