Default Just started working out

Yeah im kind of like a stick but i do have some muscle
I'm 5'8 and i weigh 119 so you can tell how skinny I am

But just some quick questions about body building
I just bought some creatine today and I already have a lot of whey
On the creatine thing it says to take it before i work out
and i've always take whey after the work out.
Should i take protein shakes or creatine any other time of the day?
Because on the creatien it says for maintence take it 1-2 times a day and for building it says take 4-5 times a day

BTW I usually wake up at 5:50 and eat a good breakfast
eat a solid lunch at 10:30
eat a late lunch/ dinner at 3
and work out from around 4-5
take whey 15 minutes after workout
and eat dinner around 7

BTW if i work out 2 muscles a day would this work good
Back and biceps
Shoulders and forearms
Chest and triceps
Legs
And then repeat..

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"

Definitely focus on your big lifts, as has been posted allready, like your pressing and pulling movements. Squats and deadlifts cannot be stressed enough.

Flyes are not necessary, pec deck is not necessary, concentration curls are not necessary. Forget the preacher curls and leg extensions. Nevermind the cable crossovers; it makes a great picture on the cover of a magazine, but it's not the most productive exercise for your chest. Throw this stuff out.

What this leaves are the complex lifts, and the basic lifts. The exercises that have the biggest effect on the body as a whole.

I did a workout one time where there weren't even curls, or tricep exercises. You don't have to take it quite that far but it shows you how important the big lifts are. You will be working your triceps and biceps doing the big lifts.

Please note the following. Be careful of advice from some of these bodybuilders out there. Some of these guys could grow now matter how they lift. Just because a guy is huge doesn't mean he knows what is best for you.

Your best advice would probably come from somebody who is similar to you, and got great results off of, lets say, program "X."

Get big man,

Troy
