Advice please, Im too skinny!

Post by Kennerley »

Heyy, im 19 years old and dont currently know weight lol...

Im quite tall/skinny and only started working out about 3weeks ago, i had no definition
what so ever before and im happy with the results im getting just doing resistance training.
Im trying to get more mass but muscle at the same time, there is alot of help for if you are fat and wanting
to gain muscle, but not if youre skinny.

I think biggest problem is sholders, theres no meat there atall and i really dont like it :/
Let me know what you think, and what i can do about body overall, Thanks :wink:

Horrible pictures of me - http://s1142.photobucket.com/albums/n60 ... =slideshow" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - I dont look so bad from a distance :|

Ive been following this site's workout routine - http://www.iwantsixpackabs.com/workout/week1.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
and it seems to be working. i can't do the amount of reps yet so im just going to do a few more weeks resistance training till i can.
If someone could give me anywhere better than here thats free and works id appreciate it loads :)
