Good Routine?

[EnjoiiPANDA]

My routine is this, tell me if it is good for my body and if I am doing everything right. (I'm 13, trying to get alot of muscle, skinny)

Mon- legs, calfs, all lower body(practically)

Tues- run/day off

Wed- chest, shoulders, back

Thurs- run/day off

Fri- triceps, biceps, and abs


Or should I work out every day, alternating?

Such as -

Mon- legs, calfs, all lower body(practically)

Tues- chest, shoulders, back

Wed- triceps, biceps, and abs

Thurs- legs, calfs, all lower body(practically)

Fri- chest, shoulders, back, and triceps, biceps, and abs (mixed)


Keep in mind that I spend 5-10 mins warming up and I run everyday.


Is it good?

Is it good?

Is what good? That is a list of bodyparts.

You won't do better than this at your age:

And before you ask, I am not willing to help further unless you clearly demonstrate that you actually read most of the thread above. I about wore my fingers out on another thread for another newb, so unless you can come up with something that isn't covered, I'm out

I am that other newb, my name is Dave.

I was just asking your advice, because to me a 3x5 program did not seem like it would be enough to build me up and also get me toned and other stuff, I think I may go for the 300 program, which my buddy does something close to already and he is in killer shape;
# 25x pull-up
# 50x deadlift @ 135 lbs.
# 50x push-up
# 50x box jump @ 24" box
# 50x floor wiper @ 135 lbs.
# 50x clean and press @ 36 lbs.
# 25x pull-up
# 300 reps total!

But I will change mine to more weightlifting and less of the jump exercises

The most important qualities of a weight program are reliance on the big lifts and a plan for progression. Look for them in any program. If it's just a list of exercises or bodyparts, it ain't a program and is not going to provide much in the way of results if you just go in, bang away til you're beat, leave and repeat.

Why do you think so many people quit so soon once the join a gym? Because they don't educate themselves and don't get results.

That routine is freaking hilarious. Other than GPP what do you honestly think its going to do? 50 135lb deadlifts...whoop dee doo, clean and press 36lbs??? If your "buddy" is already in killer shape than he doesn't need to build muscle like you "think" your going to do with this program.

I'm not saying this to be rude, I'm saying this to be clear...

In my opinion, you will not find aything better than what I linked above. So that's my reccomendation. If you ask me about anything else, I will still say that the Rippetoe program is best for you right now. Keep in mind that Rippetoe's specialty is training young (high school and younger) athletes. This is what he uses on people your age, and he's been doing it for a long time. So I take his experience seriously and suggest his program to others.

If you want to do something else, that's fine by me. But I can't really offer any other advice to someone new and young; when you're a complete newb you don't need any sort of specialty stuff. You just need to get strong and eat. The Rip program is a nice framework to keep you focued and progressing. If you don't like it because they did something different in '300' and you hate going to the gym because it's boring, then don't do it. You shouldn't do something that you don't believe in or that makes you unhappy.

It is a joke. If you want to do cardio then go do some cardio--you don't need help with that. Lifting weights is for geting big and strong, which the above you mentioned will not do for you. Eating, compound lifts and heavy low reps is what makes a monster. You already have some excellent recommnedations from Guinness and I would suggest you go with them. Don't be another one of those guys that ask advice and when you get good advice you ignore it, which is the feeling I am getting.
