Hello, I started going to the gym a little over a month ago. I started with machines and want to continue with them for a bit to keep consistency but I want to make sure I’m doing the right things…here’s what I do:
  1. Day A: Upper Body
    -Chest press: 3sets/12rels/90lbs
    -Shoulder: 3sets/10reps/30lbs
    -lat pulldown: 3sets/10reps/115lbs
    -Seated row: 4sets/8reps/100lbs
    -Pec fly: 3sets/10reps/85lbs
    -pec Rear : 3 sets/10reps/70lbs
2 Day B: Lower Body
-Hib abduction in and out : 3sets/10reps/220lbs
-Seated leg press 3sets/12reps/210lbs
-Seated leg curl: 3sets/12reps/90lbs
-Glute: 3sets/10reps/130lbs
-Calf: 2sets/50sec./210lbs

3 Day C:
-run 1 mile
-Abs
-exercises I wasn’t able to do because of time or whatever reason.

Day 1: A
Day 2: B
Day 3: C
Day 4: rest
Day 5: A
Day 6: B
Day 7: C
Next day rest and then repeat.

The weight is what I used last session. I try to go up every time. Sometimes it’s doable sometimes I have to stick to the previous weight. I also make sure to be as consistent with this as possible sometimes I miss a day but continue the next day with whatever the missed day is meant to be. And I use an Ab machine almost every day. Set at 70-90lbs, 3 times, with 20 reps.

I do want to start using Free Weights eventually. They just get busy at my gym very quickly and kind of intimidating.

Does anyone have any tips? Am I overdoing it or not doing enough or not right? Thank you guys for your help
