You started this at the perfect time Zim. I just signed up for the gym today.
Started off with a mile on the treadmill, then did some arms... tomorrow if I get back from CT in time I'll work on my legs.
You should be doing at least 2 muscle groups a day. As you've just started off, you should be doing 3 a day and doing 1 or 2 exercises per muscle group. None of this "arms" and "chest" days, it wont work.
No wonder my brother won't get any bigger. Although he loves to think he knows more than a personal trainer.
I hate to ask, but would you be able to work out a schedule for me? I want to try to go atleast 4-5 times a week.
You're just starting off, "trying to go" isn't the objective here... it's building up and getting big. You should never go 4-5 times a week. Unless 2 of those times are for cardio only.
You should only be doing 3 workouts a week, and none back-to-back - Until you're advanced (6+ months) to do a back to back exercise and increase to 4 times a week. Even the best guys don't go 4-5 times a week. It tires out your muscles and doesn't give them time to rest and grow.
I will work one out for you when I'm not exhausted.
