Ok i am starting this week and because i have mental health problems i get alot of money off the gym.I am 10 stone 6'0 and i've managed to tone up around my chest area and my slight double chin has gone just by changing what i ate abit.So for someone who's not been to a gym before what do you suggest? i don't have alot of toned muscle that's the problem.
>10 stonewtf is a stone.>toned musclewtf are toned muscles.
Well what do you want to achieve? Muscle mass, fat loss, power/strength or endurance?
>>1999201st = 14lbtoned muscles = wat?
>>19992010 stone = 140 pounds, go back to fucking school.
I don't need to lose weight i just need to gain a little bit of muscle, but i guess i would have to eat some more.
>>199920Are you kidding?
We really need a sticky for this forum, i really cant be arsed to type out all the stuff you need to understand about building muscle.Sorry, try googling or go to somewhere like bodybulding.com they must have forums there.
>>199919seriously, you need to gain 2 stone. you are underweight.
>>199939So this board is totally useless then, gg.
>>199925Why would I want to learn about an archaic measuring system?Also, holy fuck OP, you are skinny and weak as hell.
>>199944I gain fat on my chest area faster than my arms, so my arms could be super skinny even if i had a fat gutt.
>>199951I don't look that skinny just my arms.
>>199955No you don't understand. 140lbs at 6' 0" means you are weak as hell.
>>199948No, its not. The problem begins when people come here before doing ANY research for themselves and simply ask "how do i get in shape" - i mean thats an easay in itself, do some research first, then come back with specific questions.
Pretty normal BMI
>>199925What the hell are pounds?(Seriously, I can't understand all the rage about stone being archaic when everyone here still uses a system that 99% of the world has abandoned long ago)
>>199974Pounds are what americans use to mesure weight and stone is i think european or just english.
>>1999741lb=2.2kgso 140lb ~ 65kg
usa=kg and grams uk=pounds and stone
>>199990YOU'RE ALL FUCKING RETARDS.14LBS (pounds) = 1 STONE = Imperial measurement - USA. OLD.Kilograms = Metric measurement - Europe/rest of world. NEW.
>>200294there's not even a single american who knows what stone islbs strait = americanstone = weird brits who for some reason dont use kiloskilos = rest of the world
>>199990USA = Pounds/milesCanada/rest of world = kilograms/kilometers
