Exercise Sleeper
I would like to start bodybuilding, how do I begin?
I am 21 and need to build up my upper body strength, but figured I might as well go all-out whilst I’m at it. The thing is I can’t afford gym fees so anything I do will have to be in my ‘poor man’ gym- one I’ve built myself out of railway sleepers, girders, oil drums and poles.
How does one start bodybuilding, naturally as opposed to with chemicals? I’d like to aspire to the look of Charles Atlas, the old-timers, as opposed to modern Arnie-types! I just want to be very healthy but to have a built body with it.
Where do I begin, to I have to forfeit Aerobic Exercise entirely?
Thanks
I think you need to spend about half an hour arranging a schedule that you can adhere to. Start small and build it up. It has to be difficult or it isn’t going anywhere so when it gets easy, that means you have developed and need to increase weights
Start by testing your limits, what weight you can comfortably lift. I’m talking about 3 sets of 8 repetitions at a time. Work different muscle groups on alternating days.
Stretching and aerobic exercise are essential other wise you will be strong but stiff and chubby. Stretch all of your muscles before you start (yoga style is good.) Then warm up with 20 minutes of aerobic exercise, whatever style you prefer. Then start the weightlifting. When you are done with the weights, spend 5 minutes of gentle aerobic work again to cool down and have a glass of milk. The milk will help to develop your muscle mass.
Always have someone around in case you injure yourself. Within shouting distance at least or keep a cell phone in your pocket.
