    Weiss, you remember the glory days of this forum? Back then a reply would've been to give OP some advice on how to train. Ironwill or someone would've helped OP by giving them

    https://forum.bodybuilding.com/showt...2916931&page=1

    Then talked about nutrition and shedding the tummy is
    down to consuming less calories than the body needs to maintain the tummy (eating less) and while exercise is fantastic! Diet is the key to losing or gaining weight

    what trips me is that people come here and start new thread right away. As if there are no thousands of new gym-goers, with same (identical really) questions. We can't have enough Ironwills

    And literally none of them want to be "bodybuilder big", as if it is at arm's reach, give it half-arse try and grow into monster.

    Eh, pretty sure most are the same posters who come on with new accounts every time they're in the first few days of the on cycle of their "on and off in the gym for years" routine. And ask the same questions. And get the same answers. And then stop going to the gym. Rinse, repeat.

    Not looking to be huge, just to gain some muscle, lose some fat and be fit. Only interested in aesthetics, not strength...

    Do what Madonna does, Walk as far as you can every day, stop eating anything with cheese in it and have a high colonic every season change.

    Coming down on someone for aaking a question. To better themselves is ridiculous dude

    Pay him no mind OP. Keep asking questions. You will never get answers if you dont.
