Forum: Workout Programs

Hi everyone I have been working out for 3 years. Had my fair share of injuries (right shoulder which made me go from barbell bench to dumbbell bench and made me stop for a good amount of months, and recently a right buttock injury which limited me for 6 months). I am back to my personal bests....

First post here so Hi. I started working out about 6 months ago. Over the last three months I done very little due to overtime in work but started again a month or so ago and I've been making no progress. To begin with I was doing well and making clear week on week improvements and even before...

I will start by defining what I mean by aesthetic: ''To say someone has an aesthetic body means their muscular proportions are symmetrical and balanced. They have built up their body in a way that is visually appealing.'' Are there any principles or workouts that are specific to aesthetic? ...

Alright so I have been training on and off kind of casually for my whole life. I have read a ton over the years, I have been given advice from personal trainers, read all kinds of magazine articles.. and I have more or less a grasp on what to do. Though I'm hoping to get a little guidance from the...

I am only available on Saturday, Sunday and Thursday. What body parts should I be doing for those 3 days? 5’9”, 160lbs in the morning after waking up. Smart scale has my BF% between 20%-23%. What can I do to add muscle mass without gaining BF%. Note: I also practice Semen Retention...

Some people claim that the only 3 exercises you need to develop your upper body if you're going to look like a classical Greek statue and be athletic are: DIPS + PRESS OVERHEAD + CHIN UPS. The only exception they mention is if you don't include for lower a deadlift that works your back enough,...

I’ve been working out since 1956. 12 years ago I was benching 475, it seems that after a heart ablation ( been suffering afib for about 40 years) the more I work out the more pain (shoulder/hip) I am experiencing. I have dropped down to benching 125, my pushups went to sets of 100 to sets of 10....

I'm new to learning about working out. It's a much more of deeper learning curve than I expected. There are a lot of acronyms I don't understand. Is this just a google search by google search journey to understanding or is there a post or video series I can view to catch myself up?

This question is based off an experience I had doing front raises for delts. I noticed my reps weren't going up at all. I used 10 pound dumbbells and I would always do 5 sets of 7. First 6 reps were easy 7th was challenging and I couldn't do an 8th. I know that sounds like a lie but I promise you...

So thanks to the forum members I have found out that my work out routine isn't very good. I've been going to the gym 7 days a week partly because I only have about one hour a day I can devote to the gym. As I'm redesigning my work out program I'm wondering how much of a problem only 1 hour is if...
