Just made it through about a page and a half of this thread and fact: not a single jackass on the OT lounge knows what works for you and your body. Go out to Barnes and Noble and buy a few books on lifting that are written by people that actually know what they're talking about and have experience with training people that have different goals, body types, experience levels, etc. and read them cover to cover.

Anybody that tells you that there's a definitive way to reach your personal goals is full of shite or has no clue what they're talking about. After you research different exercises, methods, and workouts that you think might work for you, the next step is to do each one for a while and see if it gives you results. If it gives you results, stick with it for a few months and then find a new workout to go to because your body's going to adapt and the old workout is going to quit giving you results.

My advice is this: nutrition/bodybuilding/supplementation is ridiculously complicated and you're going to have to sift through a ton of pseudoscience and bro science even from so called experts so either be dedicated and put a ton of time into googling, reading books, sifting through bodybuilding websites or just go on bodybuilding.com and use their workout designer for your body type and goals. I personally think it's fun and interesting to read about and do trial and error but if you don't then there's nothing wrong with just finding a prefab workout from bodybuilding, although long term you probably won't see as impressive of results as learning how and why to do certain things.

Also sorry for the wall of text, just wanted to be thorough so you don't waste a ton of time in the gym and get nothing out of it

I agree. I've basically been doing this. I mean I've made gains no doubt, but I could be so much further ahead if I would've just read a lot and not just halfass googled and jumped in a few years ago.
