      I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5)
      But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. (Isaiah 64:6)
      As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. (Romans 3:10-12)

      For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)
      Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. (Matthew 11:28-30)
      I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5)
      For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13)

      Great video Mike, appreciate your stuff. A question for yourself or anyone else here, is an hour of full body weight training every third day enough? ie: Monday….Thursday….Sunday….Wednesday….Saturday….etc. I bought myself a small magnetic white board with the days of the week where I just move my little red marker up to the next session when I finish the last. I'm don't want to build really massive arms, just a nicely toned/ muscled form. Cheers.

      1. Start slow. Practice movements. Build a habit of just going to gym frequently. Go to gym 4-6 times, only work 20 minutes per muscle and focus on movement and good habits.
      2. Initiate with main muscle you are focusing on and keep tension on that muscle through entire motion.
      3. Retract Shoulders so you don't use delts for chest exercises.
      4. Hire a professional: cons: expensive and lots of bad trainers (so do your research), don't commit for months to same trainer. Just do 4 or 5 sessions with them to try them out till you find a good one. Pros, can help you prevent years of bad habits and mistakes and catapult you into your ideal body ahead of schedule.
      5. Avoid group training. You need individual attention. Though, this may be better than nothing with a good trainer.
      6. Once confident with movements work on progressively overloading. Each week you up the weight, or up the difficulty with the position where applicable. (For me, my small gym stops at 50Lbs dumbells, so I have to make the movement harder, sometimes by taking every other motion extra painfully slow, but I never do it all that way since exploding up is also great. )
      7. TRACK what you are lifting each session.
      8. Starting out avoid just doing ONE muscle group that day.
      9. Hit each muscle group twice a week minimum. 2 days on chest, 2 days on arms, etc. (and feel free to switch it up and mix n match.)
      10. start out by ensuring that you eat right before a workout and after. The rest will come in time… Also, calorie tracking.
      11. Change up your routine to focus on weaknesses, but don't forget to at least hit each muscle group once a week.

      [I prolly didn't hit everything he said, nor did I necessarily properly represent what he said, so watch the video, but I hope this helps the lazies xD]

      My 2 cents of advice… for the first week or 2, just get into the habit of going to the gym, even if you do easy sessions for 2 weeks, make it become part of your daily routine, once it becomes second nature THEN start concentrating on really smashing your workout, I've noticed most people start with the best intentions, SMASH their first 2 or 3 sessions, feel achy and because it's not become a habit yet they never go back, the first step is adjusting the lifestyle

      It's still amaze me just how lots of people do not know about Custokebon Secrets (do a search on google) despite the fact that a lot of people lost lots of weight using it. Thanks to my pal who told me about it. I have lost a lot of fat.

      I don't get it. Pretty much every in every article, every video people say "DON'T FLARE YOUR ELBOWS!" You were clearly flaring your elbows about as much as one can during a dumbbell bench press shot. Yet your chest is magnificent just like the rest of your body. So flare? Don't flare? So hard to learn anything from youtube when everyone is saying and doing different things.
