No nothing wrong with the previous suggestions and I’ve been using the advice in my home training. I was just asking for new suggestions with gyms reopen in 2 weeks I’ll get access to more equipment

Jesus mate only asking for advice. Chill out

Thanks pal looks good. Yes I’ll give the power cleans a miss

Gyms reopen in 2 weeks in the uk. I’ll be going 2 times per week due to my work shifts and having kids. Any advice on what type of workout to do on both days? I’m looking to build muscle

Ha ha yes it’s another word for bum 😆

Just been for my first run. Crikey had to stop and walk as was blowing out of my *kitten*! Hopefully fitness picks up 😃

At the moment I'm not sure. Maybe only around 2500. Definitely not enough I know. [/quote] Start using this app to track your food intake per day to see how many calories you are eating and increase by a few hundred per day and see if weight increases slightly over time

How many calories are you eating per day?

Couple of runs per week 3-5 miles was thinking of doing

Yes I’ve found pull ups having a positive impact, don’t do them every day though just when ever I feel like. All down to diet though I suppose to see fat loss as just been too slack recently due to lockdown will be more motivated once gyms reopen

Update. Starting a slight calorie deficit today and going to start going for a jog/run twice per week. Not done any cardio in ages so will be a struggle! I’ve read before that running can affect muscle growth any truth in this?

Thanks for all the info 👍

Yes that’s correct. Week 1 30kg Week 4 40kg Will increase weight once hit 3 sets of 8. Not got much more weight to add but gyms reopen in 4 weeks so can push on further

Sorry got that wrong. Yes squat and deadlift once per week.

Workout A Bench x3 Row x3 Squat x3 Workout B Shoulder press x3 Pull up x3 Deadlift x3

Barbell. Limited equipment due to gyms not open at the moment. Squat bench and press twice per week. 3 sets each working in 5-8 rep range. Looking to leave 1-2 reps in the tank per set

Full body workout twice per week due to work shift pattern and kids. 3 sets and 4 exercises per workout doing squats, row, bench press, overhead press. Always look to increase reps and weight at each workout

Thanks some great advice👍 I really don’t fancy cutting as would feel real skinny and weak at a much lower weight. Think recomp is my best option with training hard and a very slight calorie deficit and some weekly cardio

Current physique

I’d say body fat is probably 25-30% and weigh 184 pounds. I’ll upload a pic

I’m planning on taking up running as used to enjoy it in my younger years but stopped when got into lifting weights but will start doing a few runs per week along with weight training

Should I throw in some cardio too?

Today’s workout Overhead press x3 Pull up x3 Squat x3 Short workout due to night shift

How many times per week are you training? Well done on the muscle building 👍

Today’s workout Deadlift x3 Bench x3 Row x3 Curl x3
