Will be starting out with light weights and working my way into the routine over 6-8 weeks before training full bore. ______________________ Cheers Morgan! |

| Making Progress Join Date: Jan 2004 Posts: 182 Rep Power:   | Dang, thats all Im saying for now Steve. Mine is not quite as detailed: Bulking programme with 5 sets per exercise (Each day starts with 1/2 hour of cardio). Monday Shoulders 5 exercises, and 1 isolation Biceps 3 exercises and 1 isolation Tuesday 1 hour 30 mins cardio 3 layers of clothing Abs 4 exercises, 2 of which are weighted Wednesday Legs 5 exercises and 1 isolation Back 5 exercises and 1 isolation Thursday 1 hour 30 mins cardio 3 layers of clothing Abs 4 exercises Toning, 2 of which are weighted Biceps 2 exercises Friday Chest 6 exercises Triceps 4 exercises Saturday/Sunday 15 minutes extra cardio Back 5 exercises Toning Abs 4 exercises Toning Its your basic Bulking programme with a little toning to get that extra pump. Back is probably my favorite, my opinion has always been that the back is the basis to a good physique. I change the workout every now and again, and might do more toning instead of bulking. There you have it! ______________________ "Living life at 18stone 10lbs is painful. Losing weight is a challenge.

| Making Progress Join Date: Jan 2004 Posts: 182 Rep Power: | LOL!  Dave you have a pretty good explanation there! Trust me when I say this, after being bullied for 4 years, having a girlfriend leaving you for our weight, and having no confidence is something I always think about whenever I train. Its like the mind takes over and Im away! My workout partner calls me all sorts at time coz I rarely get tired when I get my focus on, and this guys been doing it for 13 years! And yes in a short answer the cardio hurts like hell! Average time for a light workout (toning) 2hours. Average for heavy (Bulking) atleast 2 1/2 hours sometimes 3! I dont like to gloat but the results speak for themselves, its worth it in the long run! Also, people do stare but not at my arse, and when they do its normally the guys....slightly worrying there?! ______________________ "Living life at 18stone 10lbs is painful.
