If your looking to gain mass I would scrap that workout...Unless training each part once a week works best for you...Even with Heavy Poundage that didn't work for me for to longso....

I try to hit everything at least twice a week, abs, forarms, and calves I try to workout everyday...I workout Mon-Sat...And I try to change my routine up every 3-6 weeks

Mon: Chest, back
Tues: Biceps, Triceps
Wed: Legs, Shoulders
then repeat through Sat

SOme people say to train shoulders with the back, I think most training will have to be whatever works for you best...
Email me and I can email you my routine if you would like to see it...

The reason why I do abs, forearms, and calfs every day is cause for me there the ones that are hardest for me to workout, and forearms and calfs are muscles I use every day anyway...Well this works for me anyway...

Keep Pumping

I don't like working more than two days in a row. I prefer two on one off - gives better recovery and much better results for me. When I'm bulking I go one on one off. Less is always more, believe it. It's personal, but read some of Dorian's articles for reasons and results. IronMike

I can honestly say I have never in all of my years seen a work out quite like that. Very unorthodox, but it just might work.

Hey pauly, try this:


MON-legs/lower back
TUE-chest/bi'/abs
wed-off
THURS-back/tri's
FRI-shoulders/abs
SAT-off
SUN-Cycle starts over again with chest/bi's


This a great workout for bein on juice, or even off of it to.
Two on one off, like iron mike said.
go like 10-12 reps on all sets first week
go like 7-9 reps on all sets 2nd week
then go 4-6 reps on all sets 3rd week

THIS IS JUST ENOUGH CHANGE TO KEEP YOU GROWING LIKE A FREAKING WEED.

thanks for the replies, believe it or not the guy who gave me that routine is huge, he is trying to get on with the wwf, and said he has got a good chance, ric flair owns the gym I work out at it and supposedly ric is pulling some strings for him.

Here is a workout I found on the web let me know what you think.

Monday: Chest - Bench Press, find your weight limit that allows you to manage only 12 reps in the first set, remember, barely managing this. From here drop to 10 reps, 8 reps, 6 reps, 3 reps, and the final set do 10 reps. This should burn'em.
From here we move to Dips - Building the chest and triceps. This will be four sets beginning with 10 reps, 8 reps, 6 reps, 10 reps.
Next are the Incline-bench - Begin the first of three sets with 12 reps, 8 reps, and 10 reps to finish.
Now we go to Curls - Four sets, 10, 8, 6, 8.
Next is the Decline-bench - Again, 12 reps, 8 reps, and 10 reps like the incline-bench.
Finally, we finish the workout with Abs - crunches - Two sets of 25.

Tuesday: Legs - squats - Six sets; 12 reps, 10 reps, 8 reps, 6 reps, 4 reps, and finally 10 reps to finish.
Calves - Standing, four sets, 12 reps, 10 reps, 6 reps, and 10 reps.
Leg-extensions - Six sets, 16 reps, 12 reps, 10 reps, 6 reps, 4 reps, and finish with 8-10 reps.
Shoulders - Military press - Four sets, 10 reps, 8 reps, 6 reps, and 8 reps.
Abs - reverse crunches - Two sets of 25.

Wednesday: Back - Rows, six sets, 16 reps, 12 reps, 10 reps, 8 reps, 6 sets, and 10 reps.
Pulldowns - widegrip/front - Seven sets, 16 reps, 10 reps, 8 reps, 6 reps, 4 reps, 4 reps, 10 reps.
Hamstring-curls - Six sets, 16 reps, 12 reps, 10 reps, 6 reps, 4 reps, and 8-10 reps.
Flies - Four sets, 10 reps, 8 reps, 4 reps, 8 reps.
Back extensions - Four sets, 10 reps, 8 reps 6 reps, and 4 reps.
Abs - crunches - Two sets of 25.

Thursday: Dead-lifts - Seven sets, 12 reps, 8 reps, 6 reps, 4 reps, 3 reps, 3 reps, 10 reps.
Bench press - Repeat Monday's.
Biceps-curls - Repeat Monday's.
Incline-bench - Repeat Monday's.
Dips - Repeat Monday's.
Decline-bench - Repeat Monday's.
Leg-extensions - Repeat Tuesday's.
Squats - Repeat Tuesday's.
Calves - sitting - Repeat Tuesday's
Abs - crunches and reverse crunches - Two sets of 25 each.

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday - Get lots and lots of sleep. This is an intense workout and one that should be done on a high protein, strict diet (especially if on the stack) and no less than eight to ten hours of sleep per night. Drink lots of water, a gallon a day wouldn't be too much.

My split is a lot like vdevil's - same approach. Seeing as everyone is being good and posting there's I'll show my hand too...

Mon - chest/calves
Tues - back/tris
Wed - off
Thur - shoulders/bis
Fri - hams/quads
Sat/Sun off

I take two days off after legs cos I'm usually drilled by then. I'm not the fastest recovering person, so maybe you don't need to rest as much as me. If I have time I'll do cardio on my days off, and do abs with cardio or throw it in twice a week, not on consecutive days. Hope this helps! IronMike

Im with E2 Ive never seen a routine quite like that either, but each person responds different to different set ups. No one can actually say what routine is best simply because there are only a few constants in BB and that is you have to eat to grow, you have to lift heavy to grow, and you have to be disciplined and dedicated to grow. The greatest thing about slinging iron is that there are so many options out there that you can keep your body guessing all the time, seeing as how adaption can be your worst enemy. I like alot of guys on this post switch my routine around every 3 weeks. I do all kinds of different routines just to keep it interesting. For example Im in week 5 of a six week mass overload routine, afterwards Ive decided to go with a couple of weeks of high volume, and then on to another six of mass overload. Just have fun, experiment, and grow bro.
Bleed Iron,
Later.

Hey pauly you got that workout from one of the anabolics.com newsletters right? I've never tried it but it looks good. My basic routine is that I train every body part twice a week...on or off the juice.

Mon - chest, tris
Tue - shoulders, bis
Wed - back, legs
Thr - chest
Fri - shoulders, tris
Sat - back, bis
Sun - legs

Sometimes I only do legs once a week and take sun off. I train abs 5 days a week and run 1 mile mon, wed, fri. Keeps me big and ripped and I love it. Ronnie Coleman trains every bodypart twice a week also. Thats why I do it.
