@Warren H I would say isolation is great for building muscle, have days where you work certain groups
You want to do as many reps as you can without hurting yourself, a good way to do that is by doing a good amount of weight for 3 sets of 8-10 then working your way down a few steps of 5-10 lbs each time, reps are important for endurance.
For high protein foods meat is always a solid choice, when I was starting out getting into my diet it was basically meat, veggies, and protein shakes, portioning your meals is also a good idea to keep you on track with calories/nutriebts
Also when your muscles get sore, meat will help, extra protein will help your muscles heal from all the little tears you get from lifting and you will build mass faster
@StevePines -WA thanks man. Did you mean 5-10lbs or 5-10 reps? My current lifting schedule I'm trying to stick to is 4 days a week, M-TR and then rest F/S/S to let myself recover.
Yeah definitely trying to eat more meat, eggs, veggies and so on. So long as they're not processed foods lol. Do you know a good way to count calories from homemade food? My folks cook something it can be hard to count exactly how much is in what
5-10 lbs, so like I normally start with 35lb bicep curls with dumbbells then when I get tired move to30, then 25 etc. @Warren H
Called moving down the rack
@Warren H Best I'd say is just read the labels to at least get an idea of what you're getting
There's also plenty of apps and such to calculate calories/macros
Well gents, today was my first workout post-surgery. It's been a long 6 weeks (almost 7 actually) and I definitely lost muscle mass. Starting from square one again.

Man planet fitness is NPC central. Just a bunch of different people who don't know each other. Zero sense of community. Might as well be in the gym with a bunch of robots
Yeah but nobody at planet fitness is serious about fitness
Free pizza
