It’s always best to start with the smallest lifts possible (e.g. bar only) in order to master the form

Some exercises like deadlift have 135lb minimum weight since the bar has to rest high enough off the floor

Tbh I've never lifted in a gym

I exercise at work. I don't really have the time or access to a gym.

@everyone this should be the Avatar for this chat.

How small are you @StrawberryArmada

@Ben - OH , you can get 25# or even 10# bumper place that are the same diameter as the 45s. Not at your local globogym though.

I am 6'5" and weigh about 160lb

Holy shit

I'm 5' 11" and 160

Y’all and skinny

lmao

Tall

Wow.

I used to have an ED

Jesus

Nigga u a javalin

That's why I don't weight a ton

GOMAD but unironically

I've gained about 30 pounds in the last year and a half or so

You should probably pack on the pounds before you start to lift

130lb and 6'5"

Wait, you were even thinner?

shieeeeet

damn

Lifting will help stimulate his appetite and put on the right kind of weight though

The reason i ask is I'm naturally a small guy. In my late teens early 20's I went from 6 foot 130 to 6 foot 175 with dbol and working out. But then I quit and went back down to like 140 and stayed there till I was 30 and now at 32 I've gotten back to 178 by eating right and working out. The main thing is consuming more calories than you burn.

I'd recommend a fat and protein diet

@StrawberryArmada you can put on weight and muscle mass pretty quickly if you're already smaller/underweight

just eat way more

eat all the time

Steak and eggs sauteed in lots of butter

as much as you can

and lift all the time

I try to eat 2800 calories a day

Nah bro, this guy needs high everything

and take a fiber supplement as well so that the extra food intake doesnt fuck with youre GI too much

Not just fat and protein

You must have an insane metabolism
