I remember a few readers asking me for tips on exercise and fitness. Like I said I’m not a fitness expert yet but I’m looking into becoming one. I have been doing working out ever since high school, I have just begun to take it seriously now.

While I’m not too good at giving people tips on what exercises to do, I’ll do my best:

• Youtube is your best friend – there are tons of videos of people giving you lessons on what exercises to do. Youtube is great resource on learning new exercises. I know doing the usual pushups, situps, etc. gets old and you want a variety of exercises, go through youtube and find ’em all there.
• There are tons of exercise and workout videos you can buy from video stores.
• Sign up for your local gym and hire a profesional trainer to teach you (which I hope to do soon).
• When you start hitting the weights like dumbells or the benchpress, never start off by heavyweights, always start off small and work your way up. The lighter the weight gets, that’s when you’ll want to move up to another 5 pounds or so on the weights, whatever you can lift.
• Learn to eat right, by eating more proteins and eating as much as possible.
• Don’t overdo yourself. Don’t obsess with working out all day long and night nonstop. I would say working out like an hour a day or so would be good enough. You want to give your muscles some time to grow and rest. You also don’t want to strain yourself and get an injury (like I already done once before, earlier this year).
• Learn to use the best supplements from GNC and other nutrients/supplements stores that is best for you. Go online and read reviews of the best supplements of what other people are wrting about them. If other people say it’s a good product to use, then do it. Don’t go for the bad supplements that are fake and used to get a sale at the store.
• Get off the alcohol, quit smoking cigarettes or weed and stop using illegal drugs completely. They don’t help your body at all. If you want a strong, bigger and fit body, then it’s time to end your hard partying lifestyle. Exercising and lifting weights takes a lot of breath, if you cough while exercising, it’ll be hard to concentrate. Plus alcohol and drugs really doesn’t make your body better. They slow you down working out.

That’s the best I can do.
