Alright well I figured since I wouldn't be doing anything I might as well try to get my tone game up and get some cuts in this body. I'm a skinny dude about 160lbs and I don't want to gain mass or anything like that that'll have me looking like John Cena I just want to get a six pack and some veins popping in my arms a bit lol. Anyways how can I go about doing this? Can I just download some p90x videos and do this in my living room? Should I hit up my school's gym? Like what's a good routine for this?

    thats really all there is to it, homie lol.


    its all on you from there.


    make sure you eat right too.

    Ok well what about how my routine should be? Should I only do arms one day then abs the next or should I just get a workout in every day?

    Your a skinny ? so you got to get some muscle FIRST before you think about abs. Do a small bulk, lift hard, then cut.

    excuse me for being new because I don't know ? about exercising or what not, but I'm getting two different answers here. I got Eye telling me to just watch some p90x and get my game on and then you're telling me that I need to gain a little mass and then lift hard. I don't want to be bigger than I am I just want a damn six pack and my arms to have a couple vins popping out on some wwe type ? . Like is there one specific answer to this ? ?

    ? , abdominals are muscles, if you have no muscles, how do you figure your going to get a 6 pack? you need to lift man. Your NOT going to get BIG so don't even worry about that. Focus on MUSCLES, then everything will fall through.

    U too late for the summer bruh. But u can get started right now for next year. Focus on compound movements. If u truly a skinny dude at 5'8, 160 bulk up. I'm the exact same stats but not skinny so I dont kno how u are.
