| Making Progress  Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: somerset Posts: 436 Rep Power:  |  Gains have totaly stopped,WHY Hi,ive been wieght training for 3 months and have gained a stone in wieght and i am a lot stronger.The probelem i have is i only train at home because of a number of reasons, this means my training is basic and i cannot think of new routines which i know i need, as progress is slowing down more or less stopped.My biggest noticble gain is my chest and i want to get my chest as big as i possibly can as my chest is my weakest part of my body.Like ive mentioned a thew weeks ago i only have a bench with NO rack and i obviously have dumbell, barbell.Can i buy a rack seperatly so i can perform bench press instead of forever doing flies,if so were from and how much? I will display my training routine below so you can comment if im going wrong,i have had gains since moving to this routine but i think i can and should be doing a 5 day split or somethings wrong as gains have stopped totaly which is anoying because it takes so long for me to work out a training program for home training. WED/SAT Behind neck press flies bent fowrard lateral raises tri extensions lateral raises TUE/FRI squats barbell curls single arm rows sit ups I do 4 sets of 8-12 of all the above.I do think that looking at my training program it doesnt look a lot,by the way i dont do a 3 day split as ive tried it and hated it as it lasts so long and is to tirering for me.If any one can give me an opinion or help me? cheers for the help,shane(divie)  PS im sure im eating ok, as im still gaining wieght slowly thanks to steve advising me to revaluate my diet regurly. |

Try intense training focusing on 1 muscle group per session if ure up to it. Does ure bench have incline decline facility makes a big difference to wat i can write back chest wise. When u let me know il take the time to write a routne for u if u want ______________________ In This country you gotta make the money 1st, then when u get the money, u get the power, then when u get the power, u get the woman. |
