Forum: Workout Programs

Hello everyone. I'm very scared about posting here, I hope it's OK. I'm male, 24 years old, 178cm / 5.8 and I currently weigh 160KG/ 352 pounds. I've been overweight/obese my whole life, but it's been getting worse and worse. I want to change. I started Rehabilitation for my Mental...

Hey bros, For up to a six month period, I will be traveling in my vehicle. Though I’ve looked at hitched based power racks, I’ve decided against this and have settled on not taking a rack or barbell with me. Instead, I’ll have: -10lb, 25lb, 45lb plates (should I get a 90?) -35lb kettlebell...

Hello all From the UK and we are back into lockdown so looking for a full body workout to do 3-4days a week. I haven’t trained regularly for a while and my workouts are very bland and I never see progress. I have a decent amount of equipment that I have built up over time: Rack,...

I have a decent experience at gym, my lifts are like this: BP 120kg x 5 Squat 150kg x 5 DL 180kg x 5 However, as I'm crossing a 30y old mark, I started to be more concious about health. I'm not enjoying 5x a week heavy (5 rep max) workouts anymore. I've been lifting according to MAX-OT...

2018 we had a squat thread, goal 10,000,000. We got almost 4,500,000 that year if I remember right. This year, all free weight squats count: barbell, dumbbell, kettlebell, water bottles, bricks, backpack full of books, concrete plates, heavy pole, or anything you've got to squat. Just weigh it...

Never feel fatigue or DOMs outside the gym. I do get bad days on occasion but not feeling like chit. I train full body 3x a week. For most lifts, I just do 3 sets of 8-10 reps. Never had issues increasing reps or adding in weight to the bar weekly. Any reason why I *shouldn't* take a rest...

I notice some people do push, pull and leg splits. It makes sense, but I've been doing Back and Triceps together. I get a much better workout in my triceps that way. And my biceps still feel worked. When I do biceps after back, I can't really do quality bicep work because they're fatigued. So the...

What’s up everyone? I have fell off the wagon for a while now and I am trying to get back on my horse so to speak. Today I trained using one exercise just smoking my upper body. Has this approach with enough effort, volume etc.. been more successful than the use of multiple exercises for some?...

So I'm trying to decide which routine is better, 1. Or 2. 1. full body 3x a week: WORKOUT A: Bench press 3 sets Squat 3 sets

I was thinking about something. When I train chest, I always do the heaviest exercise first the lighter one second and the lightest and easiest one last. I start with bench 4x8, then incline bench 4x8, and as a last exercise i do cable press 3x12. Now the cable press is the exercise where you...

Recently I’ve been using front squats in place of back squats as my main movement due to less spinal loading, same stimulus, better torso angle etc. I’m looking for an assistance movement to help drive it up. My first choice was goblet squats but my gym doesn’t have dumbbells that are heavy enough....

I'm currently running all pro's program which sets out for you to add 10% to the lift once I've hit all the desired sets/reps Its set out like this The first week do all 4 sets for 8 reps. The second week do all 4 sets for 9 reps. The third week do all 4 sets for 10 reps. The fourth week...

So as some of you know, it only takes just a few high quality sets for a muscle to get most of the stimulus in a training session needed to grow. Say 3 hard sets for a muscle group to reach I don't know...90% of potential growth. The thing is that you're sacrificing recovery time to reach that...

Hey guys, I've got a home gym setup using a power tower, and I've seen results with arms, back, chest, abs. I've upped protein intake. BUT the scale shows I'm losing weight! As an ectomorphy/hard gainer, I hardly have any body fat to begin with, otherwise that'd be my guess, but I cannot...
