When a lot of people, mainly young men, head to the gym the first thing they think of is building muscle. They think they want to look like Arnie.
Trust me- you don’t want to look like that
So they follow their trainers program for a few weeks, get bored, get on the internet and start reading . They learn about seemingly effective strategies like bulking (an overeating strategy which works - if you are on anabolic steroids. Most normal people just get fat). They start eating and lifting weights every day of the week. Sure their arms are growing but so is their gut.

A lean normal looking body that is functionally strong and physically appealing.
And that is not something that can be achieved by traditional body building strategies, overeating, expensive gym memberships, creatine and steroids.
