Bodybuilding workout routine

JustinE22 Posts: 1,312 Joined: 2003/09/18	2005/03/12, 05:34 PM Right now I'm on a cut and I've got my week off coming up after that I'm going to resume my cut. I've been using the workout routines here on FT but I just don't feel they're working good enough for me. I liked the 12 week mass program but I'm on the general one right now and it's just stayed the same the whole way thru and i don't feel there's enough exercises for some muscle groups. I've pretty much got my diet in check so now I want to work on my routine in the gym as I haven't paid much attention to it in a while. So I was wondering if anyone had some input on an outline for a good workout routine while on a cut from a bodybuilders perspective. thanks.

(this way I feel more focused and do not cheat, a mental game I play with myself, but it works0. Now the reason I say this, is on contest dieting and training, a big change can be dangerous. I think I would wait till getting done with your current cut. You may opt to add more supersets, etc. but within the same framework of your current regimine. -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.... bb1fit@freetrainers.com

You will be coming back with a bit less intensity anyway, so you could ease your body into a new workout protocol. ============ Quoting from JustinE22: Even after my week off next week?..So I should still view that as the same cut. ============= -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.... bb1fit@freetrainers.com

It breaks down the physics and also has a demonstration of every exercise. Whenever I feel like getting a new routine, I find that site very helpful. Best part - it's free! The diet is going good! :big_smile:
