| | | Questions about Benching and Others... I have a few questions....
Normally this is my workout
-200 Crunches
-1x10x120 High Pulley
1x10x140 High Pulley
1x10x160 High Pulley
-1x(as many as i can) x 130
1x(as many as i can) x 140
1x(as many as i can) x 150 i can do about 4-5 reps
I switch off every other day working out and i switch the ruitine..
One day ill do
1 x 12 x 80 Butterflies
1 x 12 x 100 butterflies
1 x 12 x 120 butterflies.
1 x 12 x 75 Curls
1 x 12 x 85 curls
1 x 12 x 95 Curls
then the other day i cut the above 2 out and do dumbell raises
2 x 40 x 10
What ive been doing on the benching is starting at 140 Ibs doing as many as i can twice. Then 150 and doing as many as i can twice. Is that better? Should i do more weight like that and less reps? any suggestions? |

| | | The first thing, develop an actual routine, I don't know what you're doing with all of the numbers you put up, you just do butterflies, curls, and db raises and thats it?? I'm a little confused help me out
With the benching, the sets and reps completely depends on your goals. It's confusing to say "as many as I can" because that could be 50 or it could be 3. Give us numbers, sets, reps, exercises, and goals |

| | | i would suggest doing pyramid reps. Do 12 reps of a weight, then 10 reps of the same weight, then 8 reps. It's great for increasing your muscle size. This should not be a rep to failure though. The 12 reps should be pretty difficult then the 10 reps and 8 reps feel a little easier. It is a great workout. Also more variety in those abs 200 crunches only target the upper abs. Do some leg lifts or twists for your obliques if you want better definition. |

| | | Thats about how many i do for benching
1x10x140
1x5x150
Im not sure about 130 because i havent done it in a while. My goal is to bench 200 pounds as soon as possible, Get Clean Cut arm muscles and abs. I take Protein shakes post every workout. Is every other day working out too little or too much or good?
Let me know thanks |

| | | Dude, we tried, answer the replies and suggestions all of us gave you. Give us everything, goal? routine- exercises, sets, reps,etc..everything? You gave us nothing to go on, and you need to be working your entire body if you aren't. |  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
