I have a new job this summer, in which I'll be doing physical labor for about 10 hours a day (landscaping). Will it be unhealthy for me to workout also during the day or should I just count that as my workout?
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

landscapers have huge forearms, but i hardly ever seen buff ones. I've only ever seen buff ones on tv. Should u work out? I'd say so if you wanna get big.

It's not like lifting rocks, but digging holes. Its with an irrigation group, so I'll be digging holes. I figure my triceps will grow a lot, and my shoulders. Im gonna drink 3 protein shakes a day. Ill probably mix some carbs in there too, for energy. Any suggestions?
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
You wont get bigger at all. Long, hard, stenuous labour doesn't do anything except make you more scrawny and endure more. It will be hard to get big and have a physical job, you would have to eat a lot.
You may want to invest in weight gainer/meal replacements to up your calories as much as possible.

yea you will burn a TON of calories. So the key is going to be eating atleast 4,000 calories a day, honestly. Its tough enough gaining muscle/weight when you are just trying to eat every 2-3 hours, almost joblike. With this type of job you will have you will need to eat a ton of calories, but I say if you can do that daily then YOU will decide how well working out goes. You can work out and get big while having a job like you will be having, but it all depends on how you stay with it. It will ne tough, but just look at it like you are looking forward to your workout everyday, it should pass the time better and keep you motivated. Its all a mind game, and the game is tricking your mind into doing what you want it to do.
You should have no worries about your job effecting your muscle growth, unless your job begins to effect your amount of sleep, your diet, or your motivation to get in the gym 4-5 days a week

It'll be pretty damn hard to bulk up while doing that amount of labor.
But why worry about it man? You'll learn a lot about landscaping, and you'll definately keep in shape. You might not be bulked up, but you'll definately be lean and cut (keep on lifting as much as you can still).
After summer is over, start a bulking plan.
I am naturally around 150-160, and I currently am trying to get bigger.
But in this next year, I would like to train for a triatholon, just for the hell of it. I know that my weight lifting is going to change dramatically and so will my body. I'll be going from bulky to a thinner, leaner look. But, it will be cool anyway.
