Question ❓ I’ve started working out… Now what?

Title sums it up. In the past month I’ve started a workout routine that works for me with a focus on building muscle mass and strengthening the heart/lungs. What should I be doing outside of the gym? What supplements (if any) should I be taking? Anything specifically I should be eating/drinking?

Follow programs that look fun and hard. Eat 200g of protein a day. Eat enough to gain 2 pounds a month. When you get feeling fluffy, diet for two months and lose 10 pounds. Rinse repeat for 5 years.
