Current Workout

As well as blogging about training to become a Personal Trainer I will also be updating this site with my current workout routines that I am currently doing to help achieve the body I want. My current workout routine can be found under “Workout” in the top navigation panel.

At the moment I have just started an 8 week plan that was recently in an issue of Mens Health:

The workout consists of doing 25 reps of the following exercises:

• Bench Press
• Deadlifts
• Squats
• Chin Ups
• Tricep Dips
• Lunges
• Bent Over Row
• One Arm Row
• Shoulder Press

These are then split into 3, and completed on alternate days. I.e:

Day 1

• Bench Press
• Chin Ups
• Deadlifts

Day 2

• Lunges
• One Arm Row
• Should Press

Day 3

• Squats
• Bent Over Row
• Tricep Dips

The idea is to complete 25 reps of each exercise and this can be achieved by doing how ever many reps per set as you wish, i.e 3 x 12 or 4 x 6.

By doing these compound movements you target every muscle in your body and gain an all over workout.

Keeping at it for 8 weeks, should see a great gain in overall strength and muscle gain (I hope so anyway).
