Why I Got Started
My grandfather has been a bodybuilder his entire life, and recently did his last competition at age 59 and took 1st place in the grand master's division. I have always been into fitness, but I knew I needed to take it to the next level if I wanted to compete and take first one day.

Suggestions For OthersIf you're skinny, eat as much as you possible can and lift as often as your body will allow. Your goal is hypertrophy, not strength, so don't try to keep up with the big guys and lift the same weight. It's all about a pump, not how much your lifting.
If you're overweight, stop eating carbs, do cardio at or above your training heart rate, shorten your rest periods between sets, and lift as often as your body will allow.
