Smile Exercise Descriptions

Doug,

I am not new to working out, but some of the exercises in this program are unfamiliar to me, at least the name is. Specifically a one-handed reverse push-up? I would like to start this program, but want to make sure I know how to do all the exercises first, where can I find the "How-To"? Thanks!

are you sure you read it right? or maybe i read it wrong but as far as i know there is no such one-handed reverse push up on the workout... maybe read it over.

i think you may have meant the one-arm reverse pushDOWN
and this is the link

Default Doug your suggestion needed.....

Hi Doug, I always go for your workouts because they give great results. I have suggested your workout given in this thread to my girl, She is totally a begginer, lean and has 5ft 1inch height. She wants to make a good figure, Should I tell her to start this workout or should any alterations to be made????

Pls do let me know abt the same.....

Looking forward for your answer.......

Default Is it okay to do cardio on the days in between strength training?

I LOVE Doug's workout. However, I do have a couple of questions.
1. I am EXTREMELY sore. I have completed week one, and am heading into week 2. should I cut back on intensity/reps/etc...? Stay the same? Can I injure my muscles being this sore?

2. Is it okay to do the cardio on the days in between my strength training, rather than on the same day? I have been reading a lot regarding when the ideal time is for cardio. If it is best to do it immediately after than I would rather, but I am enjoying the routine of waking up early and heading to the gym every single day.

Thanks so much for a great workout plan that I really enjoy!

First off Welcome to the forum

Are you new to working out? If so that may explain the extream sorness or maybe overdoing it if new to working out. It may take some time for your body to get used to the exercises.

I believe that doing cardio right after lifting is good as you have depleated Glycogen (? spelling) and you are more likely to burn off fat and cardio in the am before a meal is also good as it jump starts your metabo for the day but if you want you can do cardio on your off days a lot of people do it.


Best I can do

Default too funny

This is the workout I've been following for about 8 weeks now! It's great, hard at first, but now it's to easy!
