Hey before you read let me tell you a little about my self.. I'm turning 16 on January 20, I'm 5 ' 7 135 lb, i play soccer all year round and right now I'm doing track (sprinting) for my training for the winter.. i run a lot
Since i have track we have practice everyday after school and we run at the least 20 minutes or sometimes hard leg workouts.. then I go to my school's gym 3 times a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday)
I read a lot of stuff online before seriously starting to workout 8 weeks ago and now i have some questions on my routine.. Also i read somewhere from a personal trainer (not a bullshit one) that running (interval training\cardio) before lifting (resistance training)is bad because it takes energy from your muscles and burns it making you lose muscle.. can someone tell me if this is true? if it is.. does it eat muscle mass (size) or muscle (strength)
now this is 8 weeks into my serious training so yeah.. (this weight is raised from when i first started 8 weeks ago i raise it every few weeks or week)
This is my usual workout.. (in this order)
3 sets Bench Press
95 x 10 reps, 105 x 6-7 reps, 115 x 3-4 reps
OR
3 sets of 10 chest workout (don't really know the name for this sorry)
3 sets of 10 lower chest workout
3 sets of 10 bicep curls (25 lb)
3 sets of 10 triceps pull downs (40 lb)
3 sets of 20 shoulders (5 lb) (i go from in front of my abs hands together to fully extended left to right.. its hard to explain sorry)
3 sets of ? forearms
SOMETIMES i do my back on the machines they have in school since I'm still young i was told i should not do them a lot and i have read online that machines are for body builders because they need isolated training and was told online to stay away from machines as much as possible which i try to do
On all of my workouts i try to go for the best form which i was taught by the coaches
finally at night everyday i do stuff before i go to sleep and after i eat
for example this is my workout one day of this week
(WEEK 7)
3-4 sets of 30 push ups (slow and i try to do the best correct form)
4 sets of 70 crunches
3 sets of timed 6-inch leg raises
and want to do Pull ups and chin ups.. do i need to do it every other day or can i can do them every day or if i do pull ups one day and chin ups the other day
also do packaged foods have a lot more fat in them?
Please tell me if my routine is good and what to change / add and stuff if I'm doing something wrong tell me please
(this routine seems pretty weak probably to you guys but I'm new to this)
also i don't do legs at the weight room because I'm in track and we do our own workouts for legs
1 last thing.. I CAN'T TAKE ANY SUPPLEMENTS.. not even whey protein so just letting ya know that..
THANK YOU SO MUCH
