Good! Ha ha! I'm proud of you! You're learning how to do it and God's going to reward you for your efforts, believe me!
Maintain your inspiration. In three months, you're going to look into the mirror and say...wow! I never noticed that before. In five or six months you're going to laugh outloud and say...wow! I really am getting muscles!
You'll notice your friends will try to copy what you're doing and will ask you for advice. They'll hang out with you in the gym and try to do every exercise you do. But aaaaah...you know the secret!
Building isn't done in the gym. It's done outside. You build muscle through recovery and nourishing your body with the right foods. Sleeping. Staying hydrated. And providing supplements that your muscles crave while growing. Lifting in the gym is only a small, tiny part of it. It's how you take care of your muscles during recovery that's really important.
Hey, BTW Cheezy - don't skip the cardio all-together. 3 times a week, 30 minutes is good to keep your ticker healthy. But you don't want to run a marathon or swim the Puget Sound while you're in muscle-gaining mode. Concentrate on lifting more than cardio, but try not to eliminate it completely from your routine. Be stingy with the nutrients in your system, save them for your muscle growth...but just keep in mind that your muscles need those nutrients to grow, too.
I'm happy for you, lil buddy!
Give God the glory, He fashioned your body perfectly, to run like a humming machine.
