ValentineOhhh okay I see bro. Sorry for the handicap, but you can still do a ton!
What I would do in your situation is try to get a little bit of structure so you’re not just going forever
For example:
3 x 15 dumbbell curls, focusing on your form over the weight you’re pushing
4 x 10 overhead tricep dumbbell extensions (this is what they’re called) focusing on less reps but more weight
The way I like to think about it is this:
chest or workouts where I push the weight away from me, I aim for high weight, and low reps
Back or workouts where I pull the weight towards me, I aim for low weight and high reps
4 x 20 of the crunches. This way you’re building an interval that may lead to cleaner reps under tension (when you do the motion of a workout and hold where the muscle squeezes, this is tension)
Do you go to a gym? I would use the machines because here you can still do like a chest or back workout that incorporates one of your arms and adjust for the weaker one. It would be a good way for you to get more muscles worked and work around your handicap
my apt has a gym, it doesnt have machines tho,
yea ur suggestions are more or less what i do, altho i consolidate the reps into 2 rounds because i assume taking more breaks between reps would reduce the effect of the training
for the triceps i think what i do is different, i just lift the dumbbell vertically while sitting down, not sure if its an official workout
im also tryna figure out how to eat properly, cus i usually dont eat much, but i find when i work out more that im always hungry

Nah, there’s really no big difference, it just depends on your preference. The way I was suggesting would help in getting stronger in the workout quicker, but you can always achieve that through your method as well
For the triceps, it’s the same thing. That’s called seated overhead tricep extensions
Only thing I can suggest for food is to focus on proteins (like chicken) and healthy carbs (like a salad) and to eat this post workout. It’ll help your gains too

I really don’t tbh. My cousin challenged me to it because I’m mostly doing strength training/crossfit challenges and Olympic lifts. So I figured I would try something new for once.
I’m nursing a triple torn ACL on my left knee too so that’s also why I stayed away from running but imma face my fears lol.
