Weights

Personally I think everyone works out differently and you just need to find the best way for you.

Some people can build muscle off just working a muscle group once a week whereas others need to lift weights more regularly.

I’ve been through phases of working every muscle group every other day, focusing on muscle groups throughout the week, working on 2 muscle groups every other day. Results vary from person to person.

Just remember you build muscles out of the gym. The gym is where you damage your muscles. Outside of the gym your muscles repair and rebuild stronger. Therefore rest is as important as training. Nutrition is also as important. Sleep well, eat well and work out sensibly and you should be fine.

Also, cardio is just as important as weight training. If you’re looking to maximize fat burning look up “interval training” or “fartlek”. Bear in mind though that this again affects your work out and the way your muscles will build.

Try writing down your workout down, checking online for others routines and don’t be afraid to find an online community or a knowledgeable adult who can help you. You’re still developing and the last thing you want to do is give yourself a permanent injury.
