How to exercise

Do starting strength, eat a caloric surplus, take that shit off your neck it looks dumb as fuck.

>Don't want to buy a gym membership unless I know what I'm gonna do and not look stupid in the gym.

Go to a gym with an instructor and take a free lesson.

focus on compound lifts
drink a gallon of whole milk a day in addition to your normal diet
continue this for at least 3 months up to 9 months it will give you your strength base and is the quickest way to achieve that base. You will not look amazing from this strategy but in the long run it is the most effective, also you will get noticeable gains every session (adding weight)

I did, I don't wear that shit anymore. How much calories should I intake? What strength training exercises?
>>41383005
Yeah, I'll probably do that, but I do not want to depend on an instructor. Do want to shell out more money than I need to

The gallon of milk a day isn't totally necessary as long as you eat enough to gain weight, which is likely a lot more than you want to eat. Starting Strength is a specific program that involves specific exercises; you'll want to get the book in order to do it right, but if you just want to do it sort of partially right and not have to read a book, you can just look up the routine and still make gains.

Read GreyskullLP second edition, or StrongLifts webpage
its all referenced in the sticky
but with your reading comprehension i doubt you'll ever do anything with your life

>>41382903
If you're too lazy to even read the sticky then it's pointless for you to even set foot in a gym.

Christ you're tiny

Try to get 250g carbs, 50g fat, 150g protein a day. Fat can go up as long as it's not saturated and from beneficial sources (legumes, fish). Keep sugar intake low, like less than 45g.
Drink lots of water.

Pick one of the beginner routines in the sticky. Just pick one. They all have their camps of supporters to tell you why theirs is the best. Just pick one. Find a gym that you can get to 3+ times a week and use their barbells. Start doing the program. Start light, you're a small guy.
Not sure how to do something and too beta to ask someone to demonstrate?
