    Hi Guy's, long time lurker first time poster in this forum.

    I 'm looking for some advice on a good home workout. I have worked out at home in the past, but nothing properly structured. I work awkward hours and don't think I would get the value from a gym membership, plus I have some equipment at home. I would be looking at approx twice weekly sessions of about 1.5 hours at a time.

    I haven't worked out in about 5 months due to a shoulder injury, which I think I sustained due to improper warm up's in the past, or lack of warm up to be honest.

    So to me, I am mid 30's, 6 foot 3 and weigh about 13.5 stone. I don't smoke, and would drink maybe 1 or 2 bottles of beer a week, normally a Thursday night after work. Breakfast would normally consist of yoghurt and fruit or a smoothie, but Sunday mornings I pig out and lash on the sausages and eggs washed down with orange juice.

    Lunch would consist or soup and bread rolls while in work, out of work would normally have some chicken and bread or the like. Dinner generally stew, potatoes and meat, or rice, pasta during the course of the week. I will admit I have a sweet tooth, like my chocolate and the like, but I'm trying to cut that out of my diet.

    I am not a fan of vegetables, but eat lots of fruit to try to make up for it. My equipment at home consists of sit up bench, pull up bar, standard home weights bench with lat pull down bar, and about 100kg of cast iron weight with barbell and dumb bells. Also push up stands which I used to use a lot before my injury.

    So that's all I can think of at the minute. If there are any questions just let me know.

    Thanks in advance.

    We should defend our way of life to an extent that any attempt on it is crushed, so that any adversary will never make such an attempt in the future.
