I've decided to go with a MWF AM/PM split. To cut down on time in the gym, are any of these exercises expendable, or should I just keep them all? (I am just now starting my SD, so I would not be able to check my maxes for any different exercises that could possibly combine 2 into 1).

Hm, for some reason it is not letting me edit my posts. But I have an additional question. How much more beneficial do you think it is to do a 6x a week workout than 3x a week? Is it worth the extra time it would take, and I wouldn't really need to any cardio with a 6x a week would I? I have...

Here is my 3x a week workout, and I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions for me?  Also, I was thinking about turning it into a 4x a week workout.  Should I try to bump it up to for, and if so, how should I go about doing that (should I just repeat some more weights)? Thanks for your...

How does this look for a bulking diet (I'm in college, so my choices are limited)? I'm 130 pounds, 7% bodyfat, and I am trying to bulk to 140-145. It's hard to tell calorie wise what it comes out to, but I think it might be around where I need to be. I was thinking about staying close to...

I guess I will just continue cutting for the next 3 weeks, unless someone thinks I should do something else.  I'm currently 132 8% bodyfat.  I guess I could try to get down lower so I can have a really nice base to build from for my next bulk.

Well, I wasn't on an HST cycle (I was just doing 3x a week normal workout since coming back from winter break), I guess I could just continue the cutting that I was doing, but that would be for about another month (I have been cutting for the last 6 weeks).

I have just started a 12 day SD, and I will begin my next HST cycle on the 27th.  However, I have a delima.  I have spring break on the 3rd week of my cycle.  I will most likely not be going anywhere, so I can still workout, but my exercises will not transfer over well to my gym at home (I'm in...

I have been on a cutting phase for about 6 weeks now, and I was not able to lose as much weight as I had hoped.  I am now about 132 pounds (5'5'' ) and started at about 138-140 pounds.  I started at 12-13% body fat and I am now at 8%.  I dropped a little, stayed at the same weight for a few...

Does anybody know any good ab exercises that won't hurt your back. Right now, pretty much everything I try to do hurts my back. The only thing that has remotely worked have been weighted ab machines, but my school gym does not have one. Right now I just do bicycles, however, they end up...

Thanks for the replies. With dips, how would I add them if there is no weighted dip machine at my gym? Also, are there any other suggestions for exercises?

So dips in addition to dumbell bench?

I have been doing these exercises for about two cycles now. I do a 3 times a week HST program. Any suggestions on what I should change or other comments? Dumbell Bench Press Machine Row Lat Pulldowns Standing Bicep Curls (with EZ curl bar) Skullcrushers Dumbell Shrugs Machine Shoulder Raises...

Alright, so the consensus is that I should do a short 3 week cycle starting heavy. Sounds good. However, after these 3 weeks, what should I do for my three weeks of winter break? Should I do something like 9 days of SD following the 3 week mini cycle at school and then just do two weeks of...

Thanks, I didn't think that you were actually able to just use the numbers like that. Also, I forgot to mention. On my 3 week break I am going to have the same problem, short cycle or not, because the gym at my school and the one at my house are totally different so I don't think it would be...
