Is this a normal routine?

[dirtyvegas]

I go to a pretty small gym. You see pretty much the same people everyday. One of the biggest guys I see around I happen to come across 3 days in a row. His routine:

BB Bench Press
Cable Bar Curls
Cable Bar Tri Pushdown

3 DAYS in a ROW?!??!?

Why would anyone work the same thing multiple days? Like I said he is one of the bigger guys in the gym so is there a method to his madness??

Do you go to the gym with this guy? http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=121417471



All joking aside, who knows why people do the things they do.

If it bothers you that much, ask him.

are you sure hes gaining size? I know a huge guy in my gym that is basically lifting to burn calories and maintanance, he doesn't care about gaining strength.

There is no method to that madness. Like previously stated, the person could just be burning calories. But other than that, doing the same thing everyday will not make you big.

Are you asking whether you should be using his routine since he's so huge, or merely commenting that a huge guy is not as hardcore as you?

Perhaps he works out in 9 different gyms in your area. Maybe he works out at home. Maybe he trains twice a day and does his other exercises at other times.

Don't worry about it.

I'm asking because he is pretty big and maybe it was an actual routine that I didn't know about.

I wouldn't be doing what he is doing, and I don't think he has found any secret routine. But I wouldn't be worrying about it either.

It's possible that in his mind, he's thinking he'll get more cut doing a lot more sets/reps for "x" amount of days... You should ask him the next time you see him and let us know!

When you say he's "huge" are you talking like body builder huge..... or are you taking about just purely big (fat) huge?

But FYI the "hyooOgest" guy at my gym actually looks like a body builder..... in fact he's the only guy that I've seen that remotely resembles a bodybuilder. I see him at the gym quite often and everytime I see him he's doing these 3 things:

> pushups with chains.
> poses in front of the mirror.
> standing around talking to people.

Dead serious.... how he got so jacked is beyond me.

He is not fat at all, think Reggie Bush but double the muscle.
