er.... great to have you here in one of your fits of enthusiasm, lol!

seriously, all the information you need is already within these forums. pay particular attention to the stickies.

for diet information, cursor and LadyC are very knowledgeable, while Jaster (aka, "Man Mountain") and MostMuscle ("sex on a stick") are two of the exercise experts.

ok how about now help me with these terms: bench pressing, fly, pullover, shoulder press, lateral raise, reverse fly, back & triceps, row, shrug, triceps extension, kickback, calf raise, curl, hammer curl, reps, and cardio. yea i got these words frm other threads and i don't understand a word their talkin bout. Yeah im such a newb shoot hahah.

they're all exercises except for reps and cardio. "reps" stands for "repetitions" - how many times you do the movement. a "set" is a given number of reps, for example, 3 sets of 10 reps.

cardio is running, walking, hiking, biking, stair climbing, treadmill, or any other exercise that gets your heart pounding.
