Will I See Results?

Post by Rmbxr9 »

How's everyone doing.
I'm curious if I follow a strict weight/strength training program for, say 2 months, if I'll see any results in that time.

I know it depends on a lot, but the fact I could or might would be motivation to actually get started.

I'm 27, 6'0 203LBS
I'm a person who starts a weight program, does it for a week, and then stops for a month, then say I'm going to restart... do it 2 days, stop.
Etc.

But I think if I knew there'd be a change I'd stick with it.

I'm basically trying to lose some chest flabbiness. and tone up.

At the gym I do the following:
Incline Bench Press - 80 Lbs
Lat Pull Down - 110 Lbs
Standard Bench Press - 95 Lbs
Chest Fly - 90 Lbs
Row(?) - (Where you sit and pull the weight straight back.) 80 Lbs
And another machine that I don't know the name of, where you put the pads on your forearms and lift up like you're flapping your wings.

As you can see, I have no idea what I'm doing...

I am a person where too much info is a bad thing. I would get to the gym and go do this then that and then not know what to do next. This is the one area in life that I must plan because I get overwhelmed with all the choices. You have to figure out what type of workout you are going to do and follow through. Get a notebook and make a worksheet of what you are going to do and for how many reps and sets. You will have a guide to follow and you will also see progress. There are weight and cardio programs that you can get from a certain infomerical that has everything all thought out for you. You may not see pounds drop or inches melt away but you can see the increase of your bench press. Then one day while walking by a store window, you will notice some hot dude looking back and realize that it is you. So take pictures every month so you can see the progression.

Maybe having a workout buddy or heading to the gym for a group workout class could help. I like the comradely of the dojo and train karate nearly ever night. Even if I dont want to workout, I do want to be with friends
