While browsing, I bumped into this thread. Thought of sharing my daily workout and get your opinions. I am 5"8’ and weight 169lbs (was 165lbs but then mom came over for few days, so obviously gained weight)
p.s. I have no professional training. Whatever I do is what I learnt after going through YT videos.
Morning Run - 20mins - M,W,F
Morning Walk - 30mins - T,T,S
Gym - 45 mins - M,W,F
Push ups - 50
Squats - 25 (80lbs)
Pull ups - 25 (8,6,6,5 reps)
Crunches - 25
Leg raises - 25
Sit up benches - 25
Dumbbell front raises - 25 (10-15lbs)
Bicep curls - 25 (30lbs)
Bench press - 25 (90lbs)
Dead lift - 25 (125lbs)
Back lat pull down - 25 (80lbs)
I do #7x10,#8x10,#9x10, then again #7x10,#8x10,#9x10 and lastly #7x5,#8x5,#9x5.
I do all of the above in 1.15 hour with rest in between, so consider it as 45-50mins of hard work.
Also, I do 4 sets of pull ups and try to pitch it in between the abs workout. As you can see, I am not lifting as much as most of you can
Home workout - 30mins - T,T
Push ups - 50
Squats - 25 (10lbs)
Pull ups - 25 (8,6,6,5 reps)
Crunches - 25
Leg raises - 25
Dumbbell front raises - 25 (10-15lbs)
Bicep curls - 25 (30lbs)
Tricep Bench dips - 25
Superman plank - 30 secs
In the evening, I take my doggo out for 1 hour. Either we go to the dog park where he plays on his own and I walk around the park for 30 mins or we go on long walks of 3.5miles.
I don’t sleep much, hardly 5-6 hours/day. I know I need to sleep more, but just not able to do it.
I take a Protein shake everyday, within 15 mins after the workout.
My goals/objectives:
- Stay at 160lbs
- Flat belly
- Able to lift and hold my 90lbs doggo for at least couple of minutes
- I play Cricket. I want to bowl much faster than I do right now and hit the balls out of the grounds. (Cricket is similar to Baseball, so in Baseball terms, I want to bowl much faster and hit those home runs more often).
- I want to be able to lift much larger weights (in 200-300lbs range) and want to be much stronger.
- As I have been doing this long enough, some new routines will be fun.
Forgot to mention, I play Cricket for 2-3 hours every weekend. Also, being an Indian, it is very very difficult to stick to a diet.
Please let me know what you all think. I am open to all kinds of suggestions/discussions.
