Damn, this has to be one, if not, the most informing thread I have ever read on this site. Thanks for posting it and there are a number of lifts I am going to try out.

I think thats a good one. I know people always telling me that they dont like doing squats because of their knees. I also think that most of the people are doing squats in the Shirley Machine anyway.

routine question:

I'm trying to work on Cardio and Weightlifting and looking to see gains in both.

should a routine be the same week in week out until you stop seein gains or can you switch workouts each week what I'm currently doing is:

week 1:
day 1: Push
d2: cardio
d3: pull
d4: cardo
d5: squat

week 2:
d1: cardio
d2: StrongLifts beginner workout A (designed for a 2 day split)
d3: cardio
d4: StrongLifts B
d5: cardio

is this too much variance?

You can do that, as long as you always try to improve. Also, take short rest breaks between sets.

cool thanks; any other opinions?

Personally I would stick to just one routine on a weekly schedule and stick to it until you complete it or progress stalls. That kind of looks like workout ADD.

So what do you say to a program like Stronglifts that has 2 workouts but varies week to week (doing 3 workouts a week)?

week one: workout A; B A
week two: B, A, B
