Hey there,

I'm a little confused. Today I switched to one of Scoobys Plans (he's just too convincing).
E.g. one day-routine is:

PUSH - You will perform all these exercises in this 60 minute beginning workout in the order shown, then repeat the whole thing three more times so that you end up doing four sets of every exercise.

Bodypart    Exercise    Number sets    Number reps    Tempo
abs    crunches    3    8-30    1s up 1s dn
     bicycles    3    8-30    2s up 2s dn
chest    dumbbell press    3    6-12    2s up 2s dn
     dumbbell flys    3    6-12    2s up 2s dn
     pushups    3    6-12    2s up 2s dn
triceps    chair dips    3    6-12    2s up 2s dn
   dumbbell french press    3    6-12    2s up 2s dn

But: I should do the whole Workout and repeat it 4 times? In 60 minutes? I just have to say: that's impossible.
If I'm sum up the time I need to lift, and one minute of rest between the 3 sets of every exercise... that I get: 37min. So it's impossible to do this thing 4 times in 60mins.
What am I missunderstanding?
May you help me?

(you can see this plan here: http://184.168.115.109/~oscar/wp.php?inclinebench=on&agree=on&age=2&fat=2&pushup=2&goal=2&howlong=2&activity=3&nutrition=2&bicycle=on&jumprope=on&gymmembership=on&pullupbar=on&squatcage=on&assortedweights=on&benchpress=on&Build+Custom+Workout+Plan=Build+Custom+Workout+Plan

I think he means do four sets of each.. lol and I wouldn't recommend doing these all the time.  Maybe once every 4-5 weeks.

Hmm.. I think he means one set of each exercise first, maybe with light weights as a warm up, then to the proper workout of 3 sets per exercise. That's just what I think though, don't take my word for it.

Hi!
I just asked me the same question. Can someone give an answer?

Thanks

PS: Sorry for digging out the thread, but I thought it's not worth a  new thread Wink
