Sat and sun rest days

I do 4sets of 8 reps and depending on how hard i worked my legs i might skipp cardio on wednesdays

i trying to cut 12 kgs off and build muscle

I do my workout first then 40 min Cardio which is 20 min on treadmill which I stick to hitting 170 heart rate and the allow it to drop to 140 heart rate and the bringing it back up to 170 by walking and running , that's followed by 20 min on a bike and keeping my heart rate to 150 to 160

I take Hydroxycut on my days on and 4 protein shakes ( 1) 30min before, 1 right after my workout , 1 between lunch and dinner , then 1 before bed time ) now I've been told that 40 min Cardio is to much
 
Yes, that is too much. It's not an issue of "overtraining", simply that you can put a lot of effort into a few exercises, or a small effort into many exercises. Big effort gives big results, small effort small results. You're spreading yourself thin. See the thread, Beginners, look here! for better routines and approaches.

You don't need protein powder, you need food.

Bin the hydroxycut, it is a dangerous poison which will do you harm.
 
You do more bicep work then back work. That program is full of problems. You are aware your back is bigger than your biceps right?

Can you explain what benefits you have concluded from doing this program?

Get off the treadmill and get into squatting, deadlifting, barbell complexes and sprints to lose the weight.

Too many shakes. Can you post your diet?
 
That is one of the worst "programs" I have ever seen. Two bicep days?! Where do you even find something like this.

As said, lose the biceptorama program and pick up a full body 3x week tried and tested muscle building template like Starting Strength or Marko or Fadi's beginner program. Lift heavy, grow big.
 
Ok what about this workout i found this on body building .com . AS for writting my own i think ill give myself more time before writting one again but i was thinking of doing 4set of 8 reps instead or should i stick to the reps and sets on this :)

Hmmmm, you press the rope attachment overhead, am I interpreting this correctly? Why didn't I ever think of that?

You get zero tension from lifting from the high pulley rather than pulling down, so you'd need one heavy-ass rope attachment. You've also got a severely compromised ROM.

Apart from that I can't fault it.
 
dude I shit you not it wasn't noobs I just drilled him about it. theyre probably from the same provider.
