    Angry SERIOUS HELP. Self thought versus Personal training.

    I spent a year working out. Nothing is working. I feel confused and don't know where to start. I feel like I have to go back from square one from diet and workout. Im not doing well. Should I just pay a personal trainer for $400 just to train me. Where do I even begin? There are a lot of information where I followed everything but Im having difficulty because its not consistent.
    Did you guys work out with out any help from others? I read stuff online then follow a different routine. I just need one easy to follow program.

    Lifting really isn't rocket science. If you're not dedicated/ serious enough to learn stuff yourself, just get on a proven program. The important thing is consistency and putting in the hard work

    I just started my first program after 5 years of training so I really couldn't tell you.

    I would Google or search on this site starting strength type program. Run that for a year or so and go from three
