Total Beginner at 5'9" and 190 lbs looking for feedback on my current home workout routine!
I (20) am completely new to Reddit and a total beginner to working out.
Current Diet- I am actively controlling my calorie intake & focusing on a high protein diet.
Current Workout Routine (Zero equipment, pure bodyweight):
I train 5 days a week and also try to hit 4000 steps daily.
Upper Body Volume:
Decline pushups: 3 sets of 10 to 12 reps
Normal pushups: 3 sets of 15 reps
Pike pushups: 3 sets of 8 to 10 reps
Lower Body and Core Volume:
Bodyweight squats: 4 sets of 15 to 20 reps
Lunges: 3 sets of 12 reps per leg
Planks: 3 sets of 1 minute hold
I want to know if this routine is good enough to build a solid, attractive physique or if I need to add or change anything. Any advice on adjustments, sets, or extra exercises would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
