Dude thats impressive!....whats your workout routine?

BIG GRANT · 25-04-2008, 05:34 PM

VERY GOOD M8 KEEP IT UP.

Mrdaveyk · 25-04-2008, 06:00 PM

cheers guys, reps for you three as you guys are my main source of motivation as i train alone!

Monday - Chest/Triceps
Tuesday - Legs
Wednesday - off
Thursday - Shoulders
Friday - Back/Biceps
Saturday - off
Sunday - off

Chest
Flat Bench Press 4 sets
Incline bench press 2 sets (dumbbells)
Dumbell Flyes 2 sets

Back
Deadlift 3 sets
chin ups 3 sets
barbell Row 2 sets

Biceps
Standing Barbell Curls 3 sets
incline curls
and sometimes, ever other week i get a weight, about 10% more than i can curl one, use my other hand to lift him up and slowly let it down, gives one nice stretch!

Triceps
Dips (weighted) 3 sets
Skull Crusher
close grip press

Legs
Squats 4 sets with dumbbells to play safe
Leg Extension 3 sets
Seated/Standing Calve Raises 5 sets total (2 or 3 sets each way)

Shoulders
Seated Military Press (with dumbells) 4 sets
Lateral Raises 3 sets
Shrugs 3 sets

thats my routine although i may switch it round soon, i want to put my legs twice a week, so i may have to put legs monday and then thursday i just got to decided what i should mix the legs with on a thursday

oorr i could do them on a monday on their own and then on a thursday on their own meaning i workout 5 days a week rather than 4, my quads are coming alone but not up to par with the rest of me

im being very organized about my progress though, in the picture ive got a white board, you can see it in the back, i change it at the end of every day so i know exactly what to lift next week, something i was always vague about

Bulk1 · 25-04-2008, 07:31 PM

Keep up the good work mate.. :lift:

Mrdaveyk · 28-04-2008, 01:36 PM

hey guys, as mentioned i want to put abit more work on my legs

monday - legs
tuesday - chest, tris
wednesday - shoulders
thursday - legs
friday back, bis

what you guys think? my quads are coming on, even my misses has noticed, or as she said my head is getting smaller but my body is staying the same hehe

Mrdaveyk · 28-04-2008, 10:29 PM

11 stone 3lbs!

been stuck dead on or just under 11 stone for ages

hopefully this is the beginning of a positive trend!

Dave, Really solid progress there. That usually happens with a sticking point then once over it you will grow again for some time. Just make sure if you are growing on this routine to change it up in around 8-10 weeks time. doesn't have to be routine just change exercises.

Also remember rest periods and sleep are just as important (you know all this so i will shut up now and go apply some of that to myself

)

Anyway keep it up and eat big:beer1:

you a star cheers colin, reps for thee! hehe

being a student rest is not a problem! heheh

i am curious though, in a week or two i am going to change a few exercises to shake up my routine abit, however, as for bench press, changing from barbell to dumbbell, is that classed as a change?

bulkaholic · 29-04-2008, 06:35 PM

I would say changing dumbell to barbell would be a change as you will be recruiting some different fibres trying to stabilise etc. Maybe one of the more experienced members could comment on this.

Cheers

Colin

dru0111 · 29-04-2008, 06:57 PM

great progress mate, I am suprised that you can bench 20kg's more than you can squat?!

Mrdaveyk · 29-04-2008, 07:31 PM

my legs are crap mate!

im victim of the generation of 16 years olds who used to think training biceps and chest was all that was needed, only now, 4 years on am i training my legs hehe

they are catching up fast though
