Hey guys, im here to ask what your opinion is as far as choosing the right program or workout routine while in the gym.
Iv been working out on/off since high school which was in 2010. But until now, I finally put my foot down and want to make a lifestyle change and stick to it consistently because im tired of being small.
Lots of friends of mine who are pretty good size, they’ve been lifting and it seems that they go in the gym, do their own thing. They don’t have a set “program” and im sure most of you guys on here dont either. you just know what you’re doing when you go in… now. Heres my question…
Has anybody heard of the program called “FIERCE 5”? A full body novice program 3x week? Split up between Workout A and Workout B?
Iv been following that the past month or so, and well… idk. I like the concept. But then it sucks because Im use to breaking my days up by lets say, MONDAY- chest, triceps. or the next day Back and biceps.
The FIERCE 5 program its nice because its full body, but i feel like its not “enough”. Not enough of one muscle group?
Iv seen progress every week though. I continue to add 5 lbs on my bench every week and 10 pounds on squats.
When I bench for example, I never go past 5-6 rep range. I always lift until Im struggling on that last set and its never pst number 6. So its not like im putting up light weight and just going through the motions. When I first started the program, after not lifting for a while I was only benching 140 or so and shaking on the 5th-6th rep. Now Iv worked up to 165 x6 for 4 sets. As long as I try and add 5lbs every week.
Now I want to put on massive size. Im currently only 165 lbs and im bulking, shooting for 3500+ calories per day.
Should i keep going at this Fierce 5 program, or should i break my days up and go 5x week instead of 3? and do my own workouts? as long as im lifting heavy? I usually google and read on forums for chest/tricep workouts and combine them with mine and knock them out that day.
Any feedback?
thanks!
