over training?

[DaddyX]

Guiness - thats what i was thinking. maybe he meant 4-5 exercises with that many sets instead of just 4-5 sets. otherwise thats messed up

 

[Willyumyum]

is that 4 or 5 working sets, or like 3 warmups and one working set?
for me 4-5 working sets would be overtraining.

YUM

boldtongue - 4-5 sets i can do in 10 minutes. now 4 exexrcises, 4 sets each would take me longer

 

[boldtongue]

now that we have that understood. What do you think now?

It's okay to add a couple other exercises into the mix since your doing the one bodypart a day workout, but it's always better to slightly undertrain than overtrain.

For added intensity try supersetting.

 

[Guiness]

boldtongue- how were we supposed to know you do 4 exercises at 4-5 sets apiece?

 

[wetback]

Explain supersetting please.

 

[Bulk King]

What an original routine. hahahahaha

i hope you are not serious if you think you are overtraining.............you are definetly undertraining. if i only did 4-5 sets per body part my workouts would take 10 minutes

exactly, crank up the intensity. within that same time period you should try to at least double the number of sets. also, what exercises do you do? if you just do 4-5 sets of the same exercise per body part than your not getting a complete workout, but if you do 3-5 different exercises per body part and another 3-4 sets per exercise than you get a much better, and more complete workout.

Mondays: Incline bench 4 sets 10-12
Flat Bench 4 sets 10-12
Flys 4 sets 10-12
Dips 4 set as many as possible.
I do just as many sets for each body part on other days.
Damn I did not know I had to spell everything out for most of you. I can not very the weight to much because my hand is not yet ready to handle max weights that are involved in low reps. Yes its a simple routine, like I said I do it for my enjoyment ONLY! If you have any other worth while advice I would like to hear it. The question again: I do not think I am overtraining but I was aking you what you though. My intensity is maxed out every time I lift.
