Ok. So for the past 2 months or so, I have been doing the same full body every other day. This is how it goes Everything is 3x12,10,8 Squat Bench Seated Cable Row Standing Cable Flies Lat Pull Down Military Press Barbell Bicep Curl Skull Crushers I think it has been working good but I feel like it would be better if I switch things up. And by that, I mean working the same muscles but with different exercises. I want add another routine that I do after Routine A. So... Monday: Routine A Tuesday: Rest or Cardio Wednesday: Routine B Thursday: Rest or Cardio Friday:Routine A Saturday: Rest or Cardio Sunday: Routine B Should I add a third routine or will 2 be fine? So this is what I am thinking for Routine B: Deadlifts Incline Bench Im thinking Dumbbell Row.. Flat Bench Flies Pull-ups..? I need another good shoulder exercise Dumbbell Curl Tricep Pushdown So ya. Any suggestions would be great.
Need help with my full body routine What is the point of having "cardio" on a rest day. Matter of fact, whats the point of doing "cardio" in the first place. Embrace Starting Strength, Embrace results.
Need help with my full body routine Stronger heart and it can pump blood through the muscles which aids in recovery. And OP i like the routine honestly. Just take out those flies i don't see any point in them.
Need help with my full body routine Cardio is very important for muscle recovery and overall health. I usually do a quick 10 minute jog after every workout to get the blood flowing to the muscles.
Need help with my full body routine Really? What is the point of cardio? I think you're kidding but if you're not, carido is pretty important if your on a cut.. Cardio keeps your stamina up.. Cardio increases the health of your heart.
Need help with my full body routine Whats a good shoulder exercise that I can do instead of military press?
Need help with my full body routine Dumbbell shoulder press Arnold press (I wouldn't do em imo) if you're looking to isolate i like side lateral raises but that could just be for assistance. I'd go with strict seated dumbbell shoulder press or better yet what comp said
Need help with my full body routine I can assure you good sir, that no cardio is a great deal more beneficial, that is from a muscular development standpoint, than frequent cardio. A 10 minute jog........... That sounds like something my mom would say. Was not kidding. Again referencing me to my first question " What is the point of doing cardio on a rest day"?. Its called a rest day for a reason, that reason is to rest. Cardio, while minutely beneficial, depletes calories and thats about it. And if your heart rate doesn't get up during a weight training session.....you need to seriously re-think what you are doing.
