Im sure im doing them right, my father is a physical therapist. I do them in a set of 30, my first set then up them in each set i do after that. I do my crunches normally in between going from the bench to the curling or dumb bells to give the arms a break. But yes i do 300 or more every other day, which is my work out schedule now. Every week i up my weight on the bar 10-15lbs and im about to up the dumb bells another 5lbs, i changed them when i feel right because i have past elbow problems.

Troll is just governing. I do "go to the gym", my basement has a bench capable of doing butterfly's and leg curling also and along with that i have multiple dumb bells and a treadmill with an ajustable incline. If theres anything else you think i should be doing im open to taking advice. The only thing im against doing is building (which is not my goal) my legs. There big enough muscle wise and ive done enough leg presses in the past for a life time, but who knows i may change my mind again.

Just to let you know building big isnt my goal here loosing the weight and toning is. Its a normal thing i do every winter just this time im taking it more seriously.
