 What's up, EHP labs? My name is Matt Hito aka Goku Flex and welcome to the new series on the HP labs channel So every week I'll be putting up a video trying to help you guys make gains now a little background on me I'm born and raised from the island of Hawaii. I'm a youtuber online coach and HP labs athlete So these are three tips that I wish that someone told me back when I first I was 14 years ago And I would have progressed a lot faster. So let's get into it tip number one Finding a workout program and putting your plan together Now first off you're going to figure out how many days can you work out a week? And how many days are you realistically going to dedicate to the gym every single week? And you're going to hit that every single week no excuses So whether that be three days a week four days a week five days a week It doesn't matter to me understand as a new lifter less is more And you will need that recovery time because you are brand spanking you and you're going to be making those You be gained in the beginning. So once you figure out how many days you can work out a week Let's say you can only work out four days a week go on google and google four day workout split for beginners Understand that you don't know exactly what you like because you haven't tried any workout split yet And the more workout splits you try in the future Then you you can be a little bit more particular to your liking and figure out, you know What styles and what types of type of training that you like to do But as a beginner just find something that you can stick with You want to keep on the same program anywhere from six to eight weeks if not longer for me personally If I like the program and and I'm enjoying the process of making gains Then I'll stay on the same program for as long as six months to a year Program hopping is gonna set back your game another tip I want to add before we move on to the next tip is do not be a form monkey watch tutorial videos You know practice go to gym record yourself Like no one in the gym should have bad form because of the internet everyone's bodies build differently So it's not going to be exactly the same But the basics of good form is always the same So what I want you guys to do is as a new lifter Watch tutorial videos on benching on squatting on deadlifting on any of the big compound movements because those are the movements That you are going to want to practice and perfect They're going to you do also the most gains in the long term And these are also the movements that when are done improperly can also injure you but understand that form over weight At all times tip number two is diet forget about it This is the number one thing that I see far too many people mess up on even like my clients as well Is they overthink everything and they get paralysis by analysis meaning they have so much information They're trying to perfect everything they're trying to make the best gains of their life happen in this one Month and they want to know everything and have everything just perfect to the tea Understand things are never going to be perfect. The number one thing and this leads into my third tip is consistency This is the most important tip if you get one thing from this video That is don't stop no matter what Once you start consistently going into the gym and learning to love the gym and love the process and love the Progress that you're making then start worrying about your diet. You can have the most messed up workout plan You can have the most messed up diet, but as long as you are consistently You know working at it and you never give up Then you'll keep making progress and everything else will fall in place for me personally That's what I can dedicate my 14 years of gains to is consistency because the internet wasn't around all this information All this youtube information wasn't around back when I first started lifting so stay consistent Don't give up and I promise you you will make gains So that's the end of video make sure to leave the video a like Stay tuned and subscribe for next week's video and I'll see you guys in the next one much love trust and honor.
