Now that we have covered the large muscle groups lets start on the core muscle groups an then the small muscle groups. Lets start with the abdominal muscles. The first exercise would be regular crunches. Start with the knees bent laying on the floor on your back. Contract the abdominal muscles so the shoulder blades come off the bound and hold for a second and then release and repeat until fatigue sets in. Another basic exercise is the situp but remember it will include the hip flexors. Stay tuned for more on the core very soon.

The best exercises for the back when done correctly are the deadlift, pullups and rows either barbell or dumbell. The dumbells will allow a greater range of motion than a barbell. As for the deadlift it develops the whole back and works the hams and glutes as well. If you cant do pullups then you can do pulldowns to the chest to get the same effect. Lastly there are different hand positions doing the rows to stress different muscle groups in the back. Stay Tuned for more later.

As for working the chest there are a couple of exercises that reign supreme. The Regular flat bench is stiil one of the best if not the best for overall chest developement. Using a barbell or dumbell will give you great results. If no weights are around nothing like god lold fashion push-ups or dips. Stay tuned for the next segment very soon.

Continuing on the topic of large muscle groups over small muscle groups I will give you a few examples. If you want to workout the lower body the hips and the thighs for example doing squats will be a great exercise to do when done properly vs leg extension. Remember Compound exercises get greater results faster than isolation exercises. Another example for the back is a few sets of old fashion pull ups. Again compound exercise. Stay tuned for more very soon.

When you go to the gym you have to ask yourself how much time you have and base what you do on the time you have allowed yourself. When it comes to weights don't make the mistake so many guys espically make and do the small muscle groups first. Concentrate on the large ones first and if you have time then go to the smaller ones. You get more bang for your buck doing the large groups first when you have limited time.

Don't ever go into the gym and try to do everything at once it will only lead to extreme muscle soreness. You will only get demorilized and quit. Start off slow and gradually build a little each time and and you will be more motivated to continue with the program. Slow and steady wins the race.
