is my workout too 'weaksauce'?
Monday: Chest/Abs Tuesday: Biceps Wednesday: Triceps/Abs Thursday: Legs Friday: Shoulders/Back/Abs *I do cardio everyday except Thursday for 20-30 minutes I'm thinking of switching to a pretty vigorous workout plan similar to the one from my high school years. It looks like this: Monday: Push exercises (bench, squat, all presses, anything that includes a pushing motion) Tuesday: Pull exercises (back, lat pulls, triceps, dead lifts, anything w/ pull motion) and it continues to alternate until Friday then continues on Monday.

Depends what your fitness goals are, but (for example) I don't think 20 mins of cardio and then bicep work is really a workout no matter the goal. You should really check out www.crossfit.com . They post a work out of the day, have videos (or youtube the exercise) on what it is if you don't know, FAQ has substitutes if you don't have the equipment. The difference you'll find versus weight training is that the exercises are not specific training. Your whole body will be getting a workout and unless you're taking steroids it's probably a better way to gain muscle mass than weight lifting. Just a note, I could be a bit biased because I'm not a fan of gyms... I just run to a park by me and I can do most of the exercises there. My track coach in high school used to have us lift weights and the workout is nothing compared to what crossfit puts up. They do a rotation of 3 days work 1 day rest as far as I can tell, and you should have a bit of freedom in messing with the exercises if you can't do specific ones. I can't do even 1 muscle up for example, so I substitute dips and pullups. End plug. And no, I'm not affiliated with the program, I just try to do the workouts. If you're curious I'm 6'2 165lbs w/ 5% body fat. I just started crossfit recently so I suspect my weight will go up since my upper body is actually doing something now (I used to just run and do some situps). I still run a lot more than crossfit perscribes though.

FYI.....Sunday (Jun 1st) is the first OFFICIAL start date of my fitness program. I was able to get with a trainer and he put me together a daily workout program. I'll start off 3 days a week doing free weights and cardio with ab work thru out the workout working my way up to 5 days of SOME kind of workout. My biking will be the cardio while in the gym (stationary bike) and my mountain bike will be cardio/fun as time/weather allows on my off days. He also put together a home workout using body weight resistance that I'll use on the days I can't get down to the gym because of work or "kid duty".

Good idea! I got nothing to share really so I'll just read
 For the most part I pick out routines from Men's Health or other such magazines that I like.

Have any of you tried or even looked at the 300 workout? My trainer has pulled a few exercises from that and really kicked my butt! I don't know it those guys in the movie really did the workout but I can see it getting you into great shape if you did it regularly. I have mainly done the core exercises, they take alot of balance and core strength.

I should have added that my trainer modified it a bit for me (being a girl) by changing some of the weight's but he still made me do all the actual excercises. I went home, showered, ate, fed the dogs and went to bed! It was only 8:00 and I was beat. I really liked it though.
