Right-o, just finished my generic plan that my gym set me and have now decided to do my own one. As their's was pretty basic and didn't seem that great.

I'm 176cm tall, and weigh 9 stone. So I'm quite slender.

I'm aiming to tone up and put on a bit of weight at the same time. As well as some light cardio work. I'm generally quite fit anyway so I'm not focussing too much on cardio.

I've searched on the Net for a programme but there are literally thousands out there, and I've no idea which are good and which are conflicting.

I go to the gym every other day pretty much. And normally go in the evenings, before dinner, if thats of any use.

So gym bods of CS, fire away....

Over 3 days yes, rest day in between.

10 reps x 3 sets

For biceps I use 18 or 20 kg dumb bells depending how I'm feeling!

Bench press I use 34 and 36kg dumb bells

Incline I lower to 24kg, a lot harder.

Pectoral press 105kg

For the MTS row 40kg for the bicep machine 65kg

Dumb bells for shoulders 30kg

Pulldown 68kg

Cable 3.5kg I think each arm - Will check

Dumb bells for triceps is 14kg - place behind head and lift up

Leg press is on 85-95kg

Leg curl is 50kg ish I think

Theres 2 other leg machines I sometimes use too, one you press in other you pull out. Both around 90kg

Running - 2k/m at level 11 - 10 minutes then 3 minutes cool down

Cycling - 2k/m at level 10 - 10 minutes then 3 minutes cool down

9 stone? You shouldnt be doing ANY isolation exercises.

Your workout plan should look like this

Monday, Chest and shoulders:
Barbell benchpress - 5x5
Standing military press - 5x5
Dips - 4x As many as possible.

Wednesday - Back:
Neutral grip pulldown/chins - 5x5
Deadlifts - 5x5
Bent over barbell row - 5x5


Friday, Legs:
Back Squats - 5x5
good mornings - 4x10
glute ham raises - 4x10

At the end of every workout do 3sets of ab rollouts.

Diet wise, eat evrything in sight, 300g of protein, 400g of carbs and 70g of fat should see you put some size on.
