I've worked in a gym many years,we always gave members an orientation on machines,which is more important than freeweights for new guys.Let an attendant/trainer show you round and get you started.

My gut feeling is that you are overthinking it.It's not rocket science.I would get you started with machines,a good learning tool before alot of freeweights,which you can advance to later.Don't worry...

I worked in a gym for many years,some trainers are good,some couldn't train a dog.Best bet is to seek out a local Y and discuss the wants & needs.It'll cost a little but you can cancel any time.

I am impressed with anyone who goes in the gym and works their butt off.I see so many on phones,texting,chatting,reading books on machines or just laying across them...and they expect a built body...

No as a teen I would not advise it,but if you are going to end up doing it anyway,please wear a weight belt,and a spotter you trust for benching...

I have the same problem,got myself some lifting gloves,now all is well.Chalk is frowned upon nowadays,some gyms won't allow it.Go to a local discount retailer and get a set of gloves.

My first questions to a new client are: What are your goals,and what does your doctor say-then go on from there.

The fact you're on here telling this seems that you have doubts...

I'm a trainer in a gym.My throughts for a 16 year old guy is to start on the machines,rather than free weights,you'll learn good form and it's a great [and safe] way to start.Believe me,the younger...

Classic Bodybuilding is the future.The general public frowns on mass monsters,it's had it's time.I think there's somewhat a change in the politics of bodybuilding. [Somewhat].Having said that i'm...

I have given throught to doing a show,but the expense! You don't win a trophy,you've PAID for it !!

Peanut butter Pie or Cheesecake here too !

First,ask yourself what is getting you so upset in the gym.Some people I work with [I work in a gym] believe everyone is looking at them.Nothing could be further from the truth,people are so self...

I can only speak from experience,but I had an 18 year layoff,and when I got back into working out,it came back ALOT faster,even more so,the second time around.Muscle memory is REAL.

Chocolate for me,please !!!! This will be great for lunchtime!

I think politics play a HUGE part in who wins these contests.I recall Chares Glass was selected as a judge and told who to place high,he rejected it and never judged again-I don't blame him.I for one...

First off,you're still young,I wouldn't sweat it.However great gunz can be had doing Preacher curls & Scott curls.And eat,really eat to feed those muscles.

When I am injured,I workout the parts that are not affected.Last year my lower back went,so I did arms/chest/delts,etc. And when you do get back to using the pained area: USE LIGHT WEIGHTS on it.That...

Since I got into bodybuilding a lot has changed,peoples perceptions alter and some out there don't like change,in you,in themselves,or things around them.On the bright side I get very favorable...

Everyone I know trains all aspects of pecs the same day.
