New to Bodybuilding Christchurch

[anaru13]

I walked into the supplements store and was trying to ask the guy which protein shakes I needed to build muscle. The guy was holding back on all info and was treating my as a threat. He then told us he'd just took out and won 2 weight classes in bodybuilding but continued to shut us down about what we should use.

We're only a few bro's that set up home gyms  bench dumbells etc to keep us out of trouble and feel better about ourselves we've been pumping for few months now but after this guy shrugged us off and made us feel like that I'm now motivated to get into bodybuilding.  

I just don't know where to start. 

I'm slim but I've trained on & off most my life. Now I'm looking for the next step. Chur

Well I don't know about that Realtalk but let me tell you a little something about myself and how much I can bench.   😂😂😂😂

Strange... Usually people in supplement stores are only too eager to sell you as much protein as they can.

I have since joined city fitness. I been going for bout 2months now. I'm surrounded by them but talking to strangers who are doing their own work outs is another story. I'm at the gym now not but not that simple to be a body builder

Turn it around bro! Id take it as a compliment, normally when another male is threatened by your presence its because he feels inferior simple...its  like at the gym its normally the puny little runts who puff up there chests and walk like gorillas with there arms out the side, the feel small and inferior so they have to act tough and think they're massive.
