I need a new type of workout. I've typically done a "bodybuilding" split type workout.

Day 1: Chest
Day 2: Back
Day 3: Shoulders
Day 4: Arms
Day 5: Legs

Usually do some type of cardio intervals on the "off" days.

I am growing increasingly bored with this and need something to shake it up. I'm actually considering crossfit which I've usually been against.

I really need something that I can do at your typical gym without too much trouble.

What ya got OT gods?

I felt the same way and joined. Loved it. Most of my friends and I who do it don't do the bullshite just the more "bro" workouts that are strength oriented.


If you go to a gym go to a place with quality instruction and people you'd want to work out with. Makes a huge differentce

warmup to 2 rep max with either barbell snatch or clean
then hit a compound lift then work in a couple isolation exercises at the endd of your workout. monday wednesday friday.

working on the technique for olympic lifts should keep you entertained for a while.

cross fit can introduce you to the exercises if you are unfamiliar. youtube videos can help expedite the learning process. dimitry klokov is a sensei. strength camp and overtimeathletes are very good channels

Crossfit or have you considered martial arts? Krav Maga, kickboxing etc. Something more interesting than pushing a piece of metal up and down.

Take a month off and do Pilates. You probably can't wipe your butt judging from your avi.

The added flexibility will help with lifts, elongate muscles, and allow you to wipe your butt.

Keep the same routine and follow Max-OT principles.

10-12 working sets each body part day where you are failing in the 4-6 rep range.

How about you just dedicate a day to just running. When i run, that's something I do atleast. Do some distance, work in some sprints, maybe a heal or two. Possibly just improvise, whatever you enjoy doing.

Arnold's Blueprint

I just finished it, and it will kick your arse.


although it is all bodybuilding type lifts, it does keep you on a regiment and times you to keep you into it. He changes up set structure and rep volume pretty regularly to throw your off.

I'm still trying to decide if I want rinse wash and and repeat. I've been doing the last week going on 3 times now....
