first i wanna say this is a really cool site....
but anyways down to business...
i just got a gym membership two months ago and started working out seriously and i have read a lot of stuff about nutrition and different workout routines and decided to create my own and see how effective it was....i wanted to make it a high intensity workout that is for building muscle with a muscle building diet and then worry about losing the body fat...
i split up my routine into just two days alternating on ever other day of the week...my bad if i dont know the right names for all of the excercises ill try my best to explain what im doing
DAY 1-
**CHEST-
bench press- 3x10,8.6
decline press- 2x10,8
fly's- 3x10,10,8
**TRICEP-
standing tricep extension- 3x10,10,8 (standing up with my back against the machine will pushing down the bar in front of me downward)
overhead tricep extension- 3x10,10,8(slightly bent forward while pushing the bar over my head)
dips-3xburnout
**LEGS-
leg curl- 3x10,10,8
leg extension- 3x10,10,8
calf- 3x20,20,15
what else should i do for my legs? need some stuff for inner and outer thigh i think
DAY2-
**SHOULDERS-
overhead shoulder press- 3x10,10,burnout
lateral shoulder raises- 3x10,10,burnout
chin raises- 3x10,10,burnout (i take a 45lbs weight and pull it up to my chin)
i do the overhead press once, then the lateral raise once, then the chin raise once...then rest and repeat until ive done 3 sets of each...pretty effective for my shoulders...do i need to do some stuff for the front of my shoulders?
**BICEPS (having tons of trouble finding good excercises)
barbell curls using the kinked bar- 3x10,10,8 (gonna switch to flat bar since i read a post on it)
dumbel curls- 3x10,10,8
hammer curls- 3x10,10,8
i need a lot of help with my workout but i especially need to figure some stuff out for biceps it feels like im not even working them at all...
**BACK
for my back i just go down the row of machines and work from my upper back to my lower back and do 3x10,10,8
each time i go down in reps i make sure to raise the weight...
EVERY COUPLE DAYS
**ABS
crunches- 5x15 ...slow and controlled
oblique crunches- 5x15
i have pretty weak abs so its hard to do the oblique crunches but the normal crunches are getting a lot easier..
**CARDIO
i play bball for cardio and i found out it works great for me
EVERY DAY
**DIET
i just make sure i eat plenty of protein...not taking any supplements at the moment and i make sure i dont eat too much fatty stuff
**STRETCHING
i do a full body stretch every morning just to try and stay flexible
so...as u can see i need a lot of advice and would greatly appreciate any input...like everyone else i want to build a strong muscular body..thx for ur time!
