Worked out here and there previous to this. Did some running and got my lungs and heart into decent shape. Started focusing on better diet. Looked for foods with the most protein content, glanced at carbs to keep them in mind though.
Wondering what suggestions could be made to me working out. I just finished 2 weeks off that the site suggested. Funny thing is as it happened, I went on salary and changed to evening shift at work. :) Daytimes are all mine. Working strictly with free weights right now though in my apt. The main question I have is: With my body weight at about 145-150 lbs (and my height at 5'7" er 8"), what is the most effective order to workout my muscle groups in? I was just kinda rotating according to the way my body felt. I would like to know what it takes to get conditioned to be at the higher competition levels. Keep in mind, I'm only a few months into a steady freeweight workout. Previous to this I worked out whenever I had free time and could get to the gym. At the gym, my routine was usually about 15 minutes of cardio / running on the treadmill, an hour of chest, arms and back... legs added probably about every other time, and then another 10-15 minutes of cardio for cool down. Is that not right, when I read about the suggestions for minimal fat maintainence cardio seems as though its only a few days out of the workout instead of a part of each workout. Can anyone guide me some. Thanks.
