Day Two: Why all the machines? Dumbbell Bench Presses and Shoulder Presses are much better and will you develop more strength and coordination. Tricep Pushdowns or Overhead Dumbbell Extensions are again better than a tricep machine exercise. I think this was given to you by a trainer? Fire him or her or tell them to get you off the machines. You are not a 95 pound weakling. |

I think what they were saying is i do that for 5 weeks then change it from then. Just to build me a solid foundation. |

It seems like a cookie cutter program to me, but if you want to trust them, go ahead. I'm 45 now. When I started training, I was a 21 year old 5'6' 115 pound thin weakling, and the first routine they put me on was almost all free weights. |

hi aussiegoonie, you are very similar stats to myself, 5'11, 72kg (158lb) but im 10%bf. i started out a couple of months ago and did twice a week, doing a routine for the whole body. when i started, i was 64kg but still low in the bf%. im unable to go to the gym more than twice a week due to taekwondo training and motorcycle racing.
i've started a similar routine to what you have put (but less machines), with chest/shoulders/tri's on day 1, and back/legs/bi's on day 2. i'm hoping i can hit each muscle group very hard seeing as i will only be hitting them once a week! good luck ![]() |
