workout routines
 

anyone have any good workout routines? Im trying to stay in shape for (american) football and gain some muscle.

How old are you, height, and weight?

Re: workout routines
 

chase some border hoppers and then beat them up, work those leg and arm muscles

I normally start off doing some curls, and some dumb bell work outs to warm up my arms. Than i get into the bigger shit like bench pressing, legs, triceps, situps (need a tight tummy for da ladies biggrin: ) and push ups help out to

Ya i work out for soccer and hockey. I think the best way to work out is to focus on one part each day.
Monday - Arms/Chest
Tuesday - Legs
Wed. - shoulders
Thursday - Back
Etc

Translation: "I want to know, so I can imagine you, and then beat off my Piece to a sexay mental image of j00." biggrin:

Nah, seriously, to keep in shape, I have a chin-up bar a boxing-bag and gloves and running shoes. That's all you need!

if u want a good workout, u need to do squats and bench, those are the main things, then plyometric pushups, u know the kind where u push up off the ground? do about 30 of em each night, then with the benches and squats, same thing 30 of em, i do 3 sets of 10 with my high school work out program, uhhh lets see, just goto your school and see if they have a good program

with the program i take i was only benching 205 for my max, now i do 280 biggrin: no bsing either, i squat about 460-480 but i am only 16, so there,lol

TANK!

You should run 2 miles three times a week.

If you plan on training constantly, you should work out six days a week. Alternate your muscles on different days (Monday = upper body, tues = lower body, wed = upper, etc)

For upper body: Pushups, Curls, Pull-ups, freeweight curls

lower: Cardio/aerobics (running, stair climbing, biking), freeweight benches.

i just do back, arms, chest on one day, and do stomach and legs on the other ( i keep it simple)

THE MIS-ADVENTURES OF.......

THE INCREDIBLE FAULT!

I jog to the Tim Horton's every morning for a coffee, it's a good 4km away. Simple workout, and it keeps me from becoming a lardass.

But how many dognuts/other products do you buy there? If you eat a lot there i might cancel out the effects of the run there eatthis:

well do some hip flexion and extension! it makes you faster and do some squats, benches (for wr blocking) and do some leg curls and extentions, thats all you relaly need for playing wr

I usually order a soup.

HAW HAW! Finally someone uses mine. biggrin:

Well this is my workout routine.

10 mins running (only sometimes and when I feel like it)

1.10 reps of benchpress, make sure you put enough weight so you can do exactly 10 reps or less but no more.

2.10 curls for each arms, put enought weight so you can do 10 reps or less.

3.That thing where it is used to curl both your arms at the same time. Also 10 reps...barely.

Repeat process 3 times. Maximum of 1 and half minute rest period for each step.

This if for me but you may need to use a different method. I'm just trying to build body mass.

Well what i do is pick my main body parts- arms, legs, shoulders/back, and chest. And just train those on a certain day. Like with arms i'll do a set of curls then immediatly do set of a tricep exercise, making one Super set. I do that four times, then do that three more times with different exercises. Shoulders the same way, i try to hit all three heads of the shoulder. And so on and so on...Whatever you do, try doing supersets it'll get you done with your workout in half the time!

And I don't work out at all, ever! hahahahahaha!

i believe that thing is called a bar. biggrin:

that sounds more like a hypertrophy(sp?) workout or more of a tone workout. A mass workout is like 3-5 reps

Here is my workout:

Start off by warming up. Run approx. 3-5 on treadmill (easy pace) and then go stretch. Stretching is very important.

(Benchpress) After that I usually bench 3 sets of 8-10 reps. MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT MAX YOURSELF OUT!

(Dumbell Curl) Curl (1) arm at a time, usually 3 sets of 10-15 reps. GOOD TECHNIQUE AND POSTURE WILL RESULT IN BETTER RESULTS.

(Tricep pull down) Do 3 sets of 10-15 reps. AGAIN, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE TECHNIQUE AND GOOD POSTURE.

(Sit ups - Push ups) Do as many reps until muscle failure.

After that, run at least (1) mile.

---

On a different day, I would either run most of the time, do mostly sit ups and lower body workouts.

Good for you man. I'm in the military, and could probably barely run that much! biggrin:

that is a myth, squats dont help speed that much you really dont need strength in your quads for running.

You need: Hips, calves, hammys and a little bit of quads but not much

Sigh.

No matter what your height / weight, you have to follow a specific routine and
STICK WITH IT. That's easier said than done.

Now that we have that out of the way, we can proceed to discuss what kind
of training you could most benefit from; be it endurance, strength or a mix
of both, resistance.

The only differences between the three are the number of sets and reps
you would have to do, the weight you want to use for the exercises and
maybe even slightly different exercises altogether. I know this shouldn't
come as a surprise to you, but watch your nutrition: make sure you get
a high amount of protein, mid carb (aside from when you need the quick
energy boost) and mid fat. Get enough sleep and drink plenty of water.

Carbohydrates are fine, but if you take too much of them, you won't let
your body use up any other kind of nutrients: if you have a mid carb, mid
fat meal, your body will use up the carbs first, storing the fat. You do not
want that. On the other hand, if you eat a meal with little to no carbs and
mid fat, it will use up your own body's fat and take in the fat you just gave
it (just make sure it isn't bad fat - saturated fats suck ass). This is why
Atkin's Diet works. In any case, let's move on to the work-out plan...

You want to work out as follows: the reasoning behind it will be next.

Monday: Chest, Shoulders and Back
Wednesday: Legs
Friday: Arms, Trapezius and Abdominals

The reason for the unusual separation is simple but long to type. Let me
just put it this way: when you work out your chest, most of the effort comes
from your chest and a small bit comes from the shoulders (depending on
what kind of chest exercise you are doing) and even smaller from the tricep.
You COULD work out the shoulders and triceps that day as well, but why do
it when you've already used them a bit ? The shoulders could be placed on
wednesdays but your legs already take a long enough time to work out so
it really comes down to personal choice. When you work out your back, you
don't push; you pull. Therefore, no conflict exists between the chest/triceps
and the biceps/back. Your arms are given the entire rest of the week to
relax. The trapezius and abdominals can be exercised on different days as
well but I prefer doing the "miscellaneous" exercises on friday. The legs
needs no explanation...

For a list of exercises you can do for each muscle, consult http://www.bodybuilding.com

Have fun!
