u know im retarded im talking bout sum step by step stuff like how much cardio and what type of compound movements or can u point to a good workout
ill break it down roughly what im doing
cardio: do 30-45min at moderate intensity 3-4 days a week
lifts: Flat bench, Row(using a bench), Curls, Lat Pulldown(if have machine), Shoulder Press, Upright row, Lunges, Stiff Leg Deadlifts, Dips(if have equipment, otherwise pushups at the end of workout til failure), Chinups (if have equipment)
look them up here
http://www.exrx.net/Lists/Directory.html you can find form and everything
if you can, get a pull up bar rather than the lat pull downs. If you cant do dips or chins > do pushups and lat pull down.
Before you start, figure out whats the heaviest weight you can push/pull for each exercise for 8 reps. Whatever that weight is the last work set will be the weight two settings less than this.
Workout A
Flat Bench - Sets 4 - Reps 8, 6, 6, 4
Row - Sets 4 - Reps 8, 6, 6, 4
Curls(each arm) - Sets 4 - Reps 8, 6, 6, 4
Lunges(each leg) Sets 4 - Reps 8, 6, 6, 4
Dips/Pushups - Sets as many as you can - Reps til Failure
Workout B
Shoulder Press Sets 4 - Reps 8, 6, 6, 4
Stiff Leg Deadlift Sets 4 - Reps 8, 6, 6, 4
Upright Row Sets 4 - Reps 8, 6, 6, 4
Lunges(each leg) Sets 4 - Reps 8, 6, 6, 4
Chinups/Lat Pull down - Sets as many as you can - Reps til failure
Rotate doing Workout A and B every other day (so one week you may have 3 workouts the next will be 4 and so forth)
Progression:
the last set needs to be the second to last heaviest weight you can do. The first set should be 15-20lbs less than this. If the first workout is too light, increase the weight across the board and do it again the next time in. Once you know your starting point go ahead and write down where youre supposed to be at for each workout going in. Dont do it arbitrarily, set the goal and push the weight. If you are not feeling it by the end increase the
warmup sets first
Upon completing a workout, add 2 reps to the second set. Once complete add a new set of 4
Keep adding 2 reps to each set until you have 8 > 8 > 8 > 8 > 6 > 4
eventually you will have 6-7 sets of 8. Every 2 weeks increase the weight of the first set to the weight of the second and then the first and second to the third
Example
Week 1
20lb > 25lb > 30lb > 35lb
Week 3
25lb > 25lb > 30lb > 35lb > 40lb
Week 5
30lb > 30lb > 30lb > 35lb > 40lb > 45lb
Week 7
35lb > 35lb > 35lb > 35lb > 40lb > 45 lb > 50lb
Week 9
40lb > 40lb > 40lb > 40lb > 40lb > 45lb > 50lb(maxed out on weight)
and then increase to 45, then to 50 on the following weeks
So at any given time you are adding weight and reps to the routine. Once you are banging out 50lbs on everything its time to find a new routine or add more reps on and push it to 10, 12 etc. Ive found that 8 is a nice sweet spot.
