would there be anything wrong with lifting twice?

[nooob]

ok i just got done with my 7am lift.

i run at 2:30 and then the track team goes in the gym at 430 to lift.

i sometimes skip the 7am and just lift at 4:30pm with the team.

would there be anything wrong with doing both though? like if i went and lifted at 4:30 again and did the same exact routine or maybe tomorrows routine would there be anything wrong with it?

i didnt do anything overwhelming this morning. so i dont think id be over trainning but what do you guys think?

thanks.

I think if you have no preset goals outlined you can do whatever the hell you want.

Won't get you far though.

It really depends on what you do while at the gym. When I ran track, most of our gym time was circuit training for additional conditioning. That on top of a regular split probably would burn you out fairly quick. If you are going to be able to determine how/what you lift when you are there, then you should be able to get away with doing a standard two a day split. I wish I had the neergy to actually get up early to lift so I could try that myself, but I usually peter out a week or two into the program.

Need more information on your proposed lifting to really give you a complete answer.

k well off the top of my head this is what i did this morning.

abs

powerclean 5 x 3
60%
70%
80%
83%
85%

bench same as above 5 sets of 3 at the same percentages of max

RDL
3x10 30 pound DBs

Contractions (i believe thats what they are called)
3x10 45pound DBs

Dips
1x30

DB 21s
10pound DB

Back Hyperextensions
3x12 holding 25pound plate

DB hammercurl 3x10
1x10 25s
1x10 30s
1x10 35s

and i believe that was it. the only thing i really felt was my biceps cause they are so weak as ive never really trainned them.

but everything else left me feeling like...ok well that was nice..

so yea...i was thinking of going back in after running and doing some more.

but i guess after 2 replies thats not such a good idea.. i lift 3 days a week M W TH and run 5 days a week M W TH F Sat.

my goal is to gain 10-15 pounds then lose maybe 5 or so once my competition season starts.

this morning i was 178 and im 1 week into my cycle of tbol/prov. my caloric intake is ~3500ed but its getting bumped up everyday as im seeming alot hungrier lately.

so yea thats it. would going back in after running be too much?

you create deficits when you train. at 178, you can't really afford to do that...

oop no the bench was 6 for the first 2 then 3 reps the last 3.

this is week 1 in a 5 week lifting schedule and then ill go to invseason lifting which will have me going to maybe 80% of my max at most

add more weight to certain exersices, do more lifts, more reps?

wth do you want? if you're so full of energy, you're definitely not training very hard. unless you're a spaz or something. try doing a 20 rep set of full breathing squats. start your week with that.

 

[nooob]

squats are tomorrow. im saying with what i have for day 1 here, and with the goals i want to accomplish (gain 10-15 at the end of week 5)

what should i do to this day 1 to get more out of it?

say you were the trainer who gave me this workout for day 1.

what reps and weights would you put different for each lift?
