I got back into weight lifting this Spring. At first I was just doing my own program, of 3sets of 8reps and a 4th set of 5reps heavy weight. But I wasn't doing the right routine per most of everyone on this board.
So in May I switched to a PULL, PUSH, and LEG routine working out 3 days a week. I also added Deadlifts, and Squats to the program. I do everything in a 5x5 setup, first two sets are light warm up to perfect form, and loosen up, and the final three sets are much heavier, and I add weight to the bar every week.
It is end of July, and yes I have seen little results, even my friends said I look slightly fuller, but my arms still look the same, they don't have that shirt busting bulge yet, the main thing I have seen improve my chest is bigger, and the shoulders more defined and pumped out, but the biceps to me barely look any different.
When I first started working out I was 165lbs, now I weight between close to 175lbs, I am 5'10
The routine I am doing is correct right, 5x5 program >? I guess I need to have a little patience as Axl says.
Please reply with constructive advice, and if nothing of substance to add then don't even reply, thank's.
