skinny boy in need of a workout plan
well i'm new to this board, i'm 23, 6'1 and about 160lbs. I was chunky as a kid and went on a big diet when I was around 15 and lived off of healthy choice frozen dinners and spent hours on the elliptical and lost about 40lbs. So although I am skinny now, I still have a "flubbery" stomach and no matter how many different workout plans I try it doesn't seem to flatten any. I don't really enjoy working out at a gym and there isn't one close to where i live now. i have some dumbbells and was looking online for some workout plan for dumbbells but didn't have any luck. I found examples of exercises to do but no set plans with sets/reps i should do for each exercise and on what days. I purchased the "urban rebounder" last week and have been using that for cardio so now i'm just hoping to find a routine to use for working on muscles. and if anyone knows of any sites with pics for good warm up routines please let me know, sometimes back gets sore after doing pushups or ab work and i guess it's because i don't do any stretching or warmup beforehand. well, hope to hear from someone soon! thanks!
- program wise search "The Wtaerbury Method" where we may need to substitute a few exercises but would be ideal for you
- post a sample diet plan that you follow as i'm sure we can improve that too
- your lowr back gets sore from inhibited glutes i.e they don't work and weak low abs / pelvic floor
- never stretch the lower back...ever
