I thought it was gonna be easy to write, but there was just so much to cover.

We cover the basics of nutrition (especially nutrients and healthy eating), weight loss, weight gain, and getting into fitness. I have two workout routines I recommend and detail in this guide. I also make recommendations for my trans comrades who might be scared of getting too buff as chuds are too fragile to touch this topic and information is sorely lacking, so someone has to step up (done to the best of my knowledge as a cis person mind you).

And this shit is all free, what the fuck am I even doing. Anyway, enjoy it.

    absolutely based writeup

    don't have any immediate criticism, and this isn't really a request to add but more a general one for everyone - do you have any good resources or videos on form for lifting/exercises?
    it's been years since I read Rippetoe (plus, isn't he a bit of an arsehole anyway) and years since I was actually fit, but my consistent battle against my brain (ADHD overanalysis and depression affecting body image) is that I consistently think i'm going to do things wrong and have poor form, which makes me worry that I'll fuck myself up in a session one day.

      I'll add Scott Hermann and Athlean X to the channel, they give really good bite-sized tutorials.

      Problem with form is someone is gonna tell you to do it one way and someone else is gonna tell you to do it another way. Overall I am a big proponent in a) listening to your body if it starts hurting or chafing when it shouldn't and b) if it feels harder when you change your form a little, then you're doing something good.
