From Iowa, name's Jim. I currently weigh 195 lbs. and am 5'9''. Most of the weight is body fat. I started lifting about two weeks ago, main plan is to lose weight and gain strength. Any advice would be great!!!! Thanks.

make sure you look through the fatloss section and look through the training section to find some workouts that would be good for you...............

WELCOME!!

	Eric3237's Sig:APT ProWristStraps If you lift a little pink dumbell 300 times...toward the end it will "feel" intense. If you think it IS intense, then you need a better defintion of intensity.

	TALO's Sig:"But when do you actually grow? Well, we don't grow in the gym. In the gym, we destroy. We tear down the body. We only grow when we are recovering. That's right, I said recovery. I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"
