Jiek_Fafn 05/18/20 5:29:13 PM #354:	s0nicfan posted... So while there is still a topic talking about fitness goals, I was curious if people had any comments or critiques on my normal gym routine so that I can adjust when my gyms eventually reopen. I normally do a 5-day split that has an almost identical structure each day: A heavy lift with descending reps: 3,3,2,2,1 A superset with 2 exercises at 4x10 2 cooldown exercises at 3x15 The order is legs, chest, rest, back, shoulders, arms, rest. Legs: squat, press and leg curl, leg lift, heel rise Chest: incline bench, dumbell press and fly, skullcrushers, seated fly Back: weighted pullups, straight arm pulls and rows, shoulder rises, back seated fly Shoulder: standing press, incline raise and upright barbell rows, front raises, cable pulls Arms: preacher curls, curls and decline triceps lift, barbell curls, dips I should be doing cardio or core on those rest days but I find that if I try and add any more to this I end up burning out on motivation. I'd maybe throw something to target lower chest in there a little too.That may not be necessary for you though depending on what look you're going for. Most folks tend to focus on upper chest because they prefer that shelf look to their chest. Also rear delts as were mentioned. You might actually be good on triceps. They're getting some work in on your chest day too. --- PSN: Jiek <cite>Jiek_Fafn posted [p:939355844] in How are yo...

Pinotage 05/18/20 5:45:44 PM #357:	It's tough having nothing to train for. My friend and I were pushing for a sub 3hr run at the New York marathon but obviously everything has fallen through. Hopefully there's a few local runs that pop up later this year but for now I'm focusing on building mass again. I tend to lose about 10kg every vintage (peak winemaking season) through long hours and no breaks so it's nice to put the weight back on. --- Husikam ...Believes in Patterns <cite>Pinotage posted [p:939356502] in How are yo...

Jiek_Fafn 05/18/20 5:57:11 PM #358:	s0nicfan posted... Nice, thanks for the feedback. What would you recommend for lower chest? Is that just a decline press? You've got quite a few options. Idk which is really best. Decline press, incline pushups, dips where you lean forward a bit all work pretty well. I prefer dips because you get to work on stabilizing muscles too which is always great. Although I feel like I get better isolation from the push ups/press. There's a lot that comes into play though. Sometimes you'll be too tired from other exercises to really do them correctly. If that's the case the push ups are probably your best bet since it's easiest to isolate imo. --- PSN: Jiek <cite>Jiek_Fafn posted [p:939356962] in How are yo...

At least my measurements keep going down. I knew last week was way too good. So far this week I've gained .4lbs, and I've been eating very well and exercising despite the awful weather. I'm hesitant to add anymore volume, I was very interested in seeing the effects of low intensity exercise on the body. Resting heart rate is about the same, still in upper 70s low 80s range. Weighing under 250lbs this week might not happen, it's looking like that will have to happen next week. It was something I was really looking forward to, I had done so well last week I thought the weight would continue melting off. I'll be lucky if I can hit 252lbs this week, God forbid the weight doesn't change at all I would be devasted. <cite>lincoln002 posted [p:939434863] in How are yo...

I am lifting full-body again tomorrow and again Saturday, thus reverting back to my every three days policy. I feel way less burnt out compared to the four to five days in a row of isolated body area routines. I've never even tried a split, just sounds way too taxing.

If the numbers don't change since I've fixed that I'll rethink things, though Im just speaking from my own experiences. After I got to a certain point I was losing muscle mass for the sake of chasing that elusive scale number. As a result I lost a lot of strength and looked and like shit. And I got stuck where the number didnt go down.
