Help With Fitness Plan

Post by xICooRsYIx »

Hey guys,

names Corey, im 21 years old and am currently around 145 pounds. I would love to start taking diet and fitness more serious. Over the years i would go on little spurs, none lasting more than a month of really eating healthy, and taking time to work out. What i was doing then obviously wasnt working, so im looking to change things up a bit this time.

I visited doctor last week, and he says to me "Corey your looking thin". So i thank him and he then tells me "it wasnt a compliment". So i think its about time i ditch this teenage body and take health and fitness more seriously.

Today i went out and bought a iron gym pull up bar, and a resistance tube kit. I bought these because i would really like to do all work outs from home. I feel like the gym just doesnt do it for me. I work full time as a cook, and the hours are pretty rough. So its hard for me to find time to make it to the gym. I think that building a morning workout routine would be best for me.

So question is, with the equipment i have so far, what would be best option as far as workout routines. Like how many days a week, and how long. Also are their any special methods of pairing specific exercises?

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to ask more questions if needed, im not too knowledgeable when it comes to fitness so im sure ive missed some key factors.

Thanks
-Corey

Hey Corey. Glad you found your way here and welcome. I cann't help you with a fitness plan but someone will be along soon who can. I bought the Iron Gym this week myself. I am LOVING it. Have you tried it yet? Mine wouldn't fit in the shed ( where I work out) and I don't have the right kinda door frames in the house so husband had to make a frame for it in the yard. Again, Welcome and I'd like to know how you progress.

A pull up bar and tubes?

Try this.

Bodyweighted Squats, 2 sets 10 reps

Bodyweighted Lunged, 2 sets 10 reps

Bodyweighted Deadlifts, 2 sets 10 reps

Press Ups, 2 sets 10 reps.

Pull-ups, 2 sets 10 reps or as many as you can do up to 10

Tube Shrugs, standing on the Tubes, 2 sets 10 reps.

Planks 30 seconds.

See how that works out.

Oh and do it 3 times a week on alternate days.
