There's a couple of things here that are news to me... what kind of routine would you suggest?

Ok, Some really great stuff from both you guys, so I'm tying you both into this just to take a quick look and serve as a better base of discussion: Latest Drawing Board Result: I work out at a Home Gym that I'm building so right now the equipment is as follows: - 1 x EZ Bar - 1 x Barbell - 2 x Dumbbell - 1 x Inc/Dec/Flat…

"too much saturated fats" at a later age can play a little havoc with cholesterol. No you won't drop dead but like most things moderation is an important factor.

Nice, OK. So if I've understood the chart right, that's something around 4 or 5 sets in total per exercise? Have I massively misunderstood that or is that right? I'm really sorry you're going to get barraged with questions now!

Right now I'm cutting, I've got about 6 weeks left. After which I move on to a weightlifting routine, designed to add some serious power and strength behind my martial arts (so I need to stay relatively athletic.). Squats, Bench Press and Deadlifts are all incorporated into my routine but yes I'm isolating with muscle…

This charts a nice summary, are you finding this is working quite well for you then?

Holy crap, you're right, I didn't realize how long ago you actually replied.

It is and it isn't, check out what I've just posted. This was an old post of mine that suddenly exploded, I'm spending all this time trying to explain anything so instead I've posted a comment that starts over. Sorry for the confusion!

Ok, guys. Tell you what. If you check it out, I posted this way back when. So I've made a few tweaks and learned a few things since. Now as everyone takes my original post into mind when replying, we begin tripping over each other. I have absolutely no idea why my old forum post suddenly exploded. But I'm literally not,…

I've seen it, but it's not the right goal. I might have to make some additions to my original post, there's been quite a bit of developing discussion!

So I've thrown in HIIT sessions on the Heavy Bag, a Martial Arts heavy bag (so full size allowing kicking as well as punching - full body workout is what I'm getting at). So this essentially was supposed to be my "To do martial arts, one must, DO martial arts." aspect. The workout based around these HIIT sessions was…

When I say compound I'm referring to the grouping of muscles, I wouldn't lift with my chest what I lift with my wrist curls for example. So for compound situations the workout would be a little harder. Don't worry :). Try checking out Bodybuilding.com. TRR is quite important. Or at least it is for me to identify goals and…

Absolutely, I've tweaked it down to eight now, I don't go for ten and I stay above six. The reason as I mentioned to bellator is that I'm creating an artificial conflict, essentially I'm aiming for somewhere in between building power/strength and explosive/speed for my martial arts. Check out my last message above. But…

Yeah I've started building a home gym, so your spot on about the equipment for now. Also, the volume, which I should have mentioned now that I think about it is a sort of artificial conflict that I'm creating. I'm a martial artist, so I need to build power and strength, but I need to steer away from slowing myself down…

Graduated a few months back, exams/buying my first home = comfort/stress eating. Didn't think much of it, saw a photo of me doing a BBQ.................... now on a one man mission to fight flab and handle stress. Feel free to add!

No. You hang on to those.

Trr = Total Rep Range Yes, 10 sets of 8-10 reps. Following a program by Kris Gethin, on Bodybuilding.com. He drew it from Dorian Yate's German Volume training.... is there a problem here? No, I'm not a new lifter...

Fifteen minutes a day won't be long enough mate, that will just about cover a beginners HIIT session. Try heading over to http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/find-a-plan.html, and get yourself looking into some professionally written plans that are appropriate for your stage and get an idea of what to expect and what the…

The fact that you recognise that there are better choices and you want to make them says you're going to do awesome, simply by putting one foot in front of the other, one step at a time, for the rest of your time you're going to make the right things a habit and sooner or later we'll all be asking for your help and how you…

You can do it! Above person is right though, you might want to check if there's something you're missing if you're stuck on a platue (is that how you spell that?) Feel free to add!

Open diary here, as far as I know... I didn't even know you could make it private... anyway. Add me peoples!

Great job! Feel free to add! Accountability is always good!

London! Hit me up!

Lifter here!

If he's after Free weights, check out the different kinds of Bars available. You've got things like the EZ bar and The Tricep Bar. More weight is the easy option, but make sure the increments aren't massive otherwise he won't be able to grow towards using them safely. You might want to think about weight belts for weighted…
