Soon I am going to start bodybuilding. What are some good work out courses? Like what to do for starting out? I am looking to get fit as well as look good. Also what should I have for a diet?

Here is more info: 180 pounds, about 6'1.

Welcome to DB Darren884!

Here's some short tips:

1) As far as diet you need to figure out your goal. Gain muscle, burn fat, maintain. It's pretty easy to calculate our calories required by going to the nutrition forum and checking out the TOP posts.

2) The Training fourm has many routines. But the main ones are Max-OT and Optimum Anabolics. Neither of which I would suggest for a complete newbie. My suggestion would be to try out this program first.

3) Then start READING. Because this forum is jam packed full of into, links and great people.

My Shameless Plug:

I also wrote a Beginner's Guide to Fitness and Bodybuilding. It has a lot of what this forum has and all my 16 years of experience written down in a easy to read eBook. If you want to save about 2 years of reading, you can pick up a copy here: (never mind the pathetic sales page. Does not do it justice to the amount of time and effort I have put forth)
