Okay, so I quit Dougs 4 day split and started on 5x5 Stronglifts. I was a bit hesitant because I hadn't done lifting before, so I started light. But I'm wrecked. Not in a bad way.. I did it properly, checked my form, checked videos beforehand, did it with an empty bar to start. All of me is tense and tired now. Much better than the isolation workout (also, quicker. Took me 40 minutes to get through Bench press, Squats and Lifts.

You had a taste of the holy grail of beginner training routines.
Yeah, I found I could actually do the squats. Elbow feels a bit uncomfortable doing it, but I could. Didn't hurt. But I'll take it easy just in case. I broke that arm less than a year ago, (it was a break in the joint), but it was a quick recovery.
Hmm you guys have a schedule I just work out whenever theres a commercial on or im waiting for a video to load and it seems to work for me. I mean I try to do different muscles but its never something I plan a day before or anything.

Progressing? yes. Good? no. Could be better? so much.
Do you always do things half the way? Do you always finish half your sandwhiches? do you always take out your dick before you cum?

elliptical for an hour?

I'm a cardio machine, or tool, however you see it.
Is there anything wrong with doing a general upper body work out every other day with rest/cardio in between?
I see a lot of schedules here with days just devoted to targeting one muscle group at a time and it's making me wonder if I'm doing something wrong.
All I'm doing right now is MMA Mon-Fri, but I plan on adding the stronglifts program to the regimen when I am allowed to use the school's gym again in the fall.
Depends on how "general" upperbody workout is. 'every other day' with a full body workout will only get you so far..
Why only upper body though?
I do some lower body with cardio.
cardio won't do shit
squats will

Uhh with regards to gaining weight? Because that's not my goal when I do cardio.
And I do do squats.

And do some deadlifts after more squats.
You should do squats while you squat, dawg.
