Tryin to get big..just started lifting. Any advice?

[1000101 10+ year member]

You are right.I know nothing at all about working out and/or hunting.

Yet I attained a bench press of 365lbs at the age of 19yrs and 196lb bodyweight. Squatting around 440 at that time. No idea on the deadlift.

I have killed so many deer I can't even count them. Yet, I never talk trash about hunting or how good I am. I let my mounts/horns speak for themselves. Oh, did I mention that 75% of my hunting is done on public land? As far as turkey? I missed my grand slam this past Spring in Florida. Started when I was 15, and currently have 17 birds to my name in 3 states. 17 birds in 5 seasons..Not bad if you ask me. I don't fool with pesky rabbits and squirrels //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Oh yeah. And people could dunk all over me in basketball. I am 5'7" and absolutely hate that sport. lawlz.

1000101 is being very hypocritical.

i think if you weeded through the typical bull shi t answers here youd get SOME useful information but definitely hit up like bodybuilding.com forums or something, read all the stickies etc.

Well I just got back. I ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich before I left, and just had one when I got home. I did squats and deadlifts for the first time today. I tried to do 5 sets of 5 reps like you said Deerhunt with my max weight.

Well how did it go? Did you get the 5x5?

If by "get" you mean understand, then I think I do. I did arms today. So the exercises I did I did 5 sets of each one, with 5 reps, with a lot of weight. Then next week I need to step it up 5 pounds, correct? And do I need to eat before AND after working out?

I'm sure this thread is WAY off topic as per standard ca.com rules, but did you talk to Platestacker about it yet?

Just do the 5x5 on your 3 major compound movements...Bench,squat, deadlift...On the other lifts I'd stay in the 10-8 rep range. However, I have saw numerous times where people have had good results with standing barbel curls doing 5x5.
