Hi Kathy!
Sure I am going to try to the best of my ability to create some different exercises but I also would like to explain a couple of things please
.
1) There are certain exercises that are great base exercises to warm up the body part for the rest of the workout and should not be left out. For instance for chest you have a bench press, legs you have squats and lunges, biceps you have a traditional curl. To eliminate these for the sake of doing something different would jeopardize the effectiveness of the workout(which we can't allow to happen).
2) It is not only the newness of an exercise that stimulates growth and progress but also the sequence in which the exercises are performed, the variation of the rep speed, the variation of the rep style, the variation of foot or hand placement, and finally the variation of equipment.

I have question about this response
Hi Cathe,
Is it also true that varying weight poundage will bring on results? In other words, some days do heavier weights and then on others do lighter weights for the same exercises?
Also, today I am feeling guilty because I only did weight training for 40 minutes (I've been so busy. But I have had several 70 workout this week. Am I bad?
