i workout, i got 24hour fitness training, i weight 165 lbs, i guess i got big but none of my muscles are really cut at all.
i drink 40g protein shake after workout and before sleep.
i try to eat alot of meat throughout the day or anything that has protein, like non-fat milk during class etc.

i was wondering if i was allowed to do triangle or military pushups every night before i go to bed.
and how to get stronger and my abs stronger?

PLEASE HELP ME ! THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING

Buy the book starting strength and do everything it tells you. 5x5 is too much volume for a newb.

Remember safety first.

Looking back at when i was 15. It would hv been great if i realized how important the compound movements are.

If i could go back and start over. I would start by Learning proper squatting, deadlifting, benching, dips, pullups and standing overhead press.(the pullups and dips may even be to much)

Thoughts all?

Stick around and keep taking the advice you are getting.You will be glad you did.
Most of all welcome to EF.

Yeah keep the core lifts and concentrate on them. The core lifts being deadlifts, squats, military press, benchpress and rows. With just those 5 you have an ideal newb routine

one important thing for you to know is that most programs and advice you will get is really meant for an adult. the difference between you and an adult is that your body is still developing. it is the best time for you to get into training but only if you do it correctly. it is not safe or healthy for you to do any low rep sets. you will screw your joints up bad. you need to stick with strict movements at a rep range of 12 or higher. you also need to make sure you always have food in your stomach. muscle recovery draws on your resorces like a baby on a pregonant woman and at the same time your body is still trying to develop and grow. this also uses the same resorces. so foo is twice as important for you than it is for an adult.

by the way those moves aint nothin. dont make me break out my mc hammer casset and cardboard box and serve up a can whoop ass!!!

j/k good luck to you.

Got anything to back this up? I don't see any reason why sets of 5 would hurt his joints any more than sets of 12. If anything it is much easier to keep strict form for 5 reps than 12. The most important thing is learning to do the lifts properly.

I agree With Joe d After a few weeks around week 8, Then I would reccommend switching, yah gotta build those joints up and it would suck just getting started and have an injury, a lot have quit by hurting themselves!

Adding size is not about drinking protein. You need to EAT protein.

Your bench is good, what about deadlift, squat, row etc

Biceps will come from hittin the big lifts, Barbell Rows and Deads alone will give your biceps more mass, and if you start the madcow 5x5 then you will have pullups in there aswell.

Heres a link to the 5x5 routine althought maybe you should start at the beginner version... Ask some other people on here, Im still a n00b.
