Fat boy who needs help

[dereimer500]

This was an old picture but that's pretty much the size I am now, Im not looking to get into bodybuilding. All I want to do is have a huge chest and big arms with a lot of strength. I'm 18 currently 5'11 and 220 if I had to estimate bf I'd say 23-28. No access to the gym currently don't have funds, What should be my first step of action ?

Edit- I've added current pictures, please excuse my ****ty shape and man tits.

It's difficult to say because judging from your stats i would advise you to do a slow cut, but from that pic you just look skinnyfat, and i would have you get on a slow bulk

new pic would help

Lol skinny fat, that's the nicest way anybody's ever called me fat before. I'll upload new pic right now gonna go to bathroom.

Skinny fat is more of an insult than fat. It's implying tht you have little muscle mass as well as being a fat f**ker

Mmmm not exactly. Someone who sits on their arse all day and stuffs his face with kfc and doritos all day isn't going to have a lot of muscle mass, but will still get fat AF, to the point where you couldn't call them skinnyfat.

someone who was 6' 300lbs 50% would have very little muscle mass but would you call them skinnyfat? no, you would just call them a fat f*ker.

skinny fat where? you're almost obese. more than 35% of fat. why don't you wanna go into bodybuilding? you're 18 and you can change your life dramatically within 2 years and enjoy it for many years to come.

what you have to do: calculate your tdee and eat on a caloric deficit (you eat less calories than the ones you burn), this is the only way to lose weight. but your goal is not to lose weight but to lose fat, hence in the meanwhile you want to build muscle in order to compensate.

do two things:

1) go on youtube and search "scooby1961" and watch his entire channel, he'll teach you everything about nutrition and training. he also has a fantastic website with a calculator that estimates how many calories you should eat, here: http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/


2) read the thread of wetbrest for a huge motivation, plus that thread contains all the suggestions to lose weight: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...ight=wetbreast


you can lose all that fat in a year and then you can start to sculpt your body.

slow bulk with ~300 surplus

what does this mean exactly ?

[RubberJonny]

what does this mean exactly ?

Eat 300 calories more than your daily maintenance intake, so you need to find out your maintenance, for example 2500, then eat 300 calories more a daily. To be honest, I think you need to lose weight

[AesZeus]

Use an app to help you calculate, myfitnesspal seem to be most accurate

I'm getting mixed answers here, some say lose weight some say bulk, Could someone give me a definite answer along with the steps I should take ?

My Goals are simple, I want a big chest and big arms with strength. I could careless about everything else.. Why? I don't know why I've set goals for myself and those are the goals I'd like to meet. Will I ever get into bodybuilding and implement a full body workout ? Sure but I'd to meet my goals beforehand.

If you just want to be big and strong, DO NOT CUT. Why would you cut, people cut to lose fat and show striations.

Just slow bulk indefinitely while lifting heavy, preferably according to a strength routine

are you saying that you want to maintain all that fat? you want to maintain those love handles?

No I want abs with a big chest and big arms and to have a good amount of strength.

[Ironface]

Either get access or buy an olympic weight set with 20kg barbell, bench and power rack.

No I want abs with a big chest and big arms and to have a good amount of strength.

So now you're adding abs to the mix? That means you want to be big, strong AND lean. If that's the case, slow cut until you get to ~10% then bulk from there

Okay I'll start changing my diet around incorporating more proteinl

if you want abs you can forget about huge arms and chest for now. firstly cut, which means to eat less calories than you burn, to lose weight. you should add some cardio training too. train your muscles as well (you find everything in scooby's channel) but for a good year you have to focus only on removing all that fat.

I recommend cutting, the best way to do this is keep a note of everything you eat and make sure it's about 200-500 calories below your TDEE (Total daily energy expenditure) each day, a brilliant tool for keeping your macros under control is MyFitnessPal. Good Luck!

If I incorporate heavy jogging how long would it take for me to get to a good desired point.
