Newfag, what have I got to do?

maybe OP wants to bloatmaxx

Are you on the Ketogenic diet right now?

No

Nah man I want to look good (don't give me that subjective crap you know what I mean).

Bump

Just go lift weights and gain 30 lbs over the next years. What the fuck do you think you would need to do? Lift fucking weights.

Now we’re getting somewhere. Do you have any gym experience at all?

Yes, I know how to perform the compound lifts, etc...

For a rough strength marker I can do 10 strict pull-ups in a straight set (no kipping)

Have you been progressing with your compounds? Do you feel like you’re working very hard without compromising form excessively?

>38in chest
Yikes, you need at least a 39in chest for anyone to ever consider loving you, thanks for going through the trouble of measuring an arbitrary part of your body and allowing us fat LARPers to assess your worth as a human being from behind a keyboard.

Ok

Your genetics are fine, just eat well and lift for a year and you will see your shoulders and chest getting wider and your hips not being as wide as you think they are.
Also lurk moar, its way too much effort to spoonfeed every newfag on how to lift

IMO you have a great base. Get to lifting. You'll get beginner gains as long as you do anything, you'll learn what you like and what works good.

Build your program, or pick a program off of Squat, Deadlift, Bench, OHP(Dumbbell or barbell), Rows. As a beginner you won't even need more exercises than this. Work upper body 3x per week, lower body 1x or 2x per week. After you've run through your beginner gains in a few months, you'll have learned enough to know what to do or what program you want to follow.

Fitness is not that complicated. Going to the gym consistently and a healthy protein diet will have you look better than most people in you in 6 months. Don't forget to sleep.

But most importantly, never trust Jow Forums

I'll fucking lay this out for OP. I went from 25% bf with no muscle to 8% with 12 lbs lean gain in under a year, so I know this situation. You clearly have no muscle on your body, even under that fat. So you're going to pick either a cut or a bulk. Depending on which you pick you're either going to be even fatter or even skinnier in the short term, the important thing is pick one that you're okay with and fucking stick with it. You aren't going to start feeling and looking better until you switch from losing to gaining or gaining to losing, but when you get there after probably 4-6 months or so, you're going to be great. When gaining, don't fall into the trap of "I can eat whatever as long as i get the protein", eat fucking clean. Count your fucking calories. Beginner routines are all the fucking same thing in the end, just pick one and just fucking stick with it. And no, you aren't smarter than the person that made it, just do the fucking program. This next one is up to you in a way, but I actually recommend no cardio to begin with. Your primary goal is muscle growth and anything you do that could possibly hinder that, like burning extra calories in the event you don't eat to make up for it, is worse for you. However, if one of your immediate goals is cardiovascular health then go for it.

If you're wondering what I did to get out of the situation, I gained weight first. Yes, even at 25% bf I chose to gain weight. I worked SL for some 5 months and gained about 20 lbs before choosing to lose. Around the time I started losing weight, eating 500 less than my SEDENTARY tdee per day, I switched to PHUL. I did zero cardio until the tail end of my cut, about the last month or so.

Fuck off with this attitude. Do your absolute best every day and do everything your power to make your best today better than yesterday's.
