The body sculpting Bible for men is what started me off right 16 years ago. I consider it to be one of the best purchases I ever made.

They show you proper form and describe mistakes not to make. Every muscle group has several exercises illustrated.

I picked one, studied it for about a minute, went to the gym, did it, came back and re-studied it for another minute. The next time I picked another one and added it to my routine.

After ten sessions I had a routine built up that I'm still using. All because of that one book.

It's on Amazon for about $18.

Don't be intimidated. There are people of all different fitness levels and experience at any given time. Just put together a day-to-day workout plan so you know exactly what exercises you will be doing, and how many reps and sets of each workout, for any given day. Make sure to research proper form, too. If putting together a workout plan is a bit confusing for you, you can consult a fitness coach at the gym (most gyms have experts on staff that will give you guidance and teach you form for free).

I've recommended this book to others. I used it when I began to take weight lifting more seriously and it was fantastic. It's a quick read and easy to understand since it is targeted for beginners. It will guide you through the process or creating a workout plan for yourself.

Good luck!

I've been power lifting for a bit over a year and have gotten good results from it. Recently, though, I've come to the realization that I'm getting older and have become very concerned about injuring myself on a lift by tweaking a muscle in my back or something. My football days are long gone and my job isn't very physical, so I traded my powerlifting program for more of an aesthetic one.

I'd recommend you look at the Body Sculpting Bible for Men or the Body Sculpting Bible for Women. There is diet info and workout regimens from beginner to advanced. If you're an experienced lifter you probably won't get a whole lot out of this book, but for a newbie it's a great place to start.

If you don't want to deal with trainers and you have your smartphone on you, you could get on YouTube and watch videos of people performing the lifts and giving advice on form.

Not at all. They're for anyone. And if you really want to make it to the goal you're setting for yourself you're going to need to learn the stuff in my book at some point.

For workouts, start with Body Sculpting Bible:

For mindset, start with my book.

and for learning how to eat, read this:

For 10 of the 12 weeks I followed The Body Sculpting Bible for Men and focused on only the Mass workouts. I really love this book and if I would have actually been able to eat more I know I would have had better results. To be on the safe side, I didn't do any of the cardio/abs days in the book just so I didnt burn any calories. Looking back I should have done more abs. :P The plus side to this was that I didn't gain any fat and I did retain my shape of being lean. Next time I will aim to eat even more healthy calories each day because I would get lazy on the weekends and only have a coffee for breakfast and then a dinner...(which was stupid of me). A quick nutshell of my nutrition was that everyday I went to the gym I would have a shake first thing in the morning, right after my workout, and right before bed.

tl;dr buy the book and eat a crap ton and drink them shakes.

The real difference began when I began lifting weights in the morning on a empty stomach. Intermittent Fasting gave me amazing results as well.
