How long till I see gains brehs?

[MikelArteta]

I'm a weak frail ass nukka, bout to start working out. Actually a breh from here connected with me as he's a personal trainer and i had my first session (no homo) about to do it like 2-3 times a week.

When should I see some progress?

couple months

Never if u dont get ur diet right too. Get your protein up (~150-200g a day) and your calorie surplus up (ideally should be putting on ~0.5-1lb a week while making strength gains)

Dont forget to do legs either

Welcome to the dark side nikka :scumbag:

stop eating pork, dairy, sugar, processed breads if you want to see the best gains with your workout. If you're not eating right you won't look right. Bodyweight exercises work best.

You won't notice it for awhile to be honest, you'll look in the mirror 6 months from now and wonder if it's worth it, but then you'll see somebody you haven't seen in a while and they'll be like "You been workin out? "

The best way for you to see gains is taking pictures now and comparing them months from now, the change for you is slow and subtle, but to others who don't see you often it'll be apparent within a 4-5 months.

I mean, you'll see gains, but to really pour them on you need to eat a calorie surplus and take in a lot of protein.

Cant emphasise this enough bruv,

OP you need to really EAT like its going out of fashion.

3 X a week is a decent frequency but just try and ensure this PT brederin of yours ain't taking you for a twat, making you do stupid meaningless shyte whilst he milks your wallet.

Jump on a PROVEN strength training regime (ask your PT about - SL, 5X5, Madcow, Wendlers, WSFSB) to develop functional strength/CNS & a solid foundation.

Seeing as you're at the Noob phase, them gains will come rapidly first 6-12 months. You should start filling out nicely if you eating and lifting right.

Goodluck & yea what @GinaThatAintNoDamnPuppy! said welcome to the dark side......The IRON obsession is REAL....better that addiction than cultivating a trendy drug habit

some body types never see gains


that's just the way it is


look at Daniel Cormier for example


He's in better shape than all of us but still looks like he sits on the couch and plays video games all day

As far as food/dieting goes - Shoot me your current height & weight (estimate the body fat% too) & I'll knock you up a rought draft of how many Kcals you should be ingesting & the macro composition you should adhere to.

Get some bags of fruit from SAMs Club to make a smoothie and get some whey protein. Drinking a smoothie and drinking a protein shake every day is a great and easy way to keep a clean diet with little micromanagement worries.
