hey, Ive started to really go for a healthy and fit lifestyle. I was wondering if you could tell me if im doing anything wrong, Ive been eating nothing but healthy foods, lots of fruit and veg, red meats and alot of white meat like chicken, however I am seeing no gain, apart from in my arms. This is my workout routine, I try to do it every day, however sometimes I miss a day, If ive got alot of college work on:
start on a multi-gym
20 bennch press in a row
10 butterfly press, rest and another 10
10 leg extentions, rest and another 10
20 in a row Lat pull down (however I dont think im doing it right as I feel no faigue)
10 Press ups (I stuggle immensley at these, so I have to do it like in your vid, rest on my knees insted of my toes)
20 left/right crunches in a row (I lean my back back and raise my legs and suspend there and move a weight from one side of my body to the next, when I get to around 15 it really starts to hurt)
10 crunches, rest then another 10 (I put my legs up on a chair and I lie back on the floor and do them like you said rising my shoulders to the ceiling)
10 vertical crunches, rest then 10 more (I lie on my back and walk up the wall until im almost vertical to the wall and push a weight up towards my feet, hard to explain that one)
10 squats (these really hurt, I have 2 dumbells over each shoulder and I lean down into the squat, very painful)
10 deadlifts (I dont think im doing these right, as insted of my arms aching, my legs hurt even more)
20 stiff deadlifts in a row
15 straight arms lifts on my right arm and 20 on my left as its weaker (I hold my arm over a pad that leans around 45 degrees and extend my arm from straight into a lift, this one really finishes my arms off, really hurts)
10 (if i can manage) dumbell press (I sit in a chair and push the 2 dumbells up over my head, I can hardly manage 10 and im lucky if i reach 10)
10 dumbell rows on each arm (I rest on leg on a chair and lift the weight with the opposite arm to about the same height as my back when im leant over, very painful indeed)
I know thats a little wordy, however I really want to make sure I do this right, as i dont want to hurt myself but i want to see gains, I suppose thats the only thing thats dis-heartened me, Ive only seen gains in my arms so far.
Oh yeah forgot to mention, every day I do 30 minutes non stop on a cycling machine for aerobic exercise.
I really really appreciate you taking the time to read this, I eagerly await some opinions
All the best
