    I've joined the gym but don't go ask much as i should.

    Does anyone have any fittness routine they can tell me about, as i get bored very easy inside the gym. If i had some workout to do I might last a bit longer.

    Any help welcome

    What are your goals?

    If you find the gym boring (I do) then I'd suggest having a look at crossfit. Crossfit Ireland and Crossfit main site.

    edit: Or maybe consider taking up a sport?

    I'm playing soccer at the moment but can't train because i go to college at night so just need to keep up my fitness

    In my experience playing soccer outweights the gym as soccer gives you both mental and physical fitness and it is more sociable. Stick to the soccer it is more entertaining dont forget to do your stretches afterwards and you will be nimble for years :D

    How often can you make it to the gym? How long can you spend there?

    Age / weight / height?

    Diet?

    Goals?

    Lift 3 times per week ABA week1 and BAB week2. Cut the junk, esp on weekends. Eat small meals 5 times a day and always have protein with every meal, whether it's a shake, chicken or tuna. Realise the fact you've bothered your arse to get to the gym so don't play games with your time. It's not what you do when your training that's going to make the difference it's what you do when your not training.

    Workout A:
    Chest Press 5x5
    BB Deadlift 5x5
    BB high Pulls 5x5
    Dips 3x8
    Lat Pulldown 5x5
    One Arm Swings 3x10 each arm
    One Arm Snatches 3x10 each arm
    Bicep Curls 3x10

    Workout B:
    Incline Chest Press 5x5
    Back Squats 3x10
    BB Clean and Press 5x5
    Pull ups 3x8
    DB Rows 3x10 each arm
    DB Squat and Press 3x12
    DB Flys 3x10
    Bicep Curls 3x10

    I finish both workouts with combined sets of Renegade DB Rows, Weighted Lunges, Weighted Step Ups, Box Jumps and Sit Ups.

    Check Youtube for demos of the above.

    Best of luck with your goals.
