-----------------------------------------------------------
First though,you will read this and and YOU WILL obey to it
1.I will google all my questions about weightlifting
2.I will make sure I have gym membership/home gym

------------------------------------------------------------
To begin with, lets first see what we are dealing with and set up a routine.
Ask your self the following questions.
Do I want to get stronger? or Do I want to put on mass(hypertrophy)?
Now the general rule is, if your stronger you will put on size BUT if you have size it does not mean you have strength.
**Those that are generally underweight/overweight with little to no knowledge about weightlifting should first gear towards strength before looking towards the mass section.**
Strength is looked upon for sports such as football,track and field,basketball,soccer(yes soccer)hockey you need strength to have power which is needed for all sports basically.
Mass/Hypertrophy is basically... larger muscles... something that bodybuilders want/need.
For those that are looking to get stronger should do these routines:
---------Strength/Sport specific Routines---------
1. Starting Strength *Beginner/Novice Routine* **HIGHLY RECOMMENDED**
A highly recommended routine for literally everyone. This routine will get you strong enough, and then you will be able to get into a bodybuilder split or even progress into a higher strength program.
The Program is very basic
-Workout A
3x5 Squat
3x5 Bench
1x5 Deadlift
2x8 Dips(optional)
-Workout B
3x5 Squat
3x5 Overhead press
5x3 Powercleans
2x8 Chinups(optional)
and you alternate... on 3 non-consecutive days...

2. Madcows/Bill starrs 5x5 *Intermediate*
This is not a beginner routine... but a very good routine nonetheless
3. Layne Nortons Power/Hypertrophy *Intermediate/Advanced*
If your a beginner dont even think about starting on this... the amount of volume is too much for a novice. but when your stronger and ready to get shredded try this out.Some people swear by it.
4. West Side For Skinny Basterds *Advanced Novice/Intermediate/Advanced*
This is a great strength routine made for those that are trying to get better at sports.
5. Strong Lifts 5x5 *Novice*
VERY similar to starting strength. But a little more volume.

DIET
The most important part of your training.... You dont eat, you dont get bigger thats basically it...
A good site to check out is http://swole.me
You should try to get 1g of protein per body weight! If you are bulking you should always be on a calorie surplus!!!!
Another thing that is thrown around alot on these forums and internet is dirty bulking and clean bulking... tbh if your a skinny ass ectomorph thats 114 lbs and standing at 5'8 you need to eat whatever the **** is in your path.... Dirty bulking/Clean bulking should only be murmured by those that lift on a regular basis.... but too clear things up heres really what dirty/clean bulking is. Dirty Bulking is eating ANYTHING in your path, Clean Bulking is basically the opposite; You eat healthy and try to stay from "junk foods" and those that have "bad" macros. If you are having the trouble of your life to gain weight/get stronger then you should try out GOMAD(http://stronglifts.com/gomad-milk-sq...n-gain-weight/). ALSO BE SURE to be getting 8-9 hours of sleep!!!!!
Supplements that you should have in your closest are:
- Whey Protein
- Creatine
- Multi-Vitamin

You are really stupid if you think strength training doesn't lead to hypertrophy. There are two kinds of hypertrophy, and there is no isolating one over the other. Second, if strength isn't muscle, show me a pic/video of a dude with 12 inch arms benching 300+ pounds. Also, learn what a dirty bulk is.
