Posted August 27, 201312 yr So I've decided to get back into the gym after awhile. I started using the JEFit app on my ipod/Note 2, it's a great app that has tons of submitted workout profiles, you can also make your own, it tracks your progress, suggests where you should be hitting after X weight. It's pretty awesome. Also it syncs your data to their website so whether you use your ipod one day or your android device another day it'll all be up to date.I work out 5 days a week which usually looks like Mon: Chest & TriceptsTue: legs and AbsWed: Back And AbsThu: Biceps and shouldersFri: Run daySat: restSun Rest. So monday: Bench Press 5 sets of 6x125 lbsIncline bench 3 sets 8x95lbsDumbbell Bench 3 sets 8x60Incline dumbbell bench 3 x 8x50Dumbbell Fly 3 sets 8x15Dumbbell Standing Tricep Extensions 3 sets 15x20Tricep Pull Downs 9 sets x 8x70Barbell Tricep Extensions 3 sets 8x120 8x135 4x150Bench Press Close grip 3 sets 8x602 mile Sprint/Runs

August 29, 201312 yr Mind sharing starting weight/goals? Just started working out myself again and im wondering what your workout is geared towards.
August 29, 201312 yr Author Realistically just trying to get bigger and stronger. My goal isn't really to cut weight a bunch just be able to lift more lol. I've been gaining for the past 2-3 weeks atleast 25-55lbs per work out in most cases. I just use JEfit to keep track of my progress each week and try to add 25 or more pounds on what I could do the week before.
August 29, 201312 yr I like the app.... thanks for the mention ... Lets see if it can help me gain or not... been at a plateau for a bit with chest not changing even though workouts have...

August 29, 201312 yr Awesome progress and good luck! I hope you don't mind, but recently I've came across some guys on youtube and they are awesome. I've started this workout they have and I've noticed a LOT of gains I've never been able to achieve. I'm at the end of week 5 as of current and I love it, already have gained a solid 7-10lbs of muscle and have just continually been growing. http://www.buff-dudes.com/guide-to-getting-in-shape/ Edited August 29, 201312 yr by ecromeans
