Your routine sounds pretty good, as for an inner pec workout, try Dumbell Flyes (likes Dumbell press, with your dumbell heads facing your feet and head instead of each other). -------------- - Its never about how much you can lift, or how many reps you do. Its just about doing it, and doing it right. - If your hungry all the time, your not eating enough. And anyways, being hungry sucks. ~Brad~

You need fuel in order to have the strength. As far as routines, why not begin with one of the programs here at FTs. It's a great way to start out before heading off into a hardcore regimen.

By the way rev...did you get both emails I sent you...just wondering. -------------- I have seen the enemy.....and it is me. Mojo_67
