I wish I had stumbled upon this thread with the different beginner article links all in one place a few months back when I first started to get serious about training. It's very helpful and informative. |

Good articles. I'd recommend these over Rippetoe's book and workout in many cases. |

OMG The Best thing you can do for a Beginner is teach them how to create a basic workout routine for them selves! I had the most troubles figuring that part out. I thought my friend the personal trainer new what he was talking about and I figure something was wrong so I took 3 days of reading on this site and finally found what I was looking for.
There it is Read it ALL!

awesome articles!! nutrition for newbies is really good too.
Couldn't agree more - found this site by accident last August, lurked around a bit and found Nutrition for Newbies, applied the principles contained therein; six months later, I'm down 30-plus lbs BF! Go Thibs! |

Here is a question: I want to get in shape and look great physically, but currently I am unemployed and have no money, so going to the gym is out of the questions. How do I remedy this problem and do what needs to be done? |

Hi TC
My name is Kobus,
I have recently joint a Biogenetics gym because of a problem in my back that is at times extremely painful, but since I have joint this gym things have been going better. But I need to lose tummy baby fat.
I go to the gym 3 times per week my program is designed to strengthen not to build. I have split my program so that I can spent more time on quality exercises I am trying to go every day but find my self only frustrated because of fatigue and pain. Because of this medical problem I am only allowed to do certain exercises.
For my tummy I use the abs sculptor doing 30 crunches one leg straight two sets each, and Mackenzie crunches and Romans chair.
Is there any other advice on diets and supplements?
Thanks
