Dear Iron Man,
Hi, regarding the HIT workout. I am trying out your workout and I love it. It really feels like I am making progress while on it. There are a few things that I was hoping to get some advice regarding it though. I think its best if I describe my goals and my workout plans before I ask these questions.
I am currently bulking and looking to build mass/muscle. I workout 4 times a week and try to keep it at around 60-75min of working out. I used to do over 2 hrs but found myself too fatigued afterwards and no time left to study.
My workout plan is
Sunday:
Chest
1. Incline
2. Decline
3. Crossovers
Triceps
1. Overhead Pushups
2. Rope Pushdowns
Tuesday:
Shoulder
1. Arnold Press
2. Side Laterals
Traps:
1. Smith machine Shrugs
2. Dumbbell Shrugs
Abs:
1. Leg Raises
2. Weighted Cable Side Bends
3. Weighted Ball Crunches
Thursday:
Back
1. Lat pulldowns
2. Close Grip Pulldown
3. Rows
Abs:
4. Leg Raises
5. Weighted Cable Side Bends
6. Weighted Ball Crunches
Saturday:
Legs
1. Squat
2. Leg Curls
3. Calf Raises
4. Hyperextensions
Bicep:
1. Concentration Curls
2. Dumbbell Curls
I have found using these routines, utilizing your workout has brought my workout time well over 2 hrs. I need to reduce the time of working out. And I don???t believe my workout plan and HIT are working together harmoniously.
Can you please advise as to a more efficient workout plan would be, regarding time? What exercises would you replace for the ones I have posted? Genetically speaking I lagg in the chest area and would like to have a bigger chest. My arms and legs are no problem, I work out just a little bit with them and ???bloop,??? they get big.
From your other post is it correct that when you advise me to do : For example if im working on the chest. Incline: 15 warmup, 8 light, 10 moderate, 5 heavy, 11 light. Then for the next exercise, lets say Decline: 15 warmup, 11 light, 11 light?
What are your suggestions for ab workout, set and rep wise?
I know these are a lot of questions and I appreciate any advice you could give me. I am going to take whatever you tell me and run with it. And the reason I posted on the forum instead of sending an email is I???m pretty sure other people have the same questions that I have and if this post helps other people at all that would be great.
