How you doin guys? So I have recorded my workouts that I have been doing lately so you guys can critique it. I am cutting, so Im just keeping my lean muscle mass and getting rid of all the excess fat.I want my muscles toned and like I said get rid of the fat and I don`t really know the number of reps sets and the amount of weight etc. I should be using so hopefully you guys can help me out I work out at home and so I have a limited amount of exercises and when I join a gym(hopefully in the next few months)so when I do that I will change my workouts but until then I want to improve my current workouts.I have 50lbs of weight so I can`t really work my chest or legs all that well but again that will change when I join a gym.

Your routine actually looks pretty good for the most part. However, there are some things I would change:

I would do my heaviest exercises first. So, for example, on shoulder day you should be doing overhead pressing first. As well, deadlifts should be done before lunges.

I think you do too many sets for your biceps. 0-5 sets should be plenty. Remember, your biceps do a lot of work during compound pulling movements.

I think stiff legged deadlifts should be done on leg day. Yes, your lower back gets a workout, but your hamstrings and glutes should be taking more a beating.

You may want to consider performing these routines in a circuit so that you get a cardio workout when you lift weights too. This will help you burn up some extra calories and speed up your weightloss a bit.

You lack a vertical pulling movement. I think you should be doing chinups or pullups.

The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

Thanx CowPimp, I started with my heaviest reps first yesterday(50lbs bench press isn`t really heavy but anyway) I can lift alot more weight then that when I have been to the gym in the past(190-most I ever benched) and now I can`t wait to go in and see how much I can actually press as that was about 13 months ago,so exercising my chest with 50lbs doesn`t do much, thats why I do three exercises for it so at least I get a bit of a workout I have not had a pump in my chest since the day I went to the gym months ago, it SUCKS! so I don`t know whether or not to drop an exercise like you said or not? I totally agree with moving the stiff legged deadlifts to leg day I noticed it hits my glutes and calves more so thanx for that! When I do join a gym for good I am definitely going to do some pullups, but at the moment I just don`t have the equipment to do them.

Thanx for all your help!

Be interesting to see what experts think about the volume of the shoulder day. I'm not an expert, so I can't comment
