3 or 4 day?

Hey All, I've been weight training for a while and would consider myself more experienced than a beginner. That said, not experienced enough to work this out myself..... Is a 3 day a week or 4 day a week program best? I usually do a 3 day program but have recently had some good results doing first 4...

Hey Swans05 - I can deadlift. Am doing the ones where you hinge forward from the waist at the moment (Romanian Deadlifts????). Can you explain what you mean by single leg work? Is that single leg squats using dumbells where you have your back leg raised on a bench and are in a lunge position? Thanks.

Hey Swans05, Not sure what the problem is - any pressure on shoulders just really hurts, even a light weight. I do have a dodgy neck which I've had treated by a chiro, so not sure if it's related to this. Find front squats really difficult too. Just holding the weight up - again the pressure across ...

Squats

I can't squat with a barbell on shoulders as I have a dodgy upper back. For some reason, front squats hurt upper back/body also??? I know that to be really effective you need to squat close to your body weight. Are there any alternatives I can do that are comparable to the compound movement of squat...

Didn't go which is probably a good thing....nearly had a heartattack in the last 5 minutes and I'm sure the neighbors thought someone was being attacked by the amount of screaming coming from the house.

What about Fraser Gehrig?? He is a legend! 100% testosterone.

You can have Reiwoldt though. Most overrated player in the game. Can't kick to save his life. Swap him for the delectable O'Loughlin.

But remember - Big bustling Barry was ours originally....we taught him all he knows!

Swanso5 you seem to be confiming what I thought. But for the blondes out there (that would be me) can you please clarify. Are you saying that weight training is more effective than cardio at fat burning and this should be your focus? I'm currently doing a 4 day weight training split with 3 HIIT sess...

So lets say I focus on losing fat. How many HIIT sessions should I be doing weekly? I always thought that 3 x week was enough, especially when combined with weight training, which I thought was supposed to be better at making your metabolism more efficent (when compared to cardio). Am now totally co...

How much cardio?

Hi All, I'm trying to lose some body fat and gain some muscle. I'm an ectomorph so find gaining muscle really difficult. I have been working out consistently for the last few months doing a 4 day weights split with 3 sessions of HIIT on the bike. Have made some small muscle gains. Still having troub...
