I'd like to stick with the same exercises for at least 8 weeks to give this routine a fair evaluation. Then, I have no idea what I'm planning from there.

I don't know, maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I keep going up and up in weights every week. I guess I shouldn't complain as I look like I'm putting on some size as well ;)

20 minutes, 5-10 minutes rest between groups depending how long we need. As DWB said, reps, then weights. I write down how many reps I do after each set, add them up for a total # of reps performed, then try and beat that # the next workout.

Alright, this is what my routine has evolved into seeing as I have to workout at home on Tuedays & Fridays: Monday chin-up triceps pressdown seated cable row overhead triceps ext. Tuesday 1-legged calf raise bicycle movement Thursday parallel bar dip EZ-bar curl incline press preacher curl...

In my current split I'm working back/triceps on Mondays & chest/biceps on Thursdays, in essence I am working bi's & tri's twice a week also & they are responding just fine, so I agree with w8, you should be fine.

More power to you buddy, but like I said before, it has repeatedly worked for me.

I disagree. Every time you eat your metabolism goes up as your digesting your food. Any kind of exercise 20 minutes after you eat will kick it up even more. THAT, has been my EXPERIENCE. Read "The Hilton Head Metabolism Diet". And the bottom line is it has repeatedly worked for me.

Besides weight training, and a cutting meal plan ( http://www.ironmagazineforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6620&highlight=male+meal+plan ), all I would recommend is a 20 minute brisk walk 20 minutes after 1 or 2 of your meals. The idea behind this is not to burn fat, but to kick up your...

There are so many variable with workouts, frequency, intensity, etc., etc.. What you need to do is listen to your body, log your progress, look for any signs of overtraining. If you notice any, take heed and either break, or incorporate more recovery time. Everyone is different and at...

An odd thing happened to me. Due to extenuating circumstances, I missed Tuesdays workout, and when I worked out Thursday, not only did I go up in all my weights, but I blew all my reps out of the water as well. I'm considering dropping Tuesdays workout all together at this point, maybe I need...

This is what works for me. Years ago, I stumbled across "The Hilton Head Metabolism Diet" Basically, when you restrict your calories, your metabolism slows down. By utilizing low level intensity cardio (brisk walking), and/or weight training after 2 or 3 of my meals, that's how I have kicked...

Will do. So far so good. 1 week in the bag. I woke up at 3 a.m. this morning so sore from the lunges I did Friday. I downed a Tblspoon of peanut butter with a scoop of whey mixed with water and went back to bed. The soreness I'm used to. I've felt this previously from a lot of other ways I've...

Gee, thanks everyone! (sarcasm) After reading this thread I went and bought a couple bars, one for my training partner, and one for myself for after the next time we trained. Needless to say, we just ordered 4 boxes online, and I'm cutting, not good!

This is the routine I've committed myself to for the next 7 weeks: Monday chin-up triceps pressdown seated cable row overhead triceps ext. Tuesday hanging reverse crunch lateral raise leg ext. leg curl Thursday parallel bar dip EZ-bar curl incline press preacher curl Friday lunge hanging...

I'll tell you one thing. After training HIT style for many years, I forgot how good the pump feels, and let me tell you, you sure get a nice pump training this way. Here's a few more pages on the subject: http://www.testosterone.net/nation_articles/208edt2.html...

I'm sure I'll peak earlier, then I can clean bulk a week, cut a week, you know, just stay on the edge of being shredded ;) I'm still learning exactly how long it takes my body to respond to altering my nutrition. Last year I started a little late, and tried to add cardio as summer grew closer...

Cutting? None of the above. You really need to soak up the nutrition forum ;)

Branch Chain Amino Acids Right off the spoon. And check the label as a lot of PB has sugar in it. You may need to go with "natural" PB. Bread may be ok when bulking, but I avoid it when cutting, high G.I. value. Fat is your friend, good fats that is. Russet potatoes, red potatoes, brown rice...
