I recently made the conscious effort to start working on building muscle. I don't belong to a gym so I thought that the first thing I should do is to start doing exercises at home.
I am starting with 5lb weights (We all have to start somewhere) and doing curls. However, after i was done, the next day my tendons in my arms hurt much more than my biceps. When i say tendons I mean the part of your arm where doctors usually draw blood from. For some reason it hurts like a mother, rather than my biceps. What's up with that?
As far as I go. I weigh 140 lbs right now and am 5"11. I wear a 29 in jeans usually so I can say im on the thin end of the spectrum. My goal for gaining muscle is to just have a little bit of definition. I have no urge whatsoever to look like a UFC fighter, I just want to be able to take my shirt off and have a little something to be proud of.
So can you guys give me any advice on how to get started, what exercises to do that I can do easily at home, what to eat, how long before i can start seeing results, etc. Any advice what so ever would be much appreciated. Thanks a billion guys.
