Alright this can go either way, wieght training or weight loss if if it needs to be moved go for it.


If i am losing weight right now, is it wise to increase my weight i lift and decrease my reps.

like right now i do

Day 1
Dumbbell rows 2 set 20 reps with 30 lbs dumbbells
Incline Dumbbell Press 2 sets 20 reps with 25lbs dumbbellsx2
Dumbbells pullover 2 sets 20 reps 35 lbs
Incline Dumbbells 2 set 20 reps 25 lbs x2
Dumbbells curls 2 set 20 reps 25 lbs

Concentration curls 2 sets 20 reps 30 lbs
Triceps kickback 2 sets 20 reps 25 lbs
30 min of cardio

Day 2

leg curls 2 sets 20 reps 65 lbs

standing calf raises(two leg) on machine sets 2 reps 20 140lbs
Bent over lateral raises 2 sets 20 reps 60 lbs
30 min of cardio

Day 3 is just cardio and ab workout.


i usually do this;
monday = day 1
tuesday = day 2
wedensday =day 3
thurs= day 1
fri= day 2
saturday = day3
sunday = day off

I changing it up from week to week but that is the area i work out in that day.

I want to bulk up, but i was wondering if it would be alright to do while i still have a high percentage of body fat? I feel like if i lose the 60 lbs more i will be close to a lean body. According to the BF% test that is how much body fat i should lose.

And yes my diet is set up for High protein low carb and fat.

thanks for any reponse and if you need to know more i will answer as good as i can.
 
Why are you doing so many exercises at that high of reps in the first place. High reps do not "tone".
 
Not had time to look at it in depth.

1 would advise breaking up your workout in to 3 rather than 2 this is so you can put more effort into the exercises you do.
Also try doing 3 sets of 10, not 2 of 20 - this will help build mass as you can lift heavyer weights.

for legs, do 4 sets of 5reps.

What do you mean by incline dumbells???

your strength seems very uneven. You doing 20 curls with 25lbs, yet you squat with then 25lbs to.

Your not doing anything for your lats. try cin ups etc...

swap the leg curls for lunges.

try to seperate pushing and pulling exercises.

what about shrugs?


what equipment to you have access to (apart from dumbbells! lol!)
 
I am going to a new gym tommorrow, but at the old gym it was easier to use dumbbells instead of going upstairs and downstairs all the time. Also the main goal of this exercise was to work on posture, so i won't hurt myself before going up in weight and to get use to the workout. I was getting this workout sheet from a book titled " the Body Sculpting Bible for Men" by James Villepigue and Hugo Rivera.

According to the book i done enough break-in time and i am suppose to increase the weight, decrease the reps, increase the sets and add more exerices to the plan. I was wondering if that would be wise to do with me having to lose so much weight still.

That Dumbbell Incline was suppose to be Dumbbell Incline Fly.

Thanks!!
