  i'm just curious about what the workout regimen of the various cue-beaners around here are like. i'm thinking it's about time i switch mine up.

  what's an average day at the gym for you?

  are you getting the results you want?

  how would you change it?

  I just run, working out is more for people that spread mouse on their heads and are flexing all the time. I have a beer gut and its not going anywhere, I can't diet so running helps me keep stuffing my face with tacos whenever I want to

  If you're looking to beef up, it's important to do the combo workouts rather than just isolating the muscles only. It will boost your testosterone. It's also important to do heavier rates and lower reps (6-8) and 3 sets

  • what's a combo workout?– uberdesigner1/4

    basically excercises that work several muscle groups rather than isolating one, like bench press or squats– epikore2/4

    hit me on im– uberdesigner3/4

    ok, gonna take lunch soon, later...– epikore4/4

  Weightlifting is only 1/3rd of it. The other parts are sleeping and proper diet.

  • which are my main problem
    getting protein and sleep– scarabin_net1/6

    Try myoplex protein shakes, just don't take too much or it's going to hurt your kidneys and liver– epikore2/6

    and drink lots of water– epikore3/6

    scarabin gets a lot of protein in his diet. mainly from sailors.– uberdesigner4/6

    i was waiting for that– scarabin_net5/6

    haha, he picks on you only cause he cares– epikore6/6

  And then once you plateu and feel you're stagnating, you have to shock your muscles by mixing it up with some new excercises.

  I started a membership in January and it was tough to go considering the routine I worked out with a trainer took about 2 hours to complete.

  I just started the Men's Health Belly Off workouts a couple weeks ago and have really enjoyed it. I go every other day, and can get most of the workouts done in under an hour, usually including a bunch of core exercises with med ball and body weight stuff.

  I was going to the gym 4 times a week and wasn't getting any results. I wasn't pushing myself and I was still drinking and eating whatever I wanted. I started a boot camp 2 weeks ago and I'm so sore I can barley move.

  • more info on this boot camp?– scarabin_net1/3

    not sure if this is the same, but they have a boot-camp class at the y i go to. usually consists of weights and cardio– lvl_132/3

    and is like an hour long.– lvl_133/3

  My housemate runs a sports store so we have a lot of gear at home. So far it's:
  Incline situp bench, dips, wide grip chin-up bar, bench, dumbbells, rowing machine/bike, jump-rope.
  On the heavy nights, it's warm up, jump rope to get the heart rate up, stretch properly, then mix up situps, wide grip chin-ups, dips and bench, do that 'til the upper body basically fails, then do some squats, then get on the bike to warm down.
  On the easier nights it's warmup, stretch, all sorts of exercises with the dumbbells, pushups, situps, and the bike.
  As for frequency, 3 times a week straight after work when I'm not busy, never or once a week when I am busy. But like epikore said, you gotta eat properly. Not like a hardcore health-nut, just cut out most of the shite, and don't have massive portions.
  I definitely got the results I wanted, only problem was my neck got a bit too big and now I can't button up the collar on most of my business shirts, lol.

  • ha!– scarabin_net1/2

    You don't squat or deadlift, which are the 2 most important exercises in my opinion.– section_0142/2

  Another main factor is being consistent. You also don't want to over workout. 45 minutes in the gym is good enough. 2 hours might be overkill.

  I'm thinking of taking up racquetball. Can't find anyone who would actually play with me though. Too demanding.
