Forum: Workout Programs

I’m new to weightlifting/fitness and I’m building up a regiment. I have a pretty good idea of what to do, but obviously there’s a ton of misinformation out there. What is some of the stupid/blatantly wrong crap you’ve heard before, and what is the actual truth?

2018 we had a squat thread, goal 10,000,000. We got almost 4,500,000 that year if I remember right. This year, all free weight squats count: barbell, dumbbell, kettlebell, water bottles, bricks, backpack full of books, concrete plates, heavy pole, or anything you've got to squat. Just weigh it...

I'm a total beginner and don't know where to start with weightlifting. I've always been a skinny guy, although right now I am overweight because of the pandemic, but never had muscles. Do you recommend losing fat before lifting? How can I start at home? Any help would be awesome.

I've been reading the 3DMJ pyramid books and came up with a routine for myself. It's designed for me to do at home, so it only uses a barbell, dumbbells and chin up bar - otherwise I'd have a leg press and leg curl in there. Volume is a bit of an increase compared to what I've done to date, but...

Hey, Can anyone recommend a strength program for my bench press and shoulder press. I run a PPL split, so the program would have to involve either benching and shoulder pressing heavy once a week each, or just shoulder pressing heavy twice a week (I am more concerned over my shoulder press than...

I've been lifting for a few years now, but never took it too seriously. My main goal was to regain 'healthy' weight after a stomach surgery. I was borderline anorexic (183cm & 59kg) and got up to 75kg, at which I've been hoovering for the past 2-3 years. I still went to the gym, but that was more...

Edit: The age above is wrong. I am 27. Joined here a while ago but never started working out until about 5 weeks ago. I have been working out every other day using body weight, resistance bands, two little drink bottles, & gallon jugs. I have gained 18sh pounds and feel much stronger already....
