Let’s face it, teens. Unless your parents are loaded,
you don’t have a lot of money. Probably you either work
for a low wage or get a little money from Mom or Dad. As a
result, you may read with hopeless envy about the great gyms,
expensive supplements and vast quantities of high-quality
foods that older bodybuilders seem to take for granted. It’s
true that these things can make progress much faster and easier,
but it’s also true that many great physiques were built
under impoverished conditions. If you’re wondering how
to get the best bodybuilding results out of your limited funds,
here are some ideas.
Buy food in quantity - Every part of the
country now has membership warehouses like Price Club and
Costco. You can buy huge amounts of eggs, milk, chicken breasts,
ground beef, rice and pasta at discount prices from these
places. Check your local newspaper for supermarket specials
on meats. If you keep your eyes open, you can find deals all
the time and get plenty of high-quality protein without spending
a fortune.
Find a deal on a gym membership - Many hardcore
bodybuilding gyms offer discount memberships for students,
but don’t overlook the neighborhood YMCA or Boys’
Club of America, many of them have very well-equipped weight
rooms. You don’t need all kinds of space-age machines
to grow, however. You can build a great physique with nothing
but barbells and dumbbells. In fact, bodybuilders who get
very strong on exercises like barbell squats, bench presses
and deadlifts almost always have more size and thickness than
those who fool around with cables and machines all day.
Share magazine subscriptions and
books - Can’t afford all the magazines
and books you need to keep up with the sport? If you find
a friend or two who share your interest, pool your resources.
Maybe together you can get all the magazines and won’t
miss a thing. Then you can all stay informed.
Make
your own supplements - While you probably can’t
whip up your own creatine monohydrate, you can certainly
make weight-gain or protein shakes. All you need is a
blender, milk, eggs, ice cream and fruit or whatever you
want to use to flavor your concoction. Use these shakes
either to add protein and calories to a meal or to replace
a meal when you’re on the run. |

Wear normal clothes - Those striped tights,
designer sweat shirts and special “bodybuilding”
athletic shoes look neat, but do you really need them to pack
on muscle? Not at all. As long as you’re comfortable
while you train, you’re doing fine. The old-time bodybuilders
all trained in generic T-shirts and sweats, and their development
didn’t suffer. Training is what really matters.
Choose your gifts carefully - When a gift-receiving
occasion like Christmas or your birthday is coming up, let
folks know you’d really love to have that gym membership
or supplement. That way you might get something you want instead
of some new underwear.
These are just a few ideas. Necessity is the mother of invention;
so wrack your brain and see what else you can come up with.
There are plenty of ways to get big now.
