So... I am very successful right now at losing weight, but I want advice from those of you who are experienced on my routine...
I obviously want to burn fat, but I am very concerned with keeping toned and building strength as I lose weight.
I am mainly concerned that maybe if I spread my excercises out differently I might be more effective in a shorter amount of time?? I also worry that maybe I'm not getting enough cardio, even though I still feel like I'm getting a pretty intense overall workout.
Anyway, my routine is..
5 times a week I do the same workout
vertical bench presses (40 reps total)
preacher curls (30 reps total)
lat pulldowns (30 reps total)
tricep extenders (30 reps total)
20 minutes on stationary bike (7 miles, random hills, 200-230 calories)
abdominal crunches with weights (45 reps total)
rotary torso on each side (45 total on each side)
calf presses (130 reps total)
eg presses (45 reps total)
vertical bench presses (40 reps total)
preacher curls (30 reps total)
lat pulldowns (30 reps total)
tricep extenders (30 reps total)
20 minutes on stationary bike (7 miles, random hills, 200-230 calories)
If I still have any energy left I might shoot hoops or try and max out on an upper body machine... but I rarely do have energy left.
