Im doing the Waterbury Method just for something different i had been doing the Brad Pitt preparing for Fightclub workout and had fun and had small gains from it but im stepping up.
Im about 5'11 and 108 kilos which sounds like heaps but im pretty solid. I have been working out for about 5 months and have really gained size and toned up. So ill post down what i was doing before and then ill post after workout today how i dealt with DAY 3 of the Waterbury method
This is what i was doing
Monday - Chest
· 25 pushups
· Nautilus chest press
· Nautilus incline press
· Pec deck machine (chest fly)
Tuesday - Back
· 5 pullups
· Seated rows
· Lat pulldowns
· T-bar rows
Wednesday - Shoulders
· Arnold dumbbell press (like a military press, but start the action with palms facing in and end the action with palms facing out)
· Lateral raises
· Front raises
Thursday - Biceps/Triceps
· Nautilus curl machine
· EZ cable curls
· Hammer curls
· Tricep pushdowns
Friday - Cardio
Walking or (preferably) running on the treadmill for 45 minutes at 65% to 75% of your maximum heart rate
Saturday/Sunday – Rest
I added a few variations in when i wanted to like Squats,Deads,Bench and shit.
Bit worried by that electric shock feeling when i did deads the other day but it should be fine as there is no pain and its only happened once.

I know that feeling i get it in arm occasionaly, have done for 30 years i always thought it was just a nerve getting trapped as i moved arrm out straight, never worried about it much but would be interested to know what does actualy cause it.davecw wrote:It was a sensation when i pushed myself with deads.swanso5 wrote:electric shock?

Swan this is how i want to structure working out weeks
Might chuck a Ab sesh in the night or even another cardio in at night.
