Fuuuuuuck. I started this today and I initially laughed at the weight the app recommended after I put all my info in. I am fucking D E D. Doing actual real deep squats. Fuck.
So glad you started and I followed.
This is why I keep posting in this thread, so that maybe someone else will be inspired.

squats past parallel ftw
Yeah. ...yeah... ass touching my calves. Doing 90lbs because that what the app recommended I start with and I laughed heartedly.
I'm not laughing anymore.
I started at the bottom. With the bare bar and worked my way up.... It was worth it to learn form and get used to it. And like you said.... Its harder than it seems! Especially as the days pile up.
It worked for me as well. Have a MUCH farther way to go than anyone on here, but started KETO again about 6 weeks ago after reading this thread again and am down about 20 pounds so far... Keep it up!
Monday: I felt like I could conquer the world
Tuesday: I was feeling it
Tuesday night: I ran. WHY
Wednesday: Help
Really looking forward to next Wednesday as that would be 5 workouts and the app will start graphing my progress. Down 39 pounds since the VA called me fat.
Ive been trying to put on some size lifting pretty heavy for a couple months every day my entire body hurts and is sore
Thats part of why I decided to cut the increase in half. Being sore all the time just wasn't working for me. It doesn't motivate me to get shit done around the house or go out and be active in other ways like playing basketball or going for bike rides with my wife.
And adding 10lbs per to my deadlift was a challenge. I was getting the wobbly knee as I approached 200lbs.
I use knee sleeves for dl's or squats, it makes a big difference on how my knees feel the day after, when i was starting to squat in the upper 200's my knee wouldn't work the next morning for the first couple minutes after i got out of bed, now its all good and ive added a lot of weight to my squat and dead lift since
Do you have any tips for a beginner that can't be found on the internet?
just to focus on the big lifts and proper form over heavy weight, I also like to have some carbs before and after a workout, I normally eat a full meal after, and don't waste your money on all kinds of supplement crap, especially dieting eat your protein don't waste calories on a protein shake that wont fill you up, I'm no pro at lifting or diet I just have fun at the gym and try to eat halfway decent food
Yeah, I'm not out to compete in any competitions or anything fancy. I want this to be a hobby and look good as a result. I didn't even think of eating before lifting, so I may want to do that before I start to get to the heavy weight. Thanks for the advice.
Broke down and bought a redbull today...
Sounds like double duty at the gym today.
