Hey, I am a male 18 years old. I haven't been working out for about 8 months now. I want to get back into shape. I was wondering if there is anything I can possibly do to get my shape back? I have home gym and i have regular gym but I don't have time to go to regular gym only the home gym is more easier for me. I was wondering if there is anything I can possibly do to get my self back in shape I am really sad that I lost everything because I didn't have time because I had to work and school and such.
Find and ask Slappy_Doo_Hoo. He'll have good advice for you.
Start by eating healthy. Salads lots of greens. Try jogging in the early morning everyday while walking your dog or something. Then to moderate wieght lifting 3 times a week for about half hour - hour. Try and stay away from sweets and soda's. I've been doin this since i was about 11 and now im fit and have some muscle to go with it. Of course now i do alot more wieght lifting and eat more fruits and more protiens.
tell me what you have to work with and I will set you up.....don't worry I have my NSCA-CPT which I never use plus military routine experiance and years of training. heres my routine although it may not be right for you.
sets/reps are 3x6 aunless stated otherwise

close grip bench
TUE:

Well, any more suggestions out there please please help.
1st of all read the other thread it covers the way to eat, 2nd you may be overtraining if you work each bodypart seperately keep things compound. try the workout above and get your diet on track and keep us updated.
WAIT SO YOU SAYING WORK ALL THE BODY PARTS AT THE SAME TIME OR WORK THEM AT DIFFERENT TIMES?
I'm saying do compound exercises as I posted above the key is to use exercises that use more then 1 muscle at 1 time but do not do exercises that use those same muscles as stabalizers too much in the same workout as they will overtrain. for example you do not need to isolate the biceps because they are used as a stabalizer in many of your other workouts meaning isolation will overtrain them. It's 1 thing alot of ppl overlook
hey what if i work out my upper body first day rest then secnod lower reest then upper rest then lower and soo on?
