Workout Plan
 

Look for a new workout plan looking to build upper body more vs lower body. Can someone help me out. What exercise do you, do how many reps, for what muscle groups?

Is there a reason why you don't want to work the lower body hard? Too many people at the gym just work the mirror muscles (chest, arms, back) and walk around with chicken legs. Unless you have an injury or other reasons not to train as hard on the lower body as the upper, I wouldn't recommend it.

I do I have a knee injury that keeps me from hitting my lower body like I want to. I have some therapy before I can do it and even then will still be on doctors recomendation

I have found this article from Men's Health that looks good for a arm workout. I have no testimonial for it yet as I have chosen this to be part of my new program starting next monday. Looks pretty good though.

I am also going to be supplimenting this routine with ab excercises. <B>Found Here</B>

I am planning on only doing these arm-ab workouts Monday & Friday. On Wednesdays I will be doing a more full body lifting session to incorporate the other major muscle groups. I usually only do a routine like this for about 6 to 8 weeks and then I will change to a new program that focuses on something else while maintaing what I have built. Tuesday / Thursdays will be 20-30 minutes of cardio.

depends on what your goals are: I just work out for the fun of it - and to stay in shape (plus i love to eat). Here is the best advice I got about 10 years ago. Do 3 sets of each exercise with 6-10 reps, when you can do 3 sets of 10 move the weight up (a little) if you can't do 3 sets of 6 lower your weight. Have a chest, back/shoulder and leg day. Work the abs everyday if that makes you happy. Plus do 30 minutes of cardio (cross trainer will give you a good workout)
