Hi everyone,
I just found this site and I think it's great, but I need some help with figuring out a few things about my workout routine. For the past 3-4 months I have been doing a four day plan (chest/tris, back/bis, shoulders/forearms, legs, with 20-30 mins cardio each day as well). Firstly, I want to know if this is a good way to set things up. Secondly, it would be great if someone could recommend three pectoral exercises so that I am working the upper, middle and lower sections of the muscle (would an incline press for upper, peck deck for middle and decline press for lower work?)? I have also been doing crunches (raising chest to ceiling rather than in to knees/legs) and leg raises, as well as a cable exercise for obliques. Basically, I am wondering if my chest workout is good enough, or needs to be modified or improved. Also, on my shoulders day, is doing a military press (middle delts), bent over lateral raises (rear delts) and foreward arm raises (front delts) good, or do I need to change something?
I know I've got a lot here, but if anyone could give me any help that would be great!! I'm just really looking to make sure that I am doing things right and that I'm not missing anything that could lead to problems later on.
