What workouts do you do?

Q. I need more tough workouts to do in the gym because my muscles are getting use to the same workout routines. I usually do squats, benchpress, bicep curls, leg press, and deadlifts. I just need to know what other workouts i can do to get bigger and stronger.


Answer
Workout #1

low-bar back squats 3x5
Bench press 3x5
bent-over barbell rows 3x5


Workout #2

low-bar back squats 3x5
Overhead press 3x5
Deadlift 1x8

and i do pullups (4-8 sets depending on how much weight i'm adding to my body) either after workout #1 or #2, depending on if i feel my arms have recovered. usually do it twice a week while i do these two workouts three times a week.

i make sure that if i complete my sets that i put the weight up on the lift by 5 pounds. that way you don't get "use to the same workout". it's not about doing different workout routines it's all about increasing the resistance/weight/intensity.

A good workout schedule?
