Also yes I wouldn't mind some advice. I want to hit the weights just can't stay motivated to do so. I don't know really anything about them. Sophmore year in highschool I completely tore my rotater cuff play football. The shoulder was in horrible condition. I've had 2 surgeries since then it's been 6 years and my last surgery was a year and a half ago and I'm looking at another one. Long long story short lol. Any advice helps especially since I seem to be like you who never really lifted weights at all. Anything helps Thanks bud.
Yeah I like Shoenie (if thats how you spell it) a lot. He seems like a fun guy
My brother hated him after he watched that episode.. lol.. to each their own I guess!
Yes, I watched the other fights.. Koscheck (spell?) really shocked me.. I was very impressed by him and I think he is gonna be someone to watch now. Diego actually really surprised me too... Never thought he would beat Karo.. and the tooth thing was gross
I told my brother "I wanted to be a fighter until I seen him lose a tooth.. I cant handle losing teeth!" lol
and of course im going to see the fight this saturday
I already cannot wait. Several of my favorite guys are gonna be in it! Even Diaz is now in vs Neer.. thats gonna be a great fight!
Can you friggin believe that St. Pierre had to back down because of injury????? that drives me crazy! I was really looking forward to that.. if BJ Penn beats Hughes (again) then I still want them to match Pierre with Hughes!
As for advice.. you have to decide for yourself if you want to try to get big or just get more cut or what.. if you have shoulder problems... I dunno how you're going to do much in the way of 'bulking' up.. shoulders are a very important part of a lot of exercises and if they're already injured... ugh.... Maybe stick to light weights/high reps and see how that goes for a while. You could do lots of running! That doesnt involve shoulders
As for me I eat 7-8 times a day. Roughly every 2 hours I eat. I try to get around 30g of protein and 60g of carbs in a meal. Also take vitamins and such.. for a while I wasnt doing the carb thing and my weight wasnt really moving at all and I wasnt putting on much muscle... but once I got the carbs in my diets I started noticing things quickly... so dont skip the carbs! Dont eat crap like candy bars for carbs though... you want like fruits/veggies/whole wheat/oatmeal/etc for good carbs.
As far as motivation goes... I personally have almost no life.. so its very enjoyable for me to lift because it actually gives me something to do
Just think of all the women that are gonna throw themselves at you when you're all muscular???
haha Just make yourself do it.. its more fun than you'd think!
