You need to train for a purpose. The purpose could be to build muscle or to loose fat and get shredded. I can go more in detail in regards to each purpose and what you need to do specifically but the most important thing is to find the right motivation.

Ask yourself, why are you are you starting fitness? For most people is some kind of life event that leads them into fitness and bodybuilding. For other people it is the desire to become better, a desire to improve. People who start for these reasons have all the motivation they need. They just need to tap in every day to find the strength to keep moving on.

If it is a life event that has led you into bettering yourself through fitness and bodybuilding, then you are half way there. You need to use that life even to fuel your motivation. Each day in the gym you think back to that event and use it go hard and lift heavy. You put in one additional rep that you didn’t think you had it in you. Your thoughts will power your workout. When you are about to go in for a personal record on a lift, you think back to your failures and the heartbreaks and you destroy that rep and annihilate that rep.

Cut

When lifting on a cut, you are in a caloric deficit and therefore have less energy and less calories to fuel your workout. Naturally you will not be able to lift a lot of weight. There is no need to attempt personal records. This is all about keeping the muscle and burning the fat to reveal it.

• Eat in a caloric deficit.
• In terms of training, go for a higher rep range.
• Do 8-10 reps for 3+ sets for each exercise.
• Finish each session with some cardio. 10-15 minutes of cardio after each session of lifting will speed up the process of loosing fat.
• Finally, take a good fat burning supplement. That can go a long way.

Bulk

Lifting is fun when you are bulking. It is easy to gain strength and lift heavy when you are in a caloric surplus.

• Eat in a caloric surplus.
• Go for heavy weights.
• For most exercises you wanna stick to the 3-5 rep range with heavy weights.
• There is no need to do cardio, but longer training sessions can help with muscle building.
• Increase your protein intake, take a good why supplement if you have to.

Here is my call to action:
Start where you are, use what you have, and do what you can!!! It doesn’t matter where you start as long as you get better with time. Which you will! You will learn with time and improve.
