Thanks Grimm. Do you switch light & heavy within each workout or do you wait until the next time you workout those groups? Basically, do you have a heavy day and then a light day.

I've been a "athlete" my whole life up until college around '05. 2-3 sports a year since I was 5.Originally Posted by TheAfricanDream
I'm sure this question's been answered already, but any advice on how a person who hasn't been in the gym, or done any physical activity for about a year, should ease back in the routine would be really appreciated. I tried getting on the treadmill and doing some pushups today and felt lik crap.
chest back for example....Originally Posted by EveryDayKicks
Yo Tim! I cant read that routine at all

Look up the front lever. It's a gymnastics move that requires a ton of core strength. There's a progression for it in one of Coach Sommer's articles. If you do those, you'll definitely feel it in your abs.Originally Posted by I3
I just did some HIIT.. the next day my midsection feels like its been worked out..
For some reason I feel I get more of an ab workout with HIIT than actual ab work.
Im beginning to neglect ab workouts, I usually hit them hard with sqauts/deads/standing military press. I do however do the occasional hanging leg raises/weighted leg raise/weighted decline situps.
Anyone got a good ab workout? Or is it really just diet + cardio?

What HITT exercises did you do for abs? I really need to get on something for the abs. Im watching my diet now and doing p90x ab ripper x on top of my workouts 3 times a week but its not giving me the results i want.

I've been doing 6x25situps, every day for 2months, i am seeing results; my midsection is starting to form, but i still have fat around my bellybutton. I do 45minutes of cardio,so i am sure it's not the cardio that's setting me back.
I feel i need something that pushes me more, any workout will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Also, planks are good too. I really slack on the ab work though. A couple sets of hanging leg raises once in a while and a few planks and I'm done. I'm trying to get the front lever though, so it's enough I guess.
Do you mind re-posting it? Thanks.Originally Posted by NjCollector

You literally have no protein in your diet. I mean, there's some naturally occuring protein within the foods you're eating, but you're on basically an all-carb diet, with that salad you're having at lunch fiving you some fiber, unless it's just like an iceberg lettuce salad. It's good that you're trying to eat small meals and not eat sweets, fast food, etc... but you NEED to have some type of protein with each meal, and dead the Ramen noodle soup. The sodium in that could kill a horse. Better adjustment to your meal plan below:Originally Posted by NjCollector
I'm practically getting no big meals in;
i have a bowl of oatmeal+2% milk,with a side of 2wholewheat slices with humus, orange juice- morning
Bowl of salad(the pathmark already-made-salad, just need to add dressing) with a little of balsamic and caesar dressing and 2 glasses of water-afternoon
Ramen noodle soup, 2 pears,2 oranges
The only problem i see i might be having in diet is saturday and sunday i sometimes overdo it drinking/eating out; i don't really control myself saturday/sunday , but i do get my workouts in.
