Okay, I was reading my brothers Mens Health and I saw this workout;

Monday – Back & Shoulders
Lat Pull
Dumbbell Dead Lifts
Upright Rows
Dumbbell Shrugs

Core Workout
Weighted Sit-Ups
Abs Crunches

Tuesday – Chest & Oblique
Bench Press
Peck Deck
Side Bends

Thursday – Legs
Dumbbell Squats
Leg Extensions
Calf Raises

Friday – Arms
Dumbbell Curls
Reverse Curls
Triceps Pull Down
Triceps Press
Hand Grips


All 10 x 3

Would you say it's any good?

EDIT: I was just thinking, if I was to do this but heavy weight would doing it 5 x 5 be better?

try both, one workout for one month and one for the next

dont have much time so just gonna jot down a few notes for you to go and research.

- you dont need a whole workout for your arms.

- "Core" is not just abs. Also include lower back and obliques (sides)

- you dont have shoulder press in there.

- for legs, dont use machines, do squats and lunges.

- find a range of exercises to work your abs and obliques.


Was this really in mens health, cos they are normally better than this.

I swear to god it was in a Mens Health I found under my brothers bed while cleaning his stuff out. (gone off to uni)

well not only is it a rubish workout. Its irisponsible of them to post something so crap.

there are plenty of good workouts if you look around the forum, mainly in the diarys.

Ah, all right, cheers bud.
