Hey guys, got a question for y'all and a decent topic to help other guys too. I'm curious what workout routines you all prefer? Personally, I use T25 workout. I found it to be the most fun and I can do it even on my "low energy days". works great for me. but, I wanna know what you guys like. and gym workouts count too...I go to them once in awhile too. |

Lift weights. Build strength. Do some cardio after your work out. Eat clean. |

Personally, I think the best workouts are those you make yourself. If you make a workout yourself, you'll fill it with your favorite exercises and you'll love working out more and so you will more often. I know I like bar exercises, so I'll just do a few hundred pull ups and chin ups every day or so. If you're looking for some fun, try out some of those. |

I would clearly not recommend creating your own working if you're new in the gym.That being said, choose a starting strength routine if you're a beginner. Otherwise, I do a 2day split. |

Strong lift 5 x 5 is what I started with. I couldn't bench the bar now I'm benching 200 lb  but It got boring really quick and I had to really stay dedicated. It made me stronger but my physique was not good. So now I'm working towards a Greek god body but Strong lift still is my favorite because it's what got me started.

sounds like you guys are dedicating to your upper body, I would suggest you do a all-around workout. make sure you're building towards working strength, not looks. I've known guys that could bench 200+ but couldn't lift a kitchen table. what's the use of having a body of a greek god, if you can't lift the girl against the wall? and R.C., you def have a point, I would not recommend building a routine if you're new to the gym. could end up hurting yourself, rather than helping. It's always good to have a pro show ho to do it properly. That's why I use T25, it's strength training, cardio, stamina, and working strength. I alternate their routines throughout the week, and it's great. I have weights, but mine are designed for martial arts training like wrist wraps, punching ball, ankle weights, etc. I'm more about building speed and endurance, than girth. |

I'm pretty sure you can slam any girl against a wall with the body of a greek god, unless she weighs above 200 lbs. In which case you have more immediate problems to worry about.  Personally, I train for aesthetics. I like to look good naked. |

I work legs just not for size. I rather look symmetrical and good naked instead of lifting a ridiculous amount of weight |

Please don't make your own workout routine. Picking your fav exercises only is a recipe for disaster. So many guys are doing bicep curls for some reason. Strong lifts 5x5 for me. Consists of compound movements which means you can kill 3 birds with one stone with just one lift. Best bang for your buck. Lift heavy, eat clean. Throw in some pull ups and dips. |

I agree. also, I use bruce lee's methods. lift heavy first, then progress down with more repetitions. It builds strength, speed, and stamina. I'm all about speed and stamina if you can't tell. I practice Wing Chun, it helps tremendously. |

What are you after? Do Stronglift 5x5 if you want full body size for a starter you literally cant do better than that to start with. Edit: Also its 80% diet you need atleast 1g of protein per a lb of lean body weight not only that you need to eat probably around 3000calories depending on your height/weight already but i imagine 3k calories would be acceptable at first. |

Tell your goals to your trainer and follow professional weight training advice. Don't be a fool by designing one of your own. You'll get injured this way. A rotator cap that gets disaligned is VERY painful and will take months to fix. |

I'm after tone and agility, more than girth. I figure I need to build cardio and muscle tone before I start weight training. I still throw weight training in there, I use 30lb wrist weights and 40lb ankle weights first, then progress down slowly to 10lb wrist weights and 15 ankle weights with more speed and repetitions. I get speed, endurance, strength, and cardio doing that. I do my wing chun training (sil lim tau, chum kiu, biu gee) with heavy weights, and my T25 workout with lighter weights. at 39, I have to work on preventing muscle atrophy rather than building up. to keep my tone. If I working solely with weights, when I get older it will flab out and I don't want that. and I agree with you monsigner, that's very true. I tore my rotator cup playing baseball, and it still gives me fits once in awhile. but martial arts has healed it to about 95% Macster, the protein intake is an awesome tip! many people forget to add protein and carbs to their diet to keep muscles from cramping up. Also, they need to remember to drink plenty of water. lots of water to hydrate the tissue. |
