Ok, let me get this straight.
You can barely bench 225 yet, but you have separate days for chest, shoulders, arms? What's the point. Arms day? What do you do, 5 billion curls and extensions? Complete overkill.
This is purely my own opinion. I'd cut down your weight training to three days a week, concentrating on squats, deads, press. That's really all you need for a long time. Well, throw some dips and pullups in there too. And stay away from the machines, free weights only. And then throw in 2 days of conditioning in there when you do some cardio, plyometrics, maybe some heavy bag work, cycling or something, to keep up your overall conditioning.
Done.
Thanks for you reply. I see your point. I just got use to the routine. Would you post your routine?
What do you mean by concentrate? More than once a week? I do squats, press, and deads on my leg day. My squats are about 320 with the smith machine (no rack at our gym, they took it out for insurance purposes), 600 lbs on the leg press, 80 lb free weight on straight leg deadlift. Basically, I've been steadily improving in that area.
With the cardio, at what intensity and how long?
Will this stay in line with my goad of reduce my waist size a couple inches and maintain my weight?
