An epic introduction

[nanila]

*waves* Hello! rydra_wong pointed me toward this community, so I've adapted a recent post from my personal journal by way of introducing myself and asking a few questions.

( Background stuff about exercise habits & goals )

Specific gym routine
For an easier workout, I do 30 minutes on the elliptical trainer followed by 30 minutes of weightlifting/resistance machines (alternating arms and legs each workout) and situps/pushups. For a more aerobically intense workout, I do 15 minutes on the elliptical and 15 on the treadmill at a slight gradient at 10-11 km/h pace. Same weightlifting regime. I increase the times at the weekends to 40 mins or 20/20.

Questions!
What are your routines? Are there any exercises that you swear by for a particular muscle group?

I enjoy doing free weight exercises, but I only do stuff for my arms and shoulders. I do bicep curls, shoulder presses, chest presses and wrist curls. What free weight exercises do you do for your abdomen/legs?

Thanks for reading!

Yeah!

I deadlifted half my bodyweight today. In three sets of ten reps.

Just wanted to share :-)
