What Are The Right Exercises And Diet For 18 Year Old?

Hey. I'm 18 years old and I'm "skinny". I weight around 150 lbs and I've recently started working out at home.
So my question is:
Is 30 push ups a day good enough for me to get a good looking chest? I'm not looking for really big chests, only good looking ones, or you could say average. Get it? :)

Hello.

Welcome to Healthcare magic . Thank you for posting your query.
I get it.

Have a balanced diet with plenty of vegetables.

Have 4-5 fruits a day. Drink loads of water.
Increase caloric intake - of the healthy kind ofcourse. So those bananas count well here.

Chew the food properly to improve digestion.

Keep a track of your weight gain as this is essential; it is healthy to increase approximately 5 to 6 kgs weight per month.

30 pushups - start off and then increase it gradually. That would be good enough .

The right combination of healthy food, exercise, right breathing, rest and sleep go a long way in a happier and healthier you.

Hope this helps.
Have a nice day.
Regards.
