Thread: Workout routine, please critique!!

    Workout routine, please critique!!

    Stats are:
    19
    6'2
    210 lbs
    11%bf
    My workout routine looks like this:

    Cardio ED
    45 mins. stairmaster every morning on empty stomach
    30 mins. stairmaster later in the evening

    day 1
    Bench 5x6reps
    Flys 3x8 reps

    day 2
    Deads 5x6 reps
    Rows 5x8 reps

    day 3
    Squats 5x8 reps

    usually take one or two days off weights a week, tring to get cut for summer. Also i take it easier on legs because of all the stairmastering im doing. Diet is 30-50g protein every 2 hours with either a fat or carb. lots of carb pre/post workout. any suggestions??

    well if it makes you feel any better about yourself that was just an estimate, im not anything special, just want some advice. Do you think its possible to sufficiently work my muscles using only 8-10 sets as heavy as i can go??

    I would do 1 body part per day for 3 different exercises, with 3 sets of 12-4-8-10-20 reps

    This looks like a powerlifting routine. You're gonna gain lots of strenght with this kind of routine. Just make sure to increase the load every workout.

    When you'll have a lot of strenght, try switching back to a bbing routine. This will shock your muscles.

    I say don't ditch the routine, try it and see how far you can go with it. Beware that you won't see a lot of 'size' gains. But don't be afraid because of that. This can be beneficial.

    Just my 0.02. Good luck.

    I suggest you wait longer before changing your routine. Just change it when you won't be progressing anymore. I think it is a mistake a lot of people do... They change their routine too often but never end up going to their full potential on a routine.

    Alright cool, also im in about week 3 of pct. i figured i should go heavy compound but not go buckwild on sets until my body is back to normal.
