Just got a gym membership.

[Ford302Redneck 10+ year member]

Well, my step dad is on the fire department, and a gym is letting the FD families get memberships.

So, now I'm going to start working out during the week and such. But I'm a serious n00b at this.

I took weight lifting in high school but it didn't teach me much.

Basically, I'm 5'11. 130lbs. Skinny I know.

I wanna get up around 175ish toned.

Any pointers or good reads where I can learn more about this stuff.

Just make sure you get on a somewhat decent diet. Take in at leat 1 gram of protein for every pound you weigh. So in your case take in at least 130 grams of protein. Thats your building block for your muscle fibers to grow. If you want to really bulk up take in 2 grams for every pound. Take in plenty of carbs. They will provide your body with hypoglycemics that will give you energy and help carry the protein you are taking in. When lifting make sure you keep good form and dont worry about how much everybody else is lifting. If you try to overdue your limit and use bad form you wont see great results. Train one muscle group a day. Ex: Monday-biceps and triceps. Tuesday-Chest. Wednesday-Legs. Thursday-Shoulders and Traps. Friday-Back and Lats. Give yourself at least one day to let your muscles rest. Resting is when you will build the most. If you need anything else let me know. I do this for a career. Lol

I figured If I wasn't gonna eat right, I didn't need to work out.

So, Im going to start it also.

Just gotta figure it out exactly.
