I want to work out 4 days a week. What muscle groups should be worked out and on what days. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. ** Will Whey protein really make a difference if I am new to body building?

YOU COULD TRY THIS MONDAY-CHEST, BICEPS AND FORARMS TUESDAY-BACK AND TRICEPS WEDNESDAY-REST THURSDAY-LEGS FRIDAY-SHOULDERS SATURDAY AND SUNDAY-REST WHEY PROTEINIS GREAT. TRY TO GET 1 1/2-2 GRAMS OF PROTEIN PER POUND OF BODY WEIGHT, GET IT FROM FOODS LIKE CHICKEN, LEAN RED MEATS, TUNA, FISH, TURKEY, PEANUT BUTTER ECT.... IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS YOU CAN E-MAIL ME ANYTIME. BEST OF LUCK M18 ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

The above both look good, however if your in a cutting down stage try the following: Mon: chest and legs I've found that hitting larger muscles groups on the same day really cuts into fat reduction. Add cardio on 2 of those off days if possible. Preferably in the morning before eatting. As for protein, whey is excellant, but keep the meats lean and plentiful. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

since you are new to lifting your initial gains are going to be from neurological factors rather than muscle hypertrophy. A.K.A. you'll reach a plateau after your initial gains, this is especially when you want to hit your body with extra protien and suppliments. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I workout five days a week. Mon-chest Tues-Back Wed-shoulders thurs-arms fri-legs I isolate one muscle group a day so that i can beteer concentrate on it. I am a beleiver that large muscle groups like back and chest and legs need a whole day to themselves and should not be paired with other smaller muscle groups. -Max ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
