Hey everyone, I've been lurking this thread since the 300 page mark and thought I would finally introduce myself since I need some advice.
I do a home workout with the weights that I have at home because I got no monies for the gym Also, don't know what some of the technical names are of these workouts, so troll is you please.
This is my basic workout:
standing bicep curl: 10 reps @ 30lbs
M-bar (technical name???) curl: 15 reps @ 20lbs/side (plus bar)
squat: 25 reps @ 40lbs (plus bar)
push-ups: 35 reps @ body weight
crunches with legs hanging: 20 reps
shoulder press: 15 reps @ 20lbs/hand
plank variations: total time 1min 40sec
I do the entire cycle as fast as possible, wait a minute or so, then start all over again. I do this three times. I keep increasing the break times as the exercise get more difficult to perform, but I can finish the 3 sets of this cycle in under 40min.
Since I am limited to the amount of weights I can use, can some of you suggest what kind of compound exercises I could incorporate into a homeworkout with limited weights?
My problem is I know I can do one more set, but since I'm racing against the clock to keep the intensity up as high as possible, my head is throbbing once I finish the third set. I checked my pulse after the third set, and it's at 160+bpm. So my question is, do I slow down the pace to do more sets? or keep pushing?
It gets to the point where I think im going to faint and throw up, thats why I just stop at 3 sets. After a 10min rest, I feel like I am able to squeeze out another set or so.
