My Routine
Have tried more routines than I can remember since starting years ago done more splits than a gymnast. Liked the look of Cashmans routine and began using it after a few minor adjustments as I have found I do better on a descending rep range and ascending the weight.Took years to find this out trial and error anyway heres my present routine
SAT CHEST/TRI'S
Bench press 4 x 12,10,8,6
Pullovers 4 x 12,10,8,6 (last set to fail)
flys 4 x 12,10,8,6 (last set to fail)
Skullcrushers 3 x 12,10,8
Pushdowns 3 x 12,10,8 (last set to fail)
SUN BACK/BI'S/ABS
Bent over rows/single arm dumbell rows every other wk 4 x 12,10,8,6
Cable rows 4 x 12,10,8,6 (last set to fail)
Wide grip pulldowns 4 x 12,10,8,6 (last set to fail)
Straight bar curls 3 x 12,10,8
Preacher curls 3 x 12,10,8 (last set to fail)
Machine crunches 4 x 14,12,10,8
Leg raises 4 x 16
TUES LEGS/SHOULDERS
Leg extensions 4 x 12,10,8,6
Leg curls 4 x 12,10,8,6
Seated dumbell press 4 x 12,10,8,6
Upright row 4 x 12,10,8,6 (last to fail)
flys/Bent over flys every other week 3 x 12,10,8 (last to fail)
Shrugs 4 x 14,12,10,8
I know my leg routine is bollox but taking it easy at the moment as left knee is not much good due to a car crash just trying to build up strength so when I get my power cage I can start squatting
I need to start keeping a list of weights used as well at the momement just whack on enough for first set and add to it for the rest 
And where is the bloody cardio I have got a cross trainer better start using it
So thats my routine feel free to rip it to bits or advise on what to drop and replace

MON 14 MAY 2007
Was going to make a determined effort to get my @rse into gear and do some cardio but lack of sleep knacked that idea.Not feeling to good today and not eating to well doc has increased my medication so probably getting a few sides at the momement.It's got me feeling like sh1t.
Have had to put training back a day as going into work and won't be finishing till late 
This is more like a diary than a training log roll on wednesday !!!!!!!

WEDNESDAY 16th MAY 2007
Legs and shoulders today changed my grip for upright rows was using a wide grip but felt my wrists were suffering so changed to closer grip felt my traps getting hit much better.
Also extended pause at the top to 2-3secs workout was much harder using this but felt better.
Not going to keep log of my weights as perfect form is more important to me than how heavy can I go so the weight used is not a issue fully working the muscle is and must admit is giving better results.
Each to their own

Your like me mate, get bored and then go back and fill it in again.
Mine also resembles a diary more than a training journal, no harm, I like to vent sometimes!

Do you keep a record for yourself so you know what weight to pick up each time you go in? And to track progress? I have done this since Christmas and found it very helpful.

1MANRIOT I don't keep a record as such but top idea of keeping a list of my start weight you see I am not one for keeping logs on weights but if I stick my start weight down that would be ideal for me
Cheers mate never thought of that

TREBOR thanks for that mate
When I hit 17 stone I felt like my body could'nt cope with the weight especially my legs was'nt walking more like stomping about
I think the main problem was the weight seemed to come on to fast due to the medication I was taking and my body did'nt have time to properly adjust and also the severe lack of cardio meant I was in no condition to carry it.
Starting to put weight on now averaging 2-3lb per week but will run my cardio this time older and wiser LOL
With regard to Pullovers I rate these very highly indeed always used them found my chest has come on great with these seems to hit the full surface of it.They also hit lats and ribcage great for giving you that V taper

Yeah I don't get too anal over the weights week by week, but it helps to look back to the week before so I can put the same weight on, or if it was done with all sets clean, up the weight. Also useful to look back every few months and see the progression.
Nice tat dude, what colour is the rest of it going to come out?
