I think there is a method using skin conductivity or something like that.

To Smallstar, I think you can gain noticable results in 30 days, just don't expect to look like Arnie or Stalone in that amount of time. Others recomended a trainer once a week, I think that is a good idea, especially if you haven't lifted weights much before. If you go this route, pay attention to what he says. Proper lifting 'form' isn't just about looking good, but it will also keep you from hurting yourself. A light aerobic warm-up/cool-down is also advisable. I'm not sure what supliments are available in Finland, but I would suggest avoiding them alltogether. The 'pro's' are usually juiced to the gills, which is how they got so big, but there are so many side-effects that it isn't worth it.
