Separate your workouts. You don’t need to spend 3 hours in the gyn everyday. Be quick and efficient. Separate your bodyparts to different days or do the push/pull/legs.

Sidenote: add squats and deadlifts because they boost your testosterone levels.

Get rid of video games. Read philosophy and economics.

Approach. Do not be a pussyboi. Do

Oh look no squat or deadlift numbers. Mystery solved. Also this goes in askTRP

Repost in AskTRP, personal questions don't belong on the main sub.

I've been working out since I was 16, I'm 24 now and I've definitely come a long way but it just takes time. Don't try to rush it or you might hurt yourself.

Its been THREE WEEKS. Chill out. You're not going to see any crazy change that quickly. Some, but nothing insane.

What are your goals? Build muscle or strength?

Creatine is great but protein should have been your first supplement regardless of your diet. If you want to "bulk", here are my recommendations.

Exercise

Start splitting your workouts into push/pull/legs. Don't forget to incorporate abs. The split is important, I promise. With a full body workout, you're either tired and thus have less strength to max effort other lifts/exercises, or you subconsciously don't push your workouts as hard as they could be because you have so much more to do. Start with three days a week, build to six. Rest day is cheat day, though I recommend only having one cheat meal if you're going to stuff yourself to the brim. Personally, on my rest day at dinner I eat whatever the hell I want and drink as much as I damn well please. The cheat meal/day is actually important for your metabolism, basically keeps it on its toes.

Do the same length workout, but focusing on the groups. There are a lot more muscles in your body than you think and some exercises neglect some muscles, which will lead to weakness and injury. Create a workout with the same amount of complexity you listed above, but with the split.

For example, on push day you have more than just flat bench and flies for chest; there's incline, decline, flat, and flies. Incorporating all of these is going to give you the best looking pecs you can get, hindered or helped only by your genes. And that is a single muscle. Your biceps actually have 3 separate muscles. And something as simple as a different grip will change what parts of the bicep are being worked.

Supplements

There are so many supplements you can use. Try different ones. The biggest one IMO is protein. Get a good brand. I personally prefer lean protein that hits all of the major amino acids and several minors. There's also bulking protein and meal replacement protein powders. Then there's BCAAs. They're complex proteins with a different purpose. Creatine helps especially if you're lifting 6 times a week. Personally I don't like pre-workout, I don't think it helps me lift more just kind of makes me not feel the burn during the workout. Test boosters absolutely work, but research and get a proper cycle; you don't want bitchtitties. However, at your age you have no need for any testosterone increasing supplement. You are young, your test should be pumping fine, but you can do things to naturally help increase it(cold showers etc.) Thermogenics worked for friends of mine but I've never personally used them.

Supplement timing is also important. You only take pre-workout before you start lifting, right? Protein is the same. I take BCAAs during the workout, and drink a protein shake after the workout and before bed. I also only workout fasted(empty stomach) so meals play a role in supplement timing as well. Creatine supplementing just increases the amount you have in your body, so you take it on a schedule, same as test boosters and estrogen blockers.

Hope all this helps, put a bit of time into it. Good luck and may the gains be with you

If you're trying to increase strength I recommend changing your wait time between sets to somewhere around 2 or 3 minutes and reducing the number of reps while slightly increasing weight.

GodOfDinosaurs · 2019-08-03T00:23:22+00:00

Put this in askTRP. Also, you are doing way too many movements per workout. Cut it down to like 3 compounds plus a couple isolation movements and lift 3x per week alternating movements.

Damn you were born after the towers fell...

Aethetico · 2019-08-03T01:11:04+00:00

Focus on compound movements, progressive overload and eat in a calorie surplus.

MarcosDomingues · 2019-08-03T01:35:01+00:00

routine is shit, follow SS instead

Rifleshoot · 2019-08-03T01:33:06+00:00

If at all possible, you should change to doing compound lifts with a bar instead of machine lifts. If not possible, just keep upping your weight with what you are doing. Focus on these lifts: bench press, military press, squats, deadlifts, upright row, chin-ups, and dips. Make those the core of your workout and progressively increase the amount as you go. At least, that’s what I’m doing. (I’m still fairly new myself)
