| What would be better for weight loss?Here are just some general examples of what my workouts consist of:I am overweight and have tried 2 different workout routines regarding sets and reps.Both routines have helped me lose weight in the past, but I'm not too sure what to stick with.I use this format generally for all equipment usedRoutine 1 - Max weight 10 reps 3 sets Alternate different muscle every other day Chest/Triceps/Shoulder Monday Bicep/Back/Legs Tuesday etc. 30+ cardio session after each workout. Average in 5-8 different equipment usage.Routine 2 - Less weight Max repetitions 3 sets 25 reps per each equipment used Muscle groups same as above 30+ minute cardio sessionI eat well 5-6 times a day with lots of greens and fruit.I'm currently doing the 2nd routine.I forgot to add that I do take rest days on sundays. Since I work out different core muscle groups every other day, I have one day to rest that certain group of muscles. |

| Routine 1 - Max weight 10 reps 3 sets is deffinetly much better 4 you. You just have no doubt in this. I see you have good guidelines reg. diet too. Steel I m quite sure you can benefit from having a complete program which will guarantee you success. I see many people fail of they advance too slowly because they are just getting confused from different advertisements and false claims.

| Your first routine will more likely put on weight in the form of muscle cos this routine will build muscle. The 2nd routine will cut you up more. It sounds as though you may be overworking you muscles though. If you're training 5 times a week say, do day 1-Back, 2nd day - upper legs,3rd day - chest and biceps, 4th day - shoulders and triceps5th day - abs, lower legsAnd put a 30min workout on all of these workouts, do the weights part for no more than 40mins if you working out on your own. Hope this helps |

| Aloha from Down Unda!You've seemed to have already set yersef up for a lifetime of overdevelopment.Seems like the maximum involvement should be 3 times per week of the shorter routine & then taper off to maintain exercise without OVERdevelopment.Best wishes~ |

| Whenever you are trying to lose weight, you should concentrate on these three things which all work together in providing a healthier and quicker weight loss goal for yourself. I have found this combination really successful in my weight loss plans. The first thing is exercising and how much you can put forth into it. The more you exercise, the more results you will see. The next thing is dieting and the calorie intake. If you exercise more, technically you could eat more? Always watch what you eat.Now the last step in a good weight loss plan is always a good diet pill that can help you get to the end of the road. I have found Proactol which is a natural herbal diet pill to be the best around. It's an appetite suppressant along with being a fat blocker which stops up to 28% of fat you eat. Read up about it at TheWeightLossPlace.com where I saved money on it. Proactol really works well with exercising which gives you plenty of energy to perform. Along with that you diet will be affected by Proactol due to the appetite suppressant and fat blocker. If you slip up on meals, the fat blocker kicks in. It's really great to stop food cravings.Concentrate on those three things and the combination is deadly for the fat cells in your body. Good luck and I hope this helps. |
