Yeah, I don't buy Protein Powder solely because it's so expensive. My gym membership is like 40 euros. On top of that I'd have to invest 30/40 euro monthly just on protein powder. That's too much for a student like me.

To bulk up, you need to eat an access of calories than normal. This website is a great tool in finding how many calories you currently eat, and how many you should eat to gain weight.

Low reps with high weight provide bulk. High reps with low weight provides muscle toning.

I also, like you, waited before going to the gym. I spent a month of doing high intensity interval training (HIIT), other kinds of cardio, and body weight exercises at a local park before I started lifting. Very generic bodyweight exercises too - such as pull-ups, chin-ups, toes to bar, pushups on p-bars, crunches, step ups, ect.

Sorry for the late reply but thanks so much!!

Need to get off my ass and go to the gym. Back and chest day today.

Everyone's been saying how much weight I've gained and how much bigger I am nowadays. Idk whether to take that as a compliment or feel like people are lowkey calling me fat.

I still have so much work to do. But any progress is progress so I'm happy. Just need to keep going to the gym and I'll be good.

This is the 3rd month in a row where I gain fat and not gain any muscles (actually, I lost some muscles this month) and it's getting really frustrating. I might stop working out since it seems pretty pointless. I think my main problem is with the diet. I have no clue what to eat/how many grams of fat/carbs I should consume and my dumbass of a coach won't understand that I do NOT eat meat and I will never do so. If any of you guys know a way to help I'd be grateful.

You can get your protein intake from other sources [Dairy mainly]
Eat as little unsaturated fats as possible and try to eat as much lean foods as you can.

Thanks but I already knew that. I need something more insightful like an entire diet plan with even the smallest details. I just can't make up my own plan.

Okay here's what I found after looking all over the internet:

MEAL1: 1/2 cup of Granola with 2 cups of low fat milk and a piece of fruit.

MEAL2 : 2tblp of Peanut Butter with 2 slices of bran bread and a banana.

PRE-WORKOUT : Protein Shake

POST-WORKOUT : Apple Juice + Protein Shake

MEAL3 : Tofu. (which I have no clue on how to cook)

MEAL4 : 2tbls Peanut Butter with 2 slices of bread. (pretty much like Meal 2)

What do you guys think?

Well, HELP ME. I'm thinking about switching one of the peanut butter meals into a cup of brown rice?? My main goal is to lower my body fat percentage to under 10% while building a little bit of muscles in the process. This is pretty much my body goal

[jolo_estrella]

Try tofu that has been marinated/smoked/seasoned, tastes much better

3 weeks without working out and when I get back to the gym, I found absolute no motivation to work out I used to do reps after reps, now I check my phones, walk around, etc ... between reps I'm having some serious stressful situations in my daily life right now and thought work out would feel good and make it go away for a bit but it wasn't

Help me please Any amazing motivation video? Any tips?
