First of all I was reading in the cardio that you may not to workout on a emply stomach because your body will burn muscle too? I like to jog in the morning.

Second question, please look at my workout schedule and let me know what ya think.

Monday:chest+back
tue:abs, foreams, cardio
wed:shoulders legs
thur: same as tue
friday: arms bis and tri's.
sat and sun are off. I try to let my muscles heal for 24 hours before lifting hard again.

And third, after chest workouts my tri's feel like they did most of the work. Am I holding the bar to close?

thanks

first of all, give us some stats and your goals, are you just looking to trim down or are you entering a comp. with the right info we'll get ya squared away in no time.
second you could be holding it a bit to close, try and really focus on squeezing your chest, try and crush a walnut in between your tits.:lol:

Thanks, I will try to hold my grib further apart. I am looking to trim down, I have a beer belly and I am sick of it. I would also like to get more cut. I do reps of 10-12 on every excerise. Should I do higher to get more cut?

Welcome bro, here you'll find all the answers you need, always be sure to state your goal so we can better assist you. let me see i fI can answe your questions

First of all I was reading in the cardio that you may not to workout on a emply stomach because your body will burn muscle too? I like to jog in the morning.You should never workout on an empty stomach always have some carbs at least 1 hour before working out th enorm is 100grams of carbs (ultra fuel) if your not prepping for a competition, and bro do not jog. running burns muscles. the cardio you read about, we all were talking about walking

Second question, please look at my workout schedule and let me know what ya think.

Monday:chest+back
tue:abs, foreams, cardio
wed:shoulders legs
thur: same as tue
friday: arms bis and tri's.
sat and sun are off. I try to let my muscles heal for 24 hours before lifting hard again.When it comes to workout I believe to each his own, whatever works for you however I'm a big fan of working large muscle together with small muscles i.e. chest/tri's and back/bi's those small groups are the secondary muscles being worked so why not just continue while they are well warmed up with just 2 exercises.

And third, after chest workouts my tri's feel like they did most of the work. Am I holding the bar to close?

thanksIt sound as if you are indeed holding the bar too close. try a wider grip. the tri's are the secondary muscles at work here this is the reason why I stated to work the tri's with chest

Should I do higher to get more cut?the most important thing thats going to impact whether you get cut is your diet. thats 60% of the equation

MrMent1on, thanks for the advice and tips. I will quit jogging, what about the cycle in the gym? Shouldn't that burn fat and build leg muscle? I will watch my diet more, but if I am watching my diet will reps to 12 get me cut?
