(and anybody else knowledgeable on the subject).
Within the last two weeks, I have added in some weightlifting to my exercise regimen. Unlike the running thing (which I'm addicted to now, btw), the root is not for fitness or calorie burning so much as it is for vanity. I would eventually like to work myself to look like one of these gentlemen:
Or at least get closer than I am now.
I understand this will take time and effort.
Do you have any advice as to my approach to weightlifting? I have only what I gleaned during my time in HS lifting for football. I gather that lower weight but higher reps is the way to go - is that true? I also understand that you have to have single-digit body fat percentage to get to that state washboardiness - again, am I just hearing things?
Right now I am lifting three times a week focusing exclusively on upper body (my legs are sore enough from running). My regimen includes less free weights than I would like, mostly because I am usually working out solo. I am including a significant amount of sit-ups/crunches as well.
Thoughts?
