Before anyone reads this post, I would like to please ask you to read it FULLY and not just skim it. Thank you!
Hey guys! I am 15 years old, 175 pounds, 5'11'', and have a pretty high body fat and low muscle percentage. I am starting to lift weights over the summer and since I cannot get to a gym, I bought a set of 15 pound dumbbells. Now, I have made a workout plan and I need your opinions guys. Also take note that I am on a diet and trying to lose weight as well and ultimately transform my body from high body fat to being ripped over a period of time.
I plan on doing the following exercises daily:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Standing Dumbbell Upright Row (traps) - 3 sets of 10
Dumbbell Raise (shoulders) - 3 sets of 10
Standing Dumbbell Triceps Extension (triceps) - 3 sets of 10
Dumbbell Alternate Bicep Curl (biceps) - 5 sets of 20 (alternating on each hand)
Seated Dumbbell Palms-Up Wrist Curl (forearms) - 3 sets of 10 (I cannot understand why my wrists are so damn skinny compared to other boys my weight/height even though I am fat - I have no fat on my wrists though)
I also plan on doing push-ups at the end of beginning and end of each workout (as many as I can do).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am also going to be riding my bike outside for 30 minutes (should I ride more?) daily (for leg muscles) after I eat breakfast so I can get my metabolism going. Take note that I am also trying to lose weight.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, what do you guys think? Any suggestions/improvements on my workout program?
