For some background, I weigh about 240 pounds, 5'11, maybe 25% BF. I am looking to lose 60 pounds and have already begun a nice calorie deficit (1900 calories, 220g protein a day) and have just created my own strength training routine. Here it is, for anyone who's curious:
Chest/tricep:
Bench 5x5
Decline DB bench 5x5
Cable crossover 5x5
Incline chest press 5x5
Tricep pulldown 5x5
Dip 5x5
Overhead tricep press 4x8
Leg raises 3x15
Crunches 3x15
Planks (2 to failure)
Back/bicep:
Deadlifts 2x10, 3x5, 2x2
Wide grip pulldown 5x5
Rope pulldown 5x5
Bent over t bar rows 5x5
Concentration curls 4x8
Hammer curls 4x8
Ez bar curls 4x8
Good mornings 4x15
Shoulders:
Military press 5x5
Side lateral raise 4x6
Front raise 4x6
Rear fly 4x6
Face pull 4x10
Upright row 4x10
Shrugs 4x6
Leg raises 3x15
Crunches 3x15
Planks (2 sets to failure)
Legs:
Squat 2x10, 3x5, 2x2
Dumbell step ups 4x12 each leg
Leg press 4x10
Curls 4x12
Extensions 4x12
Calf raises 4x12
What do you guys think? Is it a little intense for a calorie deficit? Or does anybody have any general advice/input on the routine I made? Trying to stay strong while cutting has been difficult but none of my weights have decreased in the last month so I'm managing. Thanks!
