My old routine had become a little stale, so I figured that there was no better time to shake things up than the start of a new year. Day One Chest Flat-bench press, BB Alternating with push-ups Flat-bench flies, DB Tris Tricep Pulldowns Tri Dips Skull crushers Abs: HS Abs Machine Day Two...

A 3-day split works best with my busy schedule. 6 excercises, of 3-4 sets, is going to be my max per workout. I find that between 6 excercises, some abs, and some cardio, that my workouts are taking me 1 1/2 hours. I'm going to start off each workout with some time on the stepper (new for...

I have just started to take 5 mg of creatine - with room-temperature grape juice 30 minutes before workouts. Should I be taking it on off days too (workout every second day), or is that unecessary?

I've just shook up my routine and thought that a new journal was in order. My old journal is at: http://www.ironmagazineforums.com/showthread.php?t=27972. I'm trying a P/RR routine with a 3-day, chest-back, legs-shoulders, arms, split. Right now, I am about 172 Lbs. and 6'. I'm slowly heading...

Well, it???s time for a shake up in my work-out routine. I???ve hit a plateau, results wise, and my motivation has taken a downer. Here???s some background, as well as my present routine. I???m thinking of going back-and-forth between my present routine and a new one every four months or...

Right now I am taking a multi-vitamin every morning. It contains 100 mg. of C and 50 IU of E. While I will take some additional C when I feel a cold coming on, I don't take any extra C regularly. Is there any consensus on whether one should take more than 100 mg. and 50 IU on a daily basis...

I've never seen a gym / modern art gallery before. Bizarre. http://www.spacegym.com/ Check out the "tour images of SPACE." How many gyms do you know that have giant busts of Lenin (with Spock ears?) sitting outside?

Any thoughts on which is better for your bis, alternating hammer curls, or alternating "normal" curls?

Right now, my routine looks like this: http://www.ironmagazineforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=27972 I am doing 15 minutes of cardio (excercise bike) at the beginning of my workout and 15 minutes of cardio (excercise) at the end as well. I have read a couple of posts where post-workout...

Well, I figure that part of the point of starting an online journal is to help motivate yourself, so I figured that I would give it a go. A little bit of background on myself. I will be 31 in a couple of months. Five months ago I took out a membership at a local gym, and when I stepped on the...

Good morning, I bought some Whey protein yesterday (Prolabs), and I have a few newbie questions for the gang here: 1) One scoop is 22 g protein. Great. But how big is the scoop? My tub didn't come with a scoop apparently. 2 tablespoons = 1 scoop? 2) I figure that the easiest way to add...

For those of us who cringe at the thought of spending $3.50 (Cdn) on a protein bar, what about sardines? I have been having a tin of Brunswick sardines before bed, every night as my 6th "meal" of the day. At $.90 per tin, they certainly suit my budget: Energy 237 Cal Protein 22g Fat 16g...
