bodypart splits are shit for fat loss and not much better for muscle gain really...you need a full body plan x 3 a week woth high intensity cardio on 3 other days...it's also important not to take 2 days off in a row from intensive exercise...i don't even class walking as exercise really...do wts before cardio...how much wt do you expect to lose doing 5pd shoulder raises really????

Thanks for your input. And I will read up on the waterbury method. And I am cutting down on Carb intake as well as watching everything I eat.
As for the 5pd Shroulder Raises... I can't do anymore weight. I can do as much as 25 but only 3 - 5 before shoulder pains too much to do any more. I figured doing 3x12 at 5pd is better then just 3-5 at 25pd.
I could be wrong thou?

Swanso that would be the reason why I am asking for advise, since I am assuming you are a pro and can help me a lot better then the trainers at gym. (not overly impressed with them)
I have tried what you suggested btw about lifting more weight. It hurt like let the first day after doing it and I wasn't able to do only a few reps. But I was surprised that the next week I was able to push out an extra 2 reps. Am very much looking forward to next weeks shoulder day.
Thanks for pointing out your topic in the diet section, It was AWSOME. I have been following that strictly just protein, veg and salad 5 meals a day. I have lost 6 lbs since the end of august.
