Just want to introduce myself,
I'm 33 and have always gone about the gym alone (not that I'm anti-social) with no help. There was a point where I was tipping the scales at 320 lbs, not a nice place to be. Long story short I woke up one day filled with motivation even though it was driven by anger and dropped down to 185 lbs inside of 10 months. Since then I have had my highs on lows but never coming close to the morbidly obese 320 lbs I once was, at worse I never went over 220 lbs which is what I currently weigh. I used to go to the gym by myself because as difficult as it may sound, finding a gym partner that is willing to come with you consistently is next to impossible. Even when I dropped down to 185 lbs I was never totally happy, deep down inside I always wanted to look like a body builder. Yes it's easier said than done, and I'm not the first nor the last guy whose come on to a board and say I wanna look jacked. Motivation or dedication for me has never been a problem, but it feels 10x harder when your doing things alone with no partner let alone with the right knowledge or guidance. I can honestly say I have no morality issues with taking steroids but no one at the gym I used to go to seemed or wanted to look jacked. So just imagine how awkward it would have been if I brought the subject up. I hope you guys can help me gain the right knowledge to reach my goals. Any help, tips, or advice is greatly appreciated.
