My workout plan....
Diet is high protein, low carbs.
Day 1 - legs Leg extension 1x20,3x15 Leg curls - 1x20, 3x15 Stiff leg dead lift - 3x15 Crunch - 4x25 Day 2 - Chest and biceps Dumbell Fly - 3x15 Bench - 3x15 Iso curls - 3x15 machine fly - 3x10 Day 3 - cardio only Day 4 - Back Wide grip chins - 5x10 DB row - 3x10 seated row - 3x10 Day 5 - triceps (delts/traps, but, i dont have equipment and mom wont geton the phone with the gym because... fuck if i know, ive only been asking everyday for 2 weeks) Pressdowns - 3x15 Frenchcurls - 3x15 Kickbacks - 3x10 Day 6 - Cardio only Day 7 - Toileth noteth, on this holy day! Im doing lighter weights, more reps... Was thinking about going heavier weights, less reps. i do 15-20 min of cardio a day, if i can. My main goal is just to lose these f---ing man boobs. Ive got a barrel chest and wide shoulders as it is, i dont need these little nubbins :| Should i change anything? Ive been doing this plan for a week. I was just going to change day 2 to chest/triceps, since both are push, and then move biceps. If i had access to a gym (mom wont get the subscrption back, just tells me to use what we have, heh), i could do better exercises but... i dont, heh. Mainly freeweights and a tiny home gym thingy.

Ask for gym membership (to a good gym) as an early christmas or birthday present. It's well worth it if you stick with lifting.
Don't go for the high reps low weight crap. Lift heavy. Mix rep ranges. f you want to lose weight then start counting calories to some extent. Plan food. |

I'd also drop your reps down and lift more weight, give yourself a day off after legs, your body needs time to rest if your lifting with intensity.
Keep buggin your mom about the membership. ![]() |

you can still do a little with your delts and traps... i assume you have a barbell you can do some shoulder shrugs,front raises, military press, bent over rows... thatll give you a little delt and trap movement... i dont have much equipment either so thats what i do...

Wouldn't "heavier than he is now" be qualified as "heavy"?

Everyone has a definition on lifting heavy, so you really cant say wether you lift heavy or light.
My definition on lifting heavy is: when you are on your forth last rep and you think you may start crying and puking before you are going to be able to finish your set. If you guys believe that he should lift "heavy" now, then fine. We are here to post our opinions and I thin young people that are just starting out need to lift a little lighter to get their form down before they start lifting heavier. You can form bad habits very fast and mess your body up for good. He can lift "heavy" now and risk injuring his body for life or he can lift a little lighter and be safe about everything. Its all up to him. I know a couple of men in their 40's that started to heavy to young and can never workout again because their joints hurt them so much. |

its not because they started lifting heavy too young its because they started lifting heavy too wrong... i know a couple dozen guyz and im sure there are quite a bit more who started young and are fine now in their older age... he should learn form first i agree however once he learns form then what is the point of lifting light?
and how can you say everyone can have their own opinion and then make the opinions so black and white... he can risk injusry or be safe... lol anyone given those to choices would pick be safe... sure youre risking injury but you almost make it seem like if you lift heavy you may as well plan to be in pain when youre 40... |

Well you have a point there.
I am not trying to be black and white, but i still believe he needs to learn light and then progress. Especially because he doesnt have anyone to show him proper techniques by working out at home. So stop jumping on me, unless you take your clothes off. Hahaha, just a joke. |

Well the age requirement for joining a gym is 16.
I also don't see any problem with anyone joining a gym and lifting (relative) heavy weights providing good form is used. In fact, it's scientifically proven (in at least one study, but i suspect more have shown it also) that lifting heavy weights can aid in increasing bone density. Which is a good thing. |
