Thread: Is my workout good ?

    Is my workout good ?

    3-4 sets, 6-10 reps of 70-80% of your 1 rep maximum. Do it to failure. If you can do more than 10 the weight is too light.


    ----------------------------------------
    Warm 5-10 min run, no light jogs (your heart rate should be up)
    stretch all the muscles you will be using for 30s.

    about 2 minute rest

    Barbell Squats
    Pull ups (max pull ups for a minute)

    Deadlifts
    Leg Press

    Chest Press
    Lat Pull down

    (Use only use dumbells for this set)
    Bicep curls (curl in curl out, working different bicep muscles)
    skull crushers
    Lateral Flies

    Cool Down
    5 min jog, then stretch all the muscles worked for 30s

    This one was designed for me to gain weight
    currently I'm 140 pounds and 5'8.
    I'm still new to body building and for me its kinda like walking blindfolded. Before I got this I was doing every part of body separate and it was working good.

    My diet now is pretty solid I'm eating 6 times a day with low fats and every meal is 25 grams of protein and good amount of carbs

    Different people will have different opinions on others' workouts of course. It doesn't always mean the workout is good/bad. This is only one day out of a week? Or is this the same workout you are going to do 2-3x a week?? Honestly though, since you are new, go ahead and try it. At your height/weight and the fact that you are new to the gym, you will grow and get stronger on just about any workout in the beginning. Everyone's body is different. My advice is to do a routine for like a 4-6 weeks and pay attention to your body. Change your workout and pay attention. After some time, you'll know what works best for you and you'll be able to design your own program based on your goals at that time. For what it's worth, I'm more of a fan of doing 3-4 exercises per body part on a given day.

    I workout every other day so it means 4 times a week.

    I would drop it to 3xper. week to allow for more recovery. Maybe alternate the legpress and squats and deads. Just choose one each workout. Make sure your diet isn't too low in fat. Essential fats play a key role in your diet.
