1. Age - 18

2. Height - 6' 1"

3. Weight - 140 lbs

4. Body fat - 11% from online calculations

5. Goal - Muscle Gain

6. Exercising for 1 month

7. Daily Calories - Around 4000-4500

8. Macro intake - 230 g protein, 180g carbs, 130 g fat

9. No injuries or restrictions

So as stated, I am one month into working out and I have seen gains in weight but not much of a difference in weight I can lift. My current workout is Hugh Jackman's, which is found here. In addition to it, I do 45 minutes of cardio every day, usually the elliptical. I just want to know if this is a good workout for someone of my condition to be doing. Also, I've noticed it doesn't hit obliques like Scott's workouts and want to know if I should add any other exercises to it. I'll be happy to give any other information needed.

Thanks!

Hey @mandler119. Looks like you are eating like the Wolverine with all those calories! Nice! haha. I would probably change to doing cardio 3-4 times a week.. not everyday. Not for 45 minutes anyway. Why not do a mix of HIIT and LISS? Maybe 2 days of each? Or 3 days of HIIT and one day of LISS?

 

If you aren't content with that program you could always try the Push/Pull/Legs split? Perfect for a beginner, and the pyramid style training for the compounds should help you see an increase in strength really quickly. Let me know what you think. http://muscularstrength.com/Push-Pull-Legs
