Man, all of you guys' workouts are so high tech. Mine is basically: |
|
I have no physical form usually so I don't often work out, my arms and legs are quite muscular though |
|
Hey Patience, seems like your upper body is pretty weak but 30 squats a day is not bad Stay healthy and keep exercising! |

Googling "Upper body workouts" should do it Plank is one of the best exercises for that, try side planking too. Every exercise you make that is upper body focused increses the strength of it. If you can't feel the "pump"( feel your muscles burning ) during the exercise then add more weight. Remember to do all sorts of exercises, like for your arms, abdomen, back, legs and chest. Do abdomen workouts like 5 times a week. Running is great for abdomen too. Oh, and start using weights with squats( and other leg exercises) when you feel like you have the strength for it. I think that working your legs with only your body weight gives little to zero results on the longer run. The muscles are so big so that they require lots of extra weight to be trained. I'd suggest 4x15 sets with bigger dumbbell(s) later. I'm no fitness professional and I'm a male so I'm not really sure what kinds of tips to give |

Cheers - yes I started side plank 2 days ago - it was hard at first but I am making progress. Basically I have never had to worry or need to care about fitness or weight so never realy worked out ( do some regular yoga and lots of meditation ) but with being in mid 40's now the need is showing recently. Have to be a little careful with knees as I had an operation on it a few years ago and it's never been 100% since, also lower back gets sore sometimes so that's why I am doing best to strength the core muscles and back. |

Okay. I think my tips still apply ( use weights and that ) because you're still in a good age to do a little bit heavier exercises too. Not gonna lie... I always thought you were more like 20 or something so I gave tips according to my belief. If you go to the gym, never use this leg workout machine. It's the absolute knee killer. nimetön.jpg |

Yes 20 is a nice age - thanks |

If I were to give you advice, I would only be saying things I randomly recall from my time spent reading on the forum of Bodybuilding.com (during the time I was going to the gym). I think you should google that forum, for example "bodybuilding.com beginner exercises for getting in shape". The forum might be the single best place for information. Because there are a lot of people discussing all the way from general beginner exercises/routines all the way to the specific nuances of specific exercises only relevant to people trying to reach high levels of strength/muscle mass. Also diet talk. And because there is a lot of feedback from users, if someone is saying something wrong or somewhat inaccurate, there will be enough knowledgeable/experienced/serious users to set straight the misunderstanding. And because there will be multiple people on the same thread commenting on each other and multiple threads on the same topic, you are almost guaranteed to end up with highly accurate and valuable information. Also it's useful when you read or hear something like what Saizaphod said "If you go to the gym, never use this leg workout machine. It's the absolute knee killer." You can check the forum and find out whether it's true, false or still up for discussion. |
