Lets Exercise
I might as well try this online journal thing. Who knows? It might help me with everyone's advice.
Week 1 8:30 of running Hammer Curls - 2 sets of 20 1 set of 10 Concentration Curls - 1 set of 20 1 set of 10 Over head Triceps Extension - 1 set of 20 Shoulders ( I forgot what they are called but you raise the dumbbells up until they are parallel to the floor) - 1 set of 11 Dumbbell Floor Bench - 1 set of 11 Curls - 1 set of 25 Bicycle Curls - 1 set of 25 Leg Tucks - 1 set of 25 Frog Squats - 1 set of 25 Dumbbell Floor Fly - 1 set of 11 Obliques - 1 set of 25 Leg Raises - 1 set of 25 Lunges - 1 set of 25 Planks - 2 sets of 40 seconds Good - Starting to form quads  . Stomach is getting harder and moving inwards  . I can see my obliques forming  .Bad - Legs hurt from leg exercises  and planks hurt way to much  Please post any additional exercises I can do and any improvement I can make. Plus Should I mix it up or train one muscle then the next and then the next? In other words should I do all Bicep, then all Triceps, and then all abs or some Biceps, then some Triceps, then some abs and just continue that repetition? |

It sounds like you would benefit from reading the stickies and forming a game plan.
Why don't you post what your goals are and maybe we can help you figure out how to get there. Peace! |

You don't appear to be clear on the concept. You are unlikely to trim flab while building muscle, and you are unlikely to build muscle while trimming flab.
What is your diet?
Wondering where to start? Confused? This will get you started.

Regular stuff, eat protein 2 hours before workout. No supplements are anything. Plus I do abs and muscles separately, so I guess that shouldn't be a problem. Abs and other exercises (without any weights) 6 times a week and muscles only 4 times a week.

"Regular stuff" means nothing to me.

New schedule
Hammer Curls - 1 set of 10
Concentration Curls - 1 set of 10 Bicep Curls - 1 set of 10 Standing Zottman Dumbbell Curls - 1 set of 7 Over head Triceps Extension - 1 set of 10 Standing Single Arm Dumbbell Extensions - 1 set of 10 Standing Two Arm Dumbbell Extensions - 1 set of 3 One Arm Front Deltoid Dumbbell Raises- 1 set of 10 Dumbbell Floor Fly - 1 set of 10 Dumbbell Floor Bench - 1 set of 10 Curls - 1 set of 15 Bicycle Curls - 1 set of 15 Leg Tucks - 1 set of 15 Obliques - 1 set of 15 Leg Raises - 1 set of 15 Frog Squats - 1 set of 15 Lunges - 1 set of 15 Planks - 1 set of 35 seconds I know this is a weird change but I want to start off fresh now that I know the different type of workouts. What sucks is, I currently have a broken treadmill and I am too lazy to run outside.  Can anyone recommend a treadmill? Preferably it should be from Modell's, since that is where I would like to buy it. |

Why is running on a treadmill important to you?
Your workouts leave much to be desired.

Infinitrix, you need to do some reading so you can define your goals and then set out a plan to achieve them.
Right now your goals and your plans are all over the place.

Hey, all you guys are over 20 and I'm still in my teens! I just want to experiment and see what works for me. I'll keep the current schedule I have now. Even if it does take a long time for change, gradual is better than immediate. In other words Built, I will keep this schedule and build upon it, adding new exercises and reps. If you can please help since that site you gave me, Webfit was a real help. THXZ!!

Bud, I have some stuff on my blog that might help you get up to speed a bit.
How about you do some reading, formulate a plan, then post up your game plan for critique? Got Built? » Open Source Fitness - Get started here Start at the top and work your way down.

Thanks again built. What do you think of my new schedule? I started reading a little and got this as a result. I am currently working on Muscle hypertrophy. I'll do that for a good 6 weeks. Making sure I alternate every two cycles. I'm a little confused on dieting. There is so much to consider but I guess after a little experimenting, I should be able to find the right one for me.
Another question.........should I do all of one muscle exercise in a row or mix it up a bit? For example, all bicep, all triceps, all pectorals or bicep, triceps, shoulder, bicep, shoulder, triceps? |
