...if you don't have anything, go install a pull-up bar somewhere, grab some dumbbells, and honestly—it would be ideal if you could get a long barbell so you can handle squats and deadlifts. That’s what constitutes a decent workout...

...you can definitely use whey; there’s no reason not to. Just take one scoop of whey and one scoop of dextrose/glucose after your training session...

The main thing is putting together a solid routine with high-quality movements. Deadlifts, squats, and pull-ups should be your bread and butter for growth. You also need to set up a bench press—either buy a bench or find a way to get it done...

I've only got some weights right now, but I'll definitely try to put something more together... Oh, and I'm not following this "scoop of dextrose/glucose" part—people keep telling me to have whey plus an apple after training... is that what you mean?

Listen, I need some answers here—please respond if you see this. HVALA!! I’m 17 years old and my main goal is putting on muscle mass. Right now, I’m sitting at about 163 lbs and 6'0". Since there isn't a gym anywhere near me, I'm pretty much stuck working out at home—doing push-ups, sit-ups, lifting weights, shoulder exercises, and so on. My question is: can I actually build significant muscle this way? I'm eating five meals a day and hitting a whey protein shake after my workouts. Also, is it okay for someone my age to be using whey given my training setup? Currently, I'm using Bio Essential protein—any advice on whether that's a good move or what else I should look for? Thanks a lot.
