Sometimes I go to 138 but always end up back at 140 (I am 5'7 in height and 18 years old) I was hoping I could share my work-out routine with you and perhaps get some feedback if that is o.k? It has upped in intensity over the past few weeks, but was wondering if i should do something different to get faster results.

You'll notice that there is generally a rest or cardio day between weight training days to allow your muscles to recover which is the best strategy.

Then I will do tricepts followed by shoulders, I end my workout with core exersizes. Sooo.... I'm doing a full body workout everyday, is this better than isolating one muscle each day? If it's not than give me some suggestions... Thanks!
