Time to Level Up

After focussing on swimming, yoga, body balance and general cardio sessions, I started including weights in my regime last September. I'm really enjoying it and starting to see results, which is, in itself, hugely motivational to take it up to the next level. I want to learn and understand the body science of building muscle through fitness and good eating. This feature from Muscle and Fitness looks like a good read and resource for anyone starting out or, like me, wants to take training up a step.


The UltimateStarter's Guide

The best athletes and bodybuilders in the world weren’t born with superhuman strength and chiselled abs. At one point, they were just like you: a true newbie, a beginner, and not altogether certain of what to do first. In times like these, you need a blueprint to tell you exactly what to do in the gym, when to do it, and what kinds of foods and supplements to put in your body. That’s what you have here—a starter’s guide to get you going so that two months from now you’ll be ready to graduate from beginner status—with a bigger, stronger, leaner physique to show for it.
