Kory's Journal

[Kory]

Hi Im just starting this online journal because last time I tried to work out I got discouraged and quit. After reading these forums and articles it has become apparent to me that I hav'nt been eating enough food.

Stats 5 9, 145 pounds

Im a begginer so here is my routine for now.

Chest Press 3/15 3 sets of for all excercises
Lat Pulldown 3/15
Shoulder Press 3/15
Leg Press 3/15
Leg Extension 3/15
Leg Curls 3/15
Lower Back 3/15
Ab Crunches 3/15
Then 20-30 mins of cardio.

I know this isn't a body builder workout but after a month ill get a trainer to set me up with a new program.

Have a good month with your workout. When your ready ask the guys here for a routine, there is so many years of experience in one place.

The exercise and workout section will give you some good ideas as well.

Stick with it the first two months are the hardest, then things just become a habit.

Welcome to the board.
