Alright flood, I need help getting super jacked before school starts. So are any of you into gyms and stuff. help me out m8s.

Take lots of steroids

I don't want my peepee to break off though.

Work out for at least an hour a day (4 times a week, or more) and consume something like 150 more calories a day than you normally would.

Watch people like hodge twins, six pack shortcuts if you're just starting out.  You'll learn basic workout routines and in time you'll learn what works best for you. It's all about experience, no faggot on the internet will know what works best for your body only you will.

In all seriousness OP give me your

Height
weight
age
goals

And put a pic of your body or pm me(pic is optional lol) and i'll assist you

It really depends where you're at now OP.  Do you have a lot of fat to lose or are you low body fat looking to put on muscle?

Low body fat

Yeah bruh you're not going to build a lot of muscle in a month, and since I'm guessing you have no experience you probably won't build any in that time. It takes a while for people to get into a workout routine and you only really start putting on muscle when you start upping your weight or reps.

But I'll say you can probably clean bulk which would let you stay cut while trying to build muscle. That's the best you can probably do and it's a little complicated. It's diet more than anything. I need a little more info though.

I put on 15 lbs of muscle in a month. It's not impossible, it just takes a fuck load of drive. In the gym everyday and shit, I'm sure you know the drill.

Though, that was before I became a vegan where meat was still an option, lol.

You didn't gain 3.75 lbs of muscle a week.  That's more than steroid users make.  It was likely a combination of muscle, glycogen, water weight, and fat.

Alright I can tell by this alone that you don't know much about making gains, which is alright since everyone starts from scratch. You didn't gain 15 lb of muslce, period. And if you're in the gym everyday you're probably overdoing it and just going catabolic. The key to building muscle is to keep the reps low, weight high, and to recover.
If I were you I'd probably do four days in the gym a week. My split has me at five but I've been doing this for a while.
Just focus on exercises, split, diet, and form.

You're right, I misspoke. I did put on 15 lbs in that month, though.

That's alright, I just didn't want op to get any unrealistic expectations and kill himself in the gym.

That'd be sad and hilarious for some reason.

This is true. I never used to work out, as my gymnastics background took care of my physicality pretty well. When I stopped doing that I lost a lot of weight, so I thought I'd make up for it at the gym.

I mean, I may not have been doing it right. But I got decent results.

No, I misspoke. 15 lbs gained, not pure muscle.

"Every day" being every week day, with mild jogging and push-ups on the weekends.

Yup, that's what I was doing.

Oh, so I guess you do have a good foundation on this. But yeah I think the most you can get out of this time is a clean bulk which will add more fat than muscle (but that's usually how it goes unless you're on roids). If I were you I'd start training for the spring.

Work out for at least an hour a day (4 times a week, or more) and consume something like 150 more calories a day than you normally would.

yup this. If you want to get mass, then do more body building exercises than power lifting ones.

Make sure you take recovery days
Don't fucking slam 6 days a week at the gym
Let your muscles rest and grow

Recovery sucks but I'd rather kill myself than lose my gainz

Oh and do your research
Make sure you read up on proper form and etiquette

aren't you like 13?

Honestly, just read the /r/fitness FAQ. Lots of good stuff in there. But if I had to summarize...

Eat a lot. Make sure you're meeting a decent protein requirement, the general rule given is (0.82) * (Body weight in lbs) = (Grams of protein needed per day to induce optimal muscle growth). Use online TDEE calculators to properly track where you should be aiming to put your caloric surplus at. The ones included in the /rfitness FAQ are very reliable. Bulking and cutting durations are totally up to you. I bulk for seven months, cut for three, then maintain for two. Work out for somewhere between an hour and two a day, but really the duration isn't the key, it's the volume (Which can vary substantially). I'd say if you're gonna do two groups of muscles a day (Back/Bi, Chest/Tri, Legs/Shoulders - Although some split legs and shoulders or pair them differently), do four or five exercises per primary muscle group. Make sure to be doing compound movements as well as isolation exercises.

Explanations for proper form on lifts are useless, you should watch Youtube videos demonstrating how to perform them. B.U.F.F. Dudes' channel has a lot of great video tutorials. For the love of God, make sure you're doing them correctly, otherwise you'll fuck yourself over. Get a good night's sleep; take a multivitamin (Nothing to do with lifts, really, but I recommend it just for your health), and understand that we all have to start somewhere. Don't be embarrassed because you're not as big and strong as others in the gym.

I mean, honestly, that alone will get you pretty far. There are many other aspects to fitness, health, and lifting, but eating high-protein foods and lifting heavy is what allowed me to gain fifty pounds over the course of almost a year. It's been two years since I started lifting, and many of my lifts are either double or triple their starting weights. Be patient, don't sacrifice form to push that extra few pounds, because it makes a substantial difference that could cost you weeks or months out of the gym due to an injury.

Good luck, do your research, and enjoy your gains.

"Fifteen pounds of muscle in a month."

Ha, no you didn't dude.

Ha, I know. I've stated 4 times that I misspoke.
