Its been awhile since I hit the gym and last posted(over a year) and it shows. I need to get back cuz, the Mrs commented I'm getting soft, and my pants dont fit.
I'd like to get some opinions on a routine. I'm not looking to concentrate on weight loss during the first split, so cardio will be kept to minimun. Some interval training once a week.
I'm going to stick with basic movements to start out, employing 3 sets of 5 reps, choosing a weight that causes me to work to near failure in the last set, unless otherwise noted.
Monday:
Bench- 3 sets 5 reps
Chins- 3 sets, I'll adjust the reps and work to failure on each set.
Dumbell rows- 3 sets 5 reps
Wednesday:
Military Press/Behind neck- 3 sets 5 reps
Barbell Curls- 3 sets 5 reps
Dips- 3 sets work to failure on each set
Wrist curls- 3 sets 5 reps.
Friday:
Squats- 3 sets 5 reps
Incline sit ups- 3 sets each to failure
Crunches- 1 set to failure
Sunday: Cardio involves a brisk walk in the woods, and running up hills on trails.
My Diet will be nothing fancy, just trying to keep quality proteins to a max. I'll be using an MRP to make that an easier task. I'll try to eat smaller meals on a 4-6 times a day basis. I should lose enough weight just by eating better and uping the activity level. Hopefully, I wont bust any more buttons on the pants.
Any ideas on how I can improve the program would be appreciated.
Thanks!
