Just a quick thank you to the forum

[Gtiracer]

In the short time i have been registered here i have realised the main errors of my ways (obviously things can still be improved) picked a fantastic routine and im eating horses for lunch not letting myself have an empty stomach while im awake.

All i can say is i've been doing it this way for 2 weeks and have seen fantastic gains in myself for this short period of time. so thank you.



Also does anyone think this is overtraining my tri's, i like to keep my workouts heavy and simple but don't know if this would work out too many sets for that muscle group


5 x 5 Skull Crushers
5 x 5 Weighted dips

the 5 sets mentioned don't include my warm up sets to build up to the weight i am using

Your tricep routine is similar to one used by a few guys on here. I'm known for favouring HIT methods, but even so, I'd perhaps consider doing your 5x5 for each exercise including the preceeding warm up sets, not in addition, pyramiding up to a final heavy set.

For most people that would be too much for tris (on a long-term basis), especially if you are doing heavy compounds for chest and shoulders (as these hit the tris hard too).

What does the rest of your routine look like?

This may sound like im stupid but i leave my routine at the gym so may not be able to remember it exactly

Gym 3 times a week

Day 1 (Chest and Tri's)
DB Bench Press 5 x 5
Db Flys 5 x 5

Skull Crushers 5 x 5
Weighted dips 5 x 5


Day 2 (Legs)
Front Squats 5 x 5
Leg extension 5 x 5
Calf Raises 5 x 5

Day 3 (Back/Shoulders - Bi's every Fortnight)

Barbell Rows 5 x 5
Barbell Shoulder Shurgs 5 x 5

E Z Bar Curls 3 x 3 (Every two weeks)




Something like that anyway

Also forgot to say i am a bit limited for the variation of excercises that i can do because where i go there isn't much equipment at all, just a bench and some freeweights, i improvised a squat rack which is working quite well
