    3 Day Beginner Muscle Building Workout Notes
    This muscle building workout is for rank beginners who wish to add muscle mass and also add strength. The first several weeks will be a break-in period, during which time you will practice exercise form using lighter weight.

    After the 2 to 4 week break-in period, you will start to push yourself. Make it a goal to try for more reps on every set of every workout. This is called progression of weight. When you can perform the top number of reps listed for an exercise set, add weight the next time you perform this exercise.

    The fastest way to gain muscle and strength is by:

    Never waste a set. Always push yourself for more reps and more weight.
    Eat big! To gain muscle mass you must eat more then it takes to maintain your weight.
    Failure to adhere to either of the 2 points listed above will result in a limiting of progress.

    Monday Workout
    Squats – 3 sets x 10 reps
    Bench Press – 3 sets x 10 reps
    Barbell Rows – 3 sets x 10 reps
    Standing Dumbbell Curls – 3 sets x 10 reps
    Sit Ups – 3 Sets x 15 reps
    Wednesday Workout
    Romanian Deadlifts – 3 sets x 10 reps
    Seated Overhead Barbell Press – 3 sets x 10 reps
    Dumbbell Shrugs – 3 sets x 10 reps
    Seated or Standing Calf Raises – 3 x 10 reps
    Hanging Leg Raises – 3 sets x 15 reps
    Friday Workout
    Squats – 3 Sets x 10 reps
    Close Grip Bench Press – 3 sets x 10 reps
    Pull Ups or Lat Pull Downs – 3 sets x 10 reps

    Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.

    3 months is plenty of time to lose lots of weight, get in really good shape, and stay there IF YOU REALLY WANT it. I didnt have any client who didnt lose weight in that time. Even bodybuilders whos competing do 8 to 12 weeks diets. I was one of them. And at this point i am on the diet and in the past few months i dropped to the point where my abbs are up .

    But i do agree that sticking with diets and training is the way to do and only way to go. A lot of people do get on the diet, loose shit load of weight, but the in the end its up to them how they going to act after words. And the sad part is, i would say 85% of people going back to the oldselfs and have no idea how to get back to where they want to be.

    I cant understand that part, but again this is how the cookie crumble
