What does your typical bodybuilding workout look like?

  • Dick Nixon posted: 31 May at 4:02 pm

    I have no set regiment. I know, this is bad! But I just do whatever I feel up to doing. I typically go in 3-4 times a week and then lift a little bit at home.

    The only consistant thing I do is on Wednesdays, I do “explosive training” where the point is to work fast-twitch muscle fiber with three quick reps of low weight and then a whole lot of sets (typically, eight). I mostly want to do that to improve my benches. Increasing fast twitch muscle strength helps get past the “sticky spot” when benching, and it is also a good break from the usual crap I do.

    I don’t mean to sound arrogant, here, but lifting is a bit of an art for me. If I don’t feel like doing leg presses, I don’t do them. If I don’t want to do arm curls, I don’t do them. I am still packing on muscle, so I must be doing something right.

    Anyway, here is what was typical for me when I was actually on a set regiment:
    Reps:Sets
    10:3 Bench presses
    10:3 Fly
    10:3 Anything that works my delts.
    10:3 Arm Curls
    10:3 Tricep extensions
    10:3 Wrist curls

    That was on my arms and chest days, here is what my legs day looked like:
    10:2 Squats
    10:3 Leg Presses
    10:3 Hamstring extensions
    10:3 Calve-press

    Here is when I did my back and shoulders:
    10:3 Rowing
    10:3 Laterral pull
    10:3 “reverse fly” (I don’t know what to call it! It’s like the fly but with your back muscles)
    10:3 Shoulder shrugs
    10:3 Dead lifts or something else

    I usually work out an hour at a time, but I haven’t been going as often, lately. I am putting more efforts in learning to swim than body building.

    Here is a workout I put together for myself:

    The following healthy living recommendations will help you if you’re trying to lose weight, tone up your muscles, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:

    *1) Burn more calories then you’re consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity minus the Thermic Effect of Food (TEF). A website that explains this formula in more detail and will help you determine how many calories you need to reach or maintain a certain weight is at

    Get an online, desktop, or cell phone diet and fitness calculator. This will allow you to easily calculate the above formula, set goals, log your daily calorie consumption, and register your physical activities.

    Set realistic goals for your ideal body weight. Here are two websites that will calculate a suggested body weight:
    Adults:
    Teens/Children:

    It is difficult and unhealthy to lose more than one or two pounds per week. There are 3,500 calories in a pound. If you eat 500 fewer calories per day for a week you will lose one pound. If you burn through exercise 500 more calories per day for a week you will lose one pound.

    Here are two articles on how to break through a weight loss plateau:

    *2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.

    Do not try fad diets or diet pills. Avoid “High Glycemic Load Carbs” (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as potatoes) and drink lots of water. Read this article for more information on high GL Carbs:

    *3) Perform cardiovascular, core, and/or strength training on most days. Read a book or find a certified trainer to make sure you’re doing all exercises correctly.

    The following is a website and numerous articles on cardiovascular, core, and strength training:
    Exercise Prescription on the Net

    *4) Get plenty of sleep. Sleep experts say most adults need between seven and nine hours of sleep each night for optimum performance, health, and safety.

    *5) Educate yourself continually on health issues and make a life long commitment to good health. A great free publication is “Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2005”. A reputable test you can take to measure your biological age is at
    Look at all areas where you can enhance your health. For example, make improvements in the quality of the air you breathe. Review outdoor air quality forecasts where you live and get an indoor air purifier.
