Okay guys I have decided to brave it and put my workout on here. I am just curious as to some feedback as to if you think the program is good or what improvements can be made. I am 6’2’’ and about 190 lbs. I gain weight pretty quickly, but not definition. I am trying to gain some serious muscle.

Is this sufficient or is it terrible? I am not sure this is what I have been told works. Also this workout is back to back to back with three days off in a row. Would you suggest that or doing something like every other day with two workouts a week back to back? Thanks for any feedback.

I just can’t help but read your post in a feminine lisp. Like I’m auditioning for a part on queer eye.

Not sure why that is.

Um 39 sets for your upper body VS % friggin exercises for the larger half the lower body. UM Not good IMO. that and damn bro yes exercises and variety are great but you dont have to do the ALL in one program. chose a few each day and give them do attention.

Do a split, full body, what ever floats your boat but id address the lower body prob and drop a ton of the excess and choose a few to do well.

So what you are saying is that this is a little overboard in regards to number of excercises per day?

Dude… he’s saying this is a horrible program. If your not being sarcastic, Go look up some articles by Da Thib , or Waterbury. O well , maybe this is your version of “high frequency training”

Rippetoe’s Starting Strength. Google it.

If you’re unsure of your current routine you need to just find one tailored to your needs in the archives of training articles. If anything I’d rather see more lower-body work than upper-body.

Please, please start deadlifting. It’ll build your forearms much better than the wrist curls you have set-up. For my goals I view isolation exercises as ways to bring up the weak links in my compound lifts.

From your avatar your goal looks like it should be maxing the PT test, not to appear jacked, unless you enjoy getting the tape test. (Doesn’t ROTC give more $ for a higher PT score in college? I don’t know I never signed the contract)

Yea I am going for the max on the PT test. I already am at a 260. NO they do not give you any extra cash for maxing it out all you get is a ribbon to put on your class A’s. Which I already have. I wouldn’t mind getting the tape test it doesn’t really matter. If you are huge you will get about 100% more respect in ROTC.
