I went through the routine, really crazily tiring workout. i ended up spending an hour and 15 minutes in the gym. is that too much?

Usually the 8 rep weeks can be done in 45 minutes and the 12 rep weeks right at an hour.Originally Posted by Flexasian
Unless you are doing warm ups for all the lifts. They are only required for the first 3. Some people make the mistake of doing 4 work sets for the lifts they don't have to warm up to. All lifts are 2 work sets except the first 3 that have 2 warm ups as well.
And don't take more than a minute 30 rest. between sets.
You do all this right, and you shouldn't be in the gym for more than an hour.

Seems a little long go me, but then again I work out at home so I don't have to wait on anything or anyone...on the long 12 rep days It usually took me about 45-50 minutes! On the 8 rep days I was done in 35-40 minutes!
Remember warmups are only for the first 3 exercises...squats, bench & BOR! Rest 90 seconds in between work sets...doesn't matter how long between warmup sets!

All excercises have 2 working sets. The 1st 3 excercises have two warm up sets in addition to the working sets,Originally Posted by Flexasian

5 years and 20,000 posts later and you have found the fatal flaw of all pros beginner program. Do you want to tell all pro or should I?Originally Posted by Flexasian
