This was an OK day - Our schedule got messed up here, so I am going to take 2 days off and then resume my workout with an arms day. I need to get back in sync with Angela.

A-1: BB bench press...

No knee soreness today. Infact all the weighhts were very easy so I upped them all. Some a lot. I also took out the abs and added deadlifts. I think I am going to take the day off when I normally due...

Now I obviosly am a beginer...I want overall strenght for a base. Now I can not go to the gym for an hour plus, so I have been doing 6 days. I only do 4 exercises a day. All compound. Mostly 5X5 or...

I have been doing a lot of reading.

I see a lot of people recommending full body 3 days a week - say MWF

I also see people recommending upper lower like Mon Thurs & Tues Fri

I am really...

A-2: glute/ham raise 5X5 35# assist
B-1: BB standing calf raise 2x5 - 140#

I am new too, and if I am in a gym and hear someone having a screaming orgasm every lift they do, I can still hear it. It will still annoy me as much when I am new as when I am a veteran.

well I was reading the 5X5 workout article on here and it says to alternate.

Like they do A1: bench A2: BB row - and then they alterate A1,A2,A1,A2...

OK I am doing an upper/lower split - I work out at about 7pm

I want to add in some HIIT - probably stationary bike or running.

Not sure when I should add this in. Do I do this on leg days or...

A-2: bent over row 5X5 - 110# BB
B-2: triceps pushdown...

OK - well I have been doing DB squats up to this point since I have not rack or any other equipment, but it seems as my gym (which sucks) does not have any more weights that I can put on the DBs. So...

I was surprise how sore Angela and I both got from just doing simple butt lifts 3X20 - maybe because we are newbies.

OK - Well Ang actually gained 17 pounds in 2 1/2 months.... she is so dramatic.

I also gained 21 in the same 2 1/2 months.

I told her most of this was because we were on a very VERY low calorie...
