Hell no! It doesn’t matter if you are 30, 40, or even 50. Go get your gym membership today, buy a bunch of protein and go chase your goals!

I don’t see why it would be. Of course weights lifted, target bodyweight and physique shape might differ but the fundamentals of diet and hard work are the same regardless of sex.

Hey man welcome to the community! Good to be thinking about diet as that’s where so many people mess up. Most important thing at your age is to be getting enough carbs pre-workout to fuel the intensity, and then enough protein throughout the day to rebuild. Shoot for 80-90% of your bodyweight (pounds) in grams of protein.

I am 17 years old and have just started lifting at my high school gym. What would an ideal beginner bodybuilding diet look like? I’m on a budget too if you can recommend affordable options. Thank you!

All you need is food, so if you have that covered you don’t need a budget for anything. Fancy shoes and clothes are not necessary. If lifting heavy the one accessory I would invest in would be a quality squat belt.

what about it? do it if you want to be lean/cut. Don’t do it if you don’t care.
