Thread: What routine makes you feel amazing?

Back. Since I learned the proper way to perform barball rows I feel AWESOME after doing them.

You mean type of work out? I guess HIT even though it makes me want to puke the results make me feel great.

Lat pulldows. when im done with that im looking all bruce lee and shit.

Heavy squats. I'm nursing a psoas injury right now and I'm off heavy squats, so mostly this is nostalgia.

pull ups,deadlifts and standing shoulder press

it would be the shoulders for me

I don't have a particular body part I enjoy training the most, or get the most satisfaction from training. I get satisfaction from training my calves to my traps, and everything in between.

Same for a routine, all a method to my madness.

Not one routine stands out for me. They all make me feel good right after... unless, I failed to do what I intended to do for that day.

A great squat workout, beginning with fronts, then backs. Throw some lunges into the mix with some lying leg curls, I'm wearing a simile for hours.

BACK. My strongest muscle group. Makes me feel good pulling heavy ass weight towards my body.

I never feel amazing after a routine or workout I always feel like shit, on the verge of blacking out, vomiting, collapsing or going on a adrenaline filled blood bath. Never amazing this shit ain't meant to be fun or feel god its meant to hurt and get you swole. No pain no gain baby!!

But if we take pain to be good which i do then i guess legs, back or delts nothing like a 10 part drop set on any of those bad boys.

Biceps.

When they're full and swole it's a pretty impressive feeling IMO.

Get out ! lol

Legs day.
Training without a squat rack I get to clean the bar every time I need to squat, do lunges or calf raises

shoulders for me and don't forget my favourite exercise - front close grip pulldown.

I feel like ronnie when I do that one.....lol

I do three types of workouts
cardio
weights
and bikram yoga

I love how they all make me feel and dont think I COULD choose just one... but if I had to I think it would be my cardio.
I know chalk me up to nuts but I love it!
I wake up early and hit an hour on my elliptical keeping my heart rate in the 160 ish range
wakes me up
gets blood and feel good chemicals flowing
clears my head and makes me feel good all day

True, nicely said!

some sort of cluster training seems to be working well for me, sort of like myo reps/dc training, but definitely shorter more intense workouts rather than marathon loads of sets per bodypart type workouts

I love every day that I step in the gym, they all make me feel alive.

Love me some legs. The feeling of wanting puke and fall over when I am done lets me know that I had an awesome workout and it's all good after that! I feel amazing when on a Friday or Sunday morning I am the only one within 50 feet of the legs section.

I've found that heavy squats followed by some light incline treadmill cardio is near orgasmic.

anything thats NOT cardio.....

You know what else is good at the end of legs. Try the stationary bike at a slow pace using a very high resistance for 5 minutes. I don't usually see veins in my quads, but after this they get nice and pumped. Nice cool down and floods the muscles with blood nicely. When I get off the bike I can barely stand.
