Thread: New workout ideas....

Hi all, I have been using the following routine for several months & feel i need to really mix things up a bit.

I'm 5ft 11 & 168lbs with around 12% bf

Training for 4 days per week 1hr sessions:

Current routine:

Session 1: Biceps Triceps
Skull Crushers
Dips
Overhead rope tricep ext or V-Bar push down
EZ bar curls
seated Hammer curls
reverse grip ez-bar curls or preacher curls
Hanging knee raises

Session 2: Shoulders & Legs
Seated Shoulder Press
Dumbbell Lat raise & Front Raise
Squats
Leg raises
Calf raises
Hanging knee raises

Session 3:Chest & Back
Bench Press
Cable Cross over
Incline press
Dead Lift
Reverse fly
Seated Row
Hanging leg raise


I quite fancy now changing to possibly a full body workout for each of the four days (Monday, Wednesday, Friday & Sunday), something like the following:
session 1:
Squats
bench press
dips
pull ups
lying leg raises


Session 2
deadlifts
Seated shoulder DB press
Cable crossovers
V bar tricep pushdowns
Hanging leg raises

Session 3
Squats
Incline bench press
Seated rows
Pull ups

Session 4
Deadlifts
Lying dumbell flyes
Laeral raises/front raises
Chin ups
Lying leg raises


All advice welcome...cheers
