Have not been to the gym regularly in almost a year now (was into it pretty steadily for two years prior). With that said, I am not out of shape, I am 6'1" 175 lbs., eat pretty healthy and run a few miles every few days. Before I stopped this was my routine:
Chest/Tri's
Shoulders/Legs
Back/Bi's
One day on, one off, with cardio and abs mainly on 'off days', nothing on sat./sun.
Exercises looked similar to this, usually in 3 sets of 8-12 reps:
Chest: bench (bb), incline bench (db), flyes (db), dips, decline bench (bb) [mixed every other week]
Tri's: dips, skull crushers, cable push downs
Shoulders: overhead press (bb), side raises (db), overhead press machine, upright row, shrugs
Legs: squat, lunges (db), duck sqauts, calf raise machine, leg curl machine
Back: deadlifts, seated row, back extensions, bentover row, lat pull down
Bi's: preacher curls, reverse grip ez bar curls, bb curls, alt seated db curls
Just when I stopped I was getting ready to start the stronglifts 5x5 program so I have all the info on that.
Also, recently i got everything to do P90x.
Here is my question, my goal is to have a 'model' type body, and before you **** on me for that comment by 'model type' all I mean is lean, slender, tight muscle (i.e. Pitt in Fight Club days) NOT bulky, thick, etc. for example I attached a random pic I came across while shopping today.
My question is this, what would be the best set-up/program for achieving the body style I am after? 5x5 stronglifts, P90, my old regime, something else?
Comments and help would be appreciated.
