    3 hours too much for full body weightlifting 3 days/week?

    @godisworking101 I lift 3 hours a week full body. Your routine is terrible inefficient and loaded with tons of wasted exercises. U do not need 3 variations of curls. Hell u don’t need curls at all to grow biceps. Do u have access to a pull up bar?

    DB Press Increase

    @lucyflor do 40s for the first set and then 35s for the rest. You can shorten your rest periods to help bridge the gap too. Shorter rest is another way to progress.

    How many exercises do you do for a muscle group and why?

    @orthodox_christian I do PPL Mon-Friday and bleed to the next week. 5-6 exercises a day. Sessions take 1 hour or less. I keep my weekends off for my kids sports and family activities. Push 1: incline bench, DB shoulder press, cable Flyes, DB Lateral Raise, Tricep isolation Pull 1: Pull up...

    How to implement deload week

    @eleanorwhite i prefer to just take some days off for my deload. If i go into a session with the idea of doing half the amount of sets I feel unfufilled and either do more than I should or feel like it was a waste.

    Struggling with eating … too many sweets

    @messagesoflove The sweets is from the alcohol. Alcohol has so much sugar that your body is still craving it. Just try to stop having them in your house and it will get easier over time.

    Says here that the farmer’s carry is a full-body workout. Can I just do farmer’s carries every day?

    @dinneratsix there is no one exercise for all of time. Work a program. The exercises you dont like are the ones you likely need to be doing more of.

    If you had to pick ONE cable chest fly variation below, which would you pick and why?

    @blondie977 it depends what you are doing for chest otherwise. Like if you only do incline bench then I would take a cable fly that hits the lower pec more. I like middle the best personally.

    Looking to start P.H.U.L. Without being a fool

    @manimalcrackers you can do the extensions and curls with bands with the setup you have there. for leg press I would do bulgarian split squats. AS for conventional deadlift I would suggest bumper plates with pads or just do RDL's as you are already doing.

    Took a Dexa Scan before resuming gym [M35 / 96 Kgs / 6'1 ft - 30% body fat, overweight]

    @jake99901 Yeah man just pick a routine and get to work. Run the same routine for 6 months and adjust. The scale and mirror will tell u everything u need to know. Good luck. Progress becomes addicting

    finally deadlifted w/o pain the next day

    @sharkbait13 If you are having lower back pain in your deadlift you are likely not hinging correctly. Took me a very long time to get the hinge pattern down correctly. Prior to that I always tweaked my back.

    @jake99901 Stop looking for the easy way and get to work. It becomes easier once u are consistent with things. I don’t use apps to track calories but it’s been over 2 years since I started. Just get to work. Use Boostcamp to find a program and track your progress

    I cant lift more than 10 kilos in bicep curls. It’s been like this for 8 months

    @vincentleo do chin ups as well. You need to do alternative exercises to curls and then u will get some gains. Also eat at surplus to get gains.

    Rate my [improved] plan!

    @broken649 well in my opinion your plan is not going to give you the base strength you are looking for. Get under the bar you can do it man

    Rate my [improved] plan!

    @broken649 This is not the beginner fitness routine fyi. That routine is essentially greyskulls which is full body compound BARBELL movements three time a week. You are likely working out too much and doing a bunch of dumbell variations for no good reason. Get under the barbell man it will...
