Hello,
I started going to the gym 1 year ago and made some weight gains. My weight increased from 56kg to 70kg on 1,78m. I am still pretty young (17) so I asked older ppl for hints.
The problem is that EVERYONE is telling me a different opinions.
When I do Squats a muscular person comes to me and tells me dont go to deep on the squats (I go bellow 90 degres)
Some tell me exercise every day, some tell me 3 times a week. My goal is muscle mass.
Atm I do Starting Strenght as a program. I told one of the big guys in the gym and he said "You guys never learn. Dont copy shit from the internet". Its hard to disagree when he got his great body as a prove that his method works.
Yet other gym members tell me that SS is great and I should continue doing it.
My force values are:
Squat: 60kg 3x5
Deadlift: 80kg 3x5
Bench Press: 60kg 3x5
Overhead Press: 37,5kg
Barbell Rows: 50kg
so nothing spectacular. Do you have any hints for me how to react on hints (Lol) Its not about how to react if ppl aproach me and give me hints. I have no problem with that, but I ask myself alot if I am on the right track since I am not looking as I want to look like.
