Fullbody workout??? (after losing 65 pounds)

[Sandie511]

Hello,
I’m new to this forum and have been reading a lot about training, but mostly strength training…I’m 49 years old (female) and in the last year lost 65 pounds from a low calorie diet and walking 2 to 3 miles 5 days per week…before 6 months ago I did absolutely no exercise at all…now I have included weight/strength training into my routine (after reading so much about, it I wish I had started when I began my diet), but I guess better late then never…anyway, I joined a gym about a month ago and am having difficulty putting together a plan…currently I am doing full body workouts 3 days per week and I dropped cardio to 2 days per week…below is what I have been doing for the past 2 weeks and would appreciate and welcome any advice given…please forgive me as I am not sure what all the machines are called, I look at the diagram of which muscles are being used…I simply am writing what is states on the equipment…Thanks in advance for any help…

Pull downs (with the ropes starting at my chest) 20lbs - 3reps 10 x’s
Pull downs (reaching bar from above) 32.5lbs 3 reps 10 x’s
Pulley row (pulling weights to my chest) 25lbs 3 x 15


The below are all machines - Hammer Strength
Pull downs 40lbs - 3x15
MTS Row 20lbs – 1 x 15, 1x15, 1x10 (couldn’t do the last 5)
Chest press 25lbs – 3 x 15
Incline press 10lbs – 3x15
Leg extension 20lbs 3x9
Seated leg curl 65lbs 3x10
Seated leg press 50lbs – with feet shoulder apart – 3x15
Seated leg press 50lbs – with feet almost touching – 3x10
Hip abduction (outer) 90lbs 3x15
Abdominal crunch 10lbs – 3x10 (I’ve a weak core, huh?)

I am 5’7’ and currently weigh 152 pounds…I would like to lose another 10 pounds but everyone tells me I am too skinny…I’m NOT…I’m what I think is called ‘skinny fat’, hence this weight training I started..

seems like trying to do too much each session...i'd focus more on compound movements
w/high reps
ex.
day 1-sq with back/bicep work
2. bench day with military press w/tricep work
3. dl with back and hammy work
couple cardio days...i think this would pack the lbs on and be easier to recover from

I agree with Bino on increasing the compound movements and switch up exercises each day.
If you're weight training 3x a week. Here's a routine I've used with some success.
Mixing up the compound exercises and reps should give your metabolism a good boost.

workout 1 - 5 sets x 6 reps
Full squats
Flat bench
Deadlifts
Standing Military Dumbell Press
Pullups\Lat Pulldowns

workout #2- 2 sets 15 reps
Romanian deadlifts
Lunges
dumbell press
seated cable rows
incline hammer curls
lying triceps extensions

workout #3 3 sets x 10 reps
incline dumbell press
barbell rows
db split squats
reverse lunges
standing military press
lat pulldowns

congratulations and continued success
