Alright, my split while on gear....think its still to much?

[MohawkMuscle]

That is true...

However- When doing chest movements, do you realise that your tris are involved in every exercise? So you only need if any, one exercise to hit them directly.

Think about it...

the average program

incline press 4 sets
benchpress 4sets
(hopefully that it for chest)

Thats 8 sets of tris...

then most people will do
lying ext 4 sets
pushdowns 4sets

Thats a total of 16 sets for tris and only 8 for chest...

Now we all know why most people have small arms...

too much work.

Work heavy on chest presses and trust me your tris will grow. It is impossible for them not to.!

Same with back... ALL back movements use bic.

So you think doing the back/bi's chest/tri's thing is worthwhile?

I have been doing that for a long time. And I usually just finish with 1-2 sets of bicep or tricep.

Works for me...

I remember when I first started getting huge... 18yrs old 230lbs this guy who is always there asked me howmany sets do I use for chest. I said maybe 3-4. He walked back to his friend and said this guy has fucking good genetics. NO I just train smart!

This one if anything.

Biceps alone is not worth my drive to the gym.

Also Traps alone? Hmm is it worth the drive?

I have to obliterate my traps to make them grow, I mean really fuck them up good to make them get larger. And it takes it all out of me when I do it. I go extremely heavy. Biceps, yeah, I could stick em with something else. Here, how about this one:

Chest/Shoulders
Back
OFF
Traps
Bi's/Tri's
Legs
OFF

Cardio, abs on off days. Whatcha think of that one?

Thats what Id do...

So you'd advocate a day of bi's/tri's over doing tri's on chest and bi's on back day?

 

[spin14]

i do chest/tris and back/bis... it allows me to do less isolated arm work.. plus, i could never curl as much as i can b/o bb row... you know the saying... as mohawk muscle eluded to... big bis come from big back... same for tris with chest... also, you should just give traps and shoulders a shot together... do shrugs and then arnold presses or behind-the-neck presses and tell me how your traps feel... plus, ever do lateral raises with pre-exhausted traps? hurts so good

my split is this:
chest/tri
legs
off
shoulders/traps
off
back/bis
off
