Leth, my man, you need to put together a routine, so you can get a full body workout in 3-4 days (Monday, Wednesday, Friday + your day).
Funny, those are actually the days of the week I go to the gym. Problem is, It's hard for me to put together a routine, since the gym I go to is kinda limited in terms of different fitness machines. Would love some tips on getting a routine together that focuses on neck, arm and stomach muscles though.

Teach me sempai :$

My gym is also limited. That's why it's fun, challenge yourself. Get creative! I encourage you to watch fitness channels for tips since they're professionals and know a lot more than i do. I just know that the best way to start off is to make your own routine, because what works for one person might not work for another.

You can train your neck with shrugs, arms with bicep curls (there's A LOT of different ways to do bicep curls) + don't forget your triceps and for stomach you'll want watch BarBrothers.


Also, BroTip: When somebody asks you "What day is it?" in the gym, the answer is "Chest day, Arm day, Leg day".

Na, not really. If somebody asks you what day is it for you in the gym and you answer with "Chest day brah" - they won't find it weird.

You should feel horrible. You're letting yourself down! You're doing this for yourself and for yourself only.

See that you do, Monstar, work extra hard and take smaller breaks in between the exercises - discipline yourself by punishing your body because of your laziness. That is how i got into my routine - you give up before the last rep, you do extra.

so I did my arms and chest today, with a warmup of belly dancing. Now I don't want to say Kims workouts aren't good.....but wow that bellydancing! My whole body was creaking! I guess I opened it up pretty good :3 it did feel good.

I don't think the goal of "just do the workouts on the workout days" is enough for me anymore. I've been doing them for 2 months now. I need new goals. I decided that in 2 weeks time (not this week and not next week) I'm going to have a test of how much I can do. I'm going to do the workouts that I normally do, but do as many reps of 10 as I can. I wanna know where I stand right now and what my next goal should be.

Good. Test your limits. Those aren't my actual workouts though, they're simplified versions of what i used to do when i started out. :P Make sure to keep good form and rest as little as you can. 4 sets of 15-20 reps of all the exercises is more than enough for you to achieve your current goals, but i strongly suggest you to also start going to the gym.

Also, when you change it up, don't change the days .. just change the exercises and volume. Stay with Monday, Wednesday and Friday. You could do cardio on Tuesdays and Thursdays if you want to though.



Could you post your whole weeks routine here? So people could see it.

So, just in case anybody is interested in dieting or eating healthy.. here's what i mostly eat from Monday to Saturday. It's kind of a diet (but not really) that i put together for myself so i could get enough carbs in a day. Ofcourse i mix it up every now and again, but these are the basics for me.

Breakfast:

- Oatmeal
- 3 egg whites
- 3 whole eggs

Lunch:

- Brown rice
- Chicken breast

Pre-workout:

- 2 slices of whole wheat bread + peanut butter

Post-workout:

- 1 large banana

Dinner:

- Brown rice
- Chicken breast

+ snacking between all the meals (apples, nuts, that sort of thing)

Chicken is better if you want to stay lean, but yea .. it's also the most expensive thing in my basic diet because of the amount i go through in a week.

Also 3 whole eggs + 3 egg whites is not a lot, really. I cut down from 6 whole eggs to three because of the amount of fat the 6 yolks contain + i'm no longer bulking.

Care to elaborate?

Peanut Butter is always a good idea for any cutting diet. Foods with high levels of monounsaturated fat like peanut butter actually promote weight loss. The fats found in peanut butter are actually needed by the body to burn the "bad fats", also, things like Olive oil and fish contain these too.

It is also high in protein and low in carbohydrates. Just make sure you check the ingredients on it because you don't want any added salt or sugar.
