My first hold of Baby Daisy
Looking to interview Dads Who Hate Caillou
Hey guys! I'm writing an article for the men's magazine MEL Magazine, and I'd like to hear from some dads about why Caillou is the worst. Feel free to DM me or email me! Quinn.Myers@melindustries.com
[While we're here, also looking to interview dads on how they handle controlling the A/C - what they set it at and why, etc.]
More than happy to plug your blog in the piece too -- get that SEO, baby!
Volume; to spread out the week, or to bunch in a day?
My current workout is pretty simple. It's all compound movements with variants of the big lifts for supplement. Each exercise is done in 5x5's. My main goal is to be strong. I'm not interested in competition or being a body builder.
Having said that, would I have greater strength gains if I spread out the body parts during the week? For example, would it be better to have one massive day of legs a week or would it be better to have 2 smaller leg work outs a week? I've read literature on the topic and their seems to be two camps of thought
If you're curious, this is a link to my workout https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lZISkM_APTvQLZgMIFGFpaCmHvnGHzBZSInhdNtKgUI/edit#gid=0
Any other comments about my workout, beyond my initial question are welcome and appreciated also. Too much fluff? Not enough? Good exercise choices? Bad ones?
Beginner Tips Anybody?
So I'm 6'0, about 260lbs dont know my body fat % but I'm sure its high. I have a very weak core, bad posture so any tips on strengthening that would be much appreciated. I would usually use 15lb dumbells to do curls, squats, shoulder press & back rows. I want to maybe get to using around 25lb dumbells, but lose weight at the same time.
Here's my ideal routine, leave any suggestions :)
4 Days a week Day 01 - 30 Mins Jump Rope, 20 Mins Bodyweight Excercises Day 02 - Lift Weights 3x12 , 10 Min Jump Rope Day 03 - 40 Mins Cardio (basketball, jump rope,jogging) Day 04 - Lift Weights 3x12 , 10 Min Jump Rope
I want to go from 260lbs to a healthy 220lbs
