Thanks for the feedback so far. I am not trying to get huge but just more developed and cut. Im really working out for superficial reasons, broader shoulders, biggers arms, flatter stomach ect.

When you say half-assed full body, what is missing???

As for my diet, each day looks similar to this:

Meal 1: 2 eggs, turkey on wheat bread

meal 2: some grilled chicken, hardboiled egg, maybe some red beans

meal 3: turkey sandwhich on wheat or grilled chicken salad w/ vinegar dressing

meal 4:some type of lean meat w/ green vegetables

meal 5:yogurt or cottage cheese w/ fruit on off days or a protein drink on workout days

First of all, what does your diet look like? For ganining lean body mass, this is the most important piece.

Just scrap the supplements for now. They are incredibly overrated and unneccessary. At least 95% of your results are going to come from nutrition and your training. Until you perfect these areas for a substantial period of time you are focusing on the wrong things if you look toward supplements.

I realize nobody wants to hear that, so usually when we say that it gets ignored. But, I feel its important enough to mention again.

its looking like a halfassed(no offence, might sound worse than i mean it) full body. what are your goals? building muscle? cutting down(toning)? and importantly how long have you been working out fer?

Hello all, I am new tot he site and was just hoping someone (or several someone's) wouldnt mind giving me some opinions and advice on my work out and supplement routines. I am 22 years old, 6'00" and weight 185lbs. I am pretty skinny but have a beer belly to make up for it. I used to work out at home but havent in about a year, and I finally joined a gym.

First of all supplements. I take:
MRI N02 Daily as instructed
bsn NO-xplode before work outs
bsn Cellmass immediately after work outs
Isopure Protein 30min after workouts

For almost every work out I do 3 sets with decreasing sets and adding weights for example on the chest press:
12 reps at 85 lbs
10 reps at 110lbs
8reps (or failure) at 125lbs

Workout 1:
15 minutes cardio
12-14 assisted dips
12-14 assisted wide pull ups
Sitting chest press
sitting vertical chest press(incline bench)
pec fly
sitting dip machine
cable tricep extention
dumbell shoulder press

Workout 2:
15 minutes cardio
12-14 assisted pull ups
ez bar curl
palm down ez bar curl
hammer curls
leg press
leg extention
calf extention
compund row
lat pulldown

I do 1 of each workout per week and on the other days I do cardio and ab work along with weightless exercises like pull ups, dips ect.
Ive been told that free weight workout are more effective than the machine but I go to the gym alone and very late so I have no spotter.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me.
