I have been doing trisets now for 2months and they have been great, I have
lost a stone in fat just with my metabolic rate shooting through the roof
and put on piles of muscle and it only take an hour at the gym 2/3 times a
week.

Only thing is I think its time to change my routine a bit, I want to loose
my belly for good now, I know most of this is diet rather than working
out, so I will start to focus more on what gets consumed but I was
wondering if there are any other types of high intensity work outs like
trisets that keep ya ripped?

I was also wondering if any of you know of any good trisets I am not
doing?

At the minute I am only doing biceps, triceps, chest, shoulders and upper
back.

I would like a new routine for upper back because I dont feel its working
at all?

Any advise or information would be great 🙂

Eat 6 small meals a day every couple of hours. Your metabolism will go
ballistic and you'll be [censored] 4 times a day.

Good for you.

I don't know what trisets are, but compound exercises
like squats, deadlifts, pullups and presses do a good job
of working a lot of muscle and stimulating the metabolic
rate.

You are definitely losing out by only working about 30% of the
body's muscle mass.

Pullups or chinups are the best upper back exercise. There
are machines that provide assistance if you can't do them.
Pulldowns are a decent substitute, as are various forms of
rows. See http://www.exrx.net/Lists/ExList/BackWt.html

Imagine the boost in MR if he did some lower body movements that involved
his major muscle mass! Instead of looking for a new routine, how about
finding one that isn't retarded?

I like to do a chest movement, followed immediately with a leg movement,
followed by a upper back movement, followed by a lower back movement.
Repeat that several times with as little rests as you stand. Then I switch
over to a shoulder movement, an ab movement, then a leg movement (typical
hams for me), and another back movement. Repeat several times. Finish off
with isolation for tri's&bi's. I have to do this at night, after 8:30, when
my gym is uncrowded.

You eat too much. I only [censored] once, maybe twice.

I read something like this before... I might try this... What size of meals
are we talking here?

thanks

Thank you for the advise, I will definatly start including pull ups in my
routine for upper back, I might look into adding deadlifts too if i can....

A triset basically is:

for example, chest:
incline dumbells (26kg) x 6
flat dumbell press (30kg) x 6
decline bench press (70kg) x 6

And you do this 3 times without stopping. Obviously the weights are what I
do and you can change them.
