Day 2- Learning

So here I am on Day 2 of my "Hard Gainers Workout" challenge. I've been reading through the course materials of "No-Nonsense Muscle Building". That book and its supplements are going to be my core guide throughout the challenge, and if you haven't gotten your own copy yet, you can at http://hardgainersworkout.uni.cc

Moving on....

One concept that sounds new to me is "High Weight, High Reps", pretty much meaning pushing yourself TO THE MAX. Putting a lot of stress on your muscles. I don't know if I'm up for that sort of thing. I mean, I'm a giant wimp, and can't lift much as it is. High weight, high reps, would be like 4-5 reps with 30-35 pounds. Depending on what sort of exercise I'm doing.

Very, very wimpy.

Another more appealing concept is that of full recovery. My workouts may be a little spaced out here at first as I allow my muscles "full recovery" time. Plus, using Upside Down Training I'll ease into the actual workout program, so maybe I won't be so wimpy by then.

I'm also going to start eating as much as I can, and not just junk. I'm looking at protein bars/supplements, taking my vitamins, and getting more protein, wheat, and vegetables in my diet. I don't think I'll follow any of the meal plans included with the program, but that's just me.

So what are your thoughts? If you're following along with me, feel free to post them on my Posterous, Blogger, or Twitter. If you're not, then grab a copy of No-Nonsense Muscle Building from http://hardgainersworkout.uni.cc and then jump right in!

Best of luck!

Day 1- On My Way to the Start

DAY 1

 

So where am I right now? I've read that to get to point B, you have to know point A first, so that's where I'm starting off at. I weigh 130 pounds. I'm 19. I'm 6 foot tall.

 

...and I'm really freakin' skinny.

 

….and I've got almost no muscles.

 

 

So I created this hard gainers workout journal online, here, at this blog, the Skinny Guy Workout Plan. That's what it is. My Skinny Guy Workout Plan. Welcome to the blog. I hope you'll follow me along my journey, maybe do some of the same things that I am, and participate in the community (e.g, comment!) Hopefully what I do will be helpful to others too.

 

I bought an amazing workout course geared straight at skinny guys/hard gainers. It has a book, workout plans, a preparation plan, meal plans, videos, etc. Just about everything ever. If you're interested, you could and should get your own copy at the Hard Gainers Workout site. I've been reading the book, and have to say, if I actually follow through with these plans, I think I could make some amazing progress and accomplish my goals. So stick around with me and motivate me :D !!!

 

So I'll be reading the book and supporting materials for the first couple of days, and then I'll start the workouts, probably with the Upside Down Training included with the Hard Gainers Workout product. It's like a preliminary thing.

 

Best of luck to anybody accompanying me. Keep in touch!
