Some really great posts in this thread. Thanks guys. I guess the question was subtle way of asking what's gunna happen if i continue doing what i am doing. I ride to work and there is no escaping it. I do about 13 kays each way most weekdays plus train weights Monday Wednesday and Friday and swim Tu...

Geez, i wish i had this problem! Go to the uni gym for sure. Its free! You can break up the monotony of exercising at the same time each day, by doing different routines OR different intensities OR keeping consistent with your workouts and really trying to nail your diet. You'll see the results you ...

People often say lifting weights and cardio dont mix too well, or that the cardio lessens the ability to 'grow' muscle. So what actually happens? If i went to the gym and did a full on weights session every three days, but did cardio every morning and afternoon 5 days a week, what happens to the mus...

The routine is like this: Lunges (on platform - stepping backwards) with 10KG dumbells 20 Reps Squat and Press with 17.5 KGs 12 Reps Deadlift 20KGs 12 Reps Upright Row 20KGs 12 Reps Pushups (mountain climbing push up - bringing knee to elbow on each compression of the elbows) 20 Reps MB Crunch 10KG ...

ok guys, i have been swayed :) I went to see one of the trainers at the gym (i got two free sessions upon joining) and she told me that the routine i had was good, but i didn't need to split up the muscles at this point. So, she has written out a FB program that can be completed in around 40 minutes...

Hmm.

I really like this site:

http://www.sports-db.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It has cool animations to show exercises and has been a pretty big help for me when i dont know what i'm meant to be doing.

So do you think that's the best way for solid gains? I do want to bulk chest up quite a bit, it's currently concaved :oops: :P The only concern i had when looking at colleagues work out initially (from a very uninformed POV) was that i seemed to be smashing shoulders Wednesday and Friday.. Im gettin...

Thanks lp. Are you saying that compacting routine to cover all muscles in the one day and do that three times a week is better?

I should probably mention at this point that i need to work out in lunch break, which is an hour, so i have about 45 minutes of actual work out time.

Hi Guys, Im really new to working out at a gym so after joining the Gym across the road from work, i asked a guy i work with (who used to be right into body building) to write out a three day weights plan for me. I know you guys have a heap of knowledge in this area, so i thought i'd post it up to s...

Yeah good thread.

I thought a beer after a long day of working out wouldnt hurt a bit. I was very wrong.

Thanks Lesplease!

Yeah i will make sure that i start bringing some veges to snack on through the day. Do you eat broccoli raw?

Yeah, i dont get enough veg!

How do you guys manage to get enough veg in through the day (while at work)?

Thanks Nokie!

Yeah i had a feeling the muesli bars weren't the best option. I'll try and replace them with something a little less sugary.

Is portion size a consideration with what im eating? When i see people posting what they are eating in a day, it seems much less than what i have?

Hi all, I have just joined the forum after reading a few threads the last 2 days and feel this is a good place to get a better understanding of what i should be doing both nutritionally and physically. :D After being a very active child through to young adult, when i started working, i was doing job...
