hi all

so glad to find a forum like this... im just getting into excersing and could do with a few tips... im a guy in my early 30's with a good shape to my legs ( i do a lot of walking and more recently cycling) and my arms but am really wanting to work on my upper body... im not at all fat although i am starting to get a belly which i dont want to develop any further.. more than that my upper body seems shapeless and looks chunky when ive clothes on than it actually is... i cant figure out why but really want to do something about it....... any tips on where to start or sites to check out?

thanks all!

Basic stuff:
-Eat right and drink lots of water
-Train full body to adapt your body to movements....keep it functional....and burn optimal calories
- More free weights than machines (including hammer strength and smith squat machine)
- Repeat for many days to come

Check out T-nation.com.....and Exrx.net

and just lurk around here...ask questions when you have them, but just reading what other people post and the replies will steer you in the right direction.

i like t-nation, but it can be intimidating, and their focus there is being rather beefed up and strong...they just take it extreme. if you can deal with that, they have a lot of great info.
