I did resistance training for more than 10 years of life. All I could think of was how to look bigger.
Now that very same thing has become an obstacle to cardio.
pecs, lats are very heavy. I can feel the muscle weight while running.
Now I wish I can find a way to lose the extra muscle mass.

Hi, psychiatrist has asked me to do cardio to keep anxiety levels under control. I have never done any form of cardio before this. I have done weight training all life. Problem is I can't seem to run for more than 10 mins. Its not lungs which is the limiting factor here instead its legs. Both calves...

Okay i will do what you said and by the way I was able to reach a good amount of flexibility some 10 years back by doing yoga. I kept on doing yoga but I didn't do any forward bend poses for a long long time.

I guess I will keep trying and be patient.

hamstring muscles are extremely stiff/tight.

I simply can't do any forward bending yoga poses.

Do you know any exercises that will loosen hamstrings ?

I followed you routine for the first time today.

I can hardly walk

I will come back after 6 weeks (Thursday, 5 July 2018) for a new routine.

Thanks a lot.

@Boss Man
Sorry to bother you again but I see no exercises for pectoral/chest.
Did you avoid it coz I dont have a bench ?
Can I do push ups ?

No need, because row and press movements, work biceps and triceps indirectly. Direct stuff could be added in at a later date, but I feel you don't need it initially for the first around 6 weeks, until your workout is established and you are hitting around about your max lift for reps on all the wei...

Just one question. No direct arm workout ?

@ Boss Man
Any ideas ?

Have you got any ability to purchase a bench. It would not be something that would massively hinder your ability to do a home workout with the equipment you've got, but it would be useful to you. We can still proceed with this situation anyway if you couldn't do that, as there are standing exercise...

By tricep bar I mean the bar which is used to perform Lying Triceps Extensions

No I dont have a workout bench. I do the exercises lying on the floor.

I want a dumbbell only workout too. Will follow this thread.

Hi,
I need a home workout routine.

I got

2 adjustable dumbbells
1 triceps bar
8 20 pounds plates
2 20 pounds fixed dumbbells.

main goal is to gain mass.

Looks like a nice routine! Have you tried "I Cant Believe It's Not Butter" spray yet?? I don't know whats in it, but I believe it has zero fat and calories. Tastes like the real thing to me! That product has not reached India yet. ATM we can buy things processed butter, processed cheese, ...

Sorry to hear that, but at least you know the cause and can hopefully correct it now. Are you at least working out? Yes I am still working out but instead of doing splits I am doing full body workouts 3 times a week. I am following this routine http://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/jason-blaha-...
