Is UPS open on Monday?

The gym I go to is open Monday-Thursday for 1.5hours. They have machines that work a wide spectrum of muscles, bars for chin-ups, free weights, and cardio-machines. I'm just starting to lift, so what routine would you suggest for a fighter's physique?

  • Answer:

    Lean and mean. Lots of cardio and endurance training. You want to build strong lean muscle, not bulky muscle so work with less weight, more reps. Hit cardio every you go to the gym for a bit and then focus on a different muscle system on different days.

All the gym's I've ever gone to had personal trainers there. If not, just ask the person that's sitting at the counter. This person could be a body builder themselves and most likely will tell you which equipment to use. However if you want them to help you go through the routine they will consider that to be a one on one session and they will charge you personal trainer fees. Whatever your routine will be you should not go beyond an hour to get it all done. There is such a thing as over training, and that's counter productive.

Yea i agree with razor. if your looking to get lean and toned rather than put on bulk lots of endurance exercises (remember lots of carbs and protein).. a little tip is when lifting do around 15/20reps of a LIGHT WEIGHT 4 or 5 sets.. to put on bulk you need less reps, more weight (same sets) also one other point lol.. is that you could be shocked how quickly your body gets used to the workload, especially if u go say 5/7 days.. after a couple off weeks dont wait on it u might need to slightly increase the weight or reps
