I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TIME OR WHEREWITHAL TO ENSURE AN ELEVATED AMOUNT OF PROTEIN INTAKE DAILY MOM

Protein shakes are the healthiest source of protein tho. Zero carbs, zero fats, zero cholesterol etc.
Anyway, you could always go the old fashioned route and drink 5 raw eggs and a carton of milk after a workout. I've done that before. It's less disgusting than it sounds.

I'm on another fitness kick, trying to gain muscle. I took progress pictures but after 2 weeks my body still looks the same (don't say no stupid **** ). Probably because I wasn't eating a whole lot, now I'm trying to eat a whole lot.

UGHHH my mom said no to protein shakes last year, I don't know if that'll change now that I'm 18, prob not.

I would be so BOMB if my body was together, you have no idea. And with a haircut and my skin clear, I'd be on my model model tbh

Do the 60 push ups a day for 30 days challenge.

And your mom kinda right. It can be bad for your liver/kidneys. But I'm sure you'd use it responsibly. I don't have the energy to be cooking up and down, so I stay skinny. I wish I had a woman to make me meals

Why no protein shakes?

And yeah, trying to gain muscle isn't gonna happen if you're not eating (more than your daily caloric intake) & not getting enough protein. Plus, it's gon take more than a couple weeks to notice a diffetence, homie.

What the hell is a daily caloric intake?

And I only get one period in the morning at school to use the weight room. I started benching and squatting as well. I need a chest - like I need a chest and I don't have much of one.

I need bigger arms.

I need a tighter stomach. I need a lot.

My friend is cut af and he says he doesn't believe in protein shakes, he just exercises at home and takes in a lot of protein ("I do 30 pushups and then eat a PB&J sandwiches, and repeat until I can't anymore") He is a football player, basketball player, and track runner tho so

Exercise and fitness is a lifestyle. Ain't nobody got time for that.
Though I need to get my ass in shape a bit before June comes so I won't die at my summer job.

Daily caloric intake is the amount of calories you would eat everyday to maintain your current weight. It's usually calculated by current height, weight, and usual activity levels throughout the day.

If you eat more than your DCI, then you'll usually gain fat. Turn that fat into muscle by lifting at least 3x a week. Sounds like you're looking for a slow bulk tho.

Eat lots of protein-filled foods like meat, cheese, eggs, nuts, etc.

Understandable. Pushups and pull-ups, I don't mess with. I hate using my own weight. That's why my chest is a myth atm

It'll look into it, but uhh yes dieting is hard. Quite.

The first 3 weeks - month is always the hardest. If you can continue pass that, you'll be set.
I usually go 3 - 4 times a week. Usually a 5/6 AM

[NewRihannaStan]

I do squats

Wow. You wake up at 5/6 a.m. multiple times a week? That's amazing.

[Javan]

What do squats actually do tho? I tried once and I didn't feel nothing. It's a useless scam! Or am I supposed to put a bar on my back?

That's when the gym is the most empty and that's how I prefer it to be when I work out. I'd much rather not deal with the afternoon/evening crowds or the middle-age/old people that come around 9/10 a.m.

Shaun T's Insanity Max is also pretty good if you don't wanna do the whole gym thing.
I do it every now and then and it's quite intense.

My problem is when I do start up, I'm impatient and don't rest, then I end up injuring myself.
At this point as long as I can run 2 miles without dying and do more than 50 push-ups I'm good, I don't care about that other ****.
