I'm starting a new strength program to put on weight in which I hope it makes me stronger for backpacking and mountain biking. It's a full body work out for shoulders, core (both abs and back), chest, and legs.
4x10 Lat pull-down. Trying decide how to vary it. maybe 2 of the sets would be close grip in front, then final 2 be wide grips behind neck pull down?
3x8, 8, 10 incline dumbbell press. With first two sets being same weight, then a heavier weight for final set.
3x... Haven't decided on how many reps per set for bench press
5x10 leg extension. Both the leg extension and leg curls machine at the gym has a 5 set guide on the machine where it has three places to put the weights on, and each set you vary the weight placement on each three parts and it supposedly work different muscles in your legs.
5x10 leg curls
3x15 leg press.
3x20 back extension (maybe more reps)
Ab workout is similar to back extension both are done on a machine that weighted. I've never seen either machine until today at the gym.
What you guys think? After about a month and half I'm change this work out routine to different exercises.
