Hey Everyone!
I am new here and going to try out the NROLFW. I am pretty active lifting 2-3 times a week and about 2 cardio sessions. I am use to doing the hour long lifting class at gold's gym called body bump. I decided to try this because I am bored with body pump and no longer seeing results. I loved what I was reading this book and after lurking on this site have decided to give it a try.
I have done four workouts from stage 1 so far. Against what I am reading here I have decided to start at workout 5 of stage one because I just couldn't bring myself to start at only 2 sets. Sorry! I just plan on adding more of the 5 and 6 workouts. I also may add cardio intervals after this week.
I hope I am posting in the right spot here!
age 25
height 5'8
weight 145
bicep 11.25
thigh 22
waist 27
chest 35
hip 38.5
workout A
squat 3 x 10x 85
push up 3 x 8 x bw
seated row 3 x 10 x 40
step up 3 x 10 x 40
prone jackknife 3 x 15 x bw
workout B
deadlift 3 x 10 x 85
dumbbell shoulder press 1 x 10 x 40 and 2 x 10 x 30
wide-grip lat pulldown 3 x 10 x 65
lunge 1 x 10 x 40 and 2 x 10 x 30
swiss ball crunch 3 x 15 x bw
Then for the special workouts I do all five one more time through. I have found that I can only do 10 reps of each... I am hoping that means that I am using roughly the right amount of weight if I am this fatigued at the end!
Sorry for the long post! I hope I am posting this to the right place. I am about to head to the gym here in a bit to do workout B.
