i am going to try this routine and was wondering what you guys think of it. it supposedly builds a lot of muscle mass and i started it tonight and so far it seems good cuz you can concentrate more on what you're doing. i am lifting heavy. anyway, here it is Mon: biceps; dumbbell curls 5-6sets x 6-8reps tues: Chest; bench press 5 sets x 6-8 reps wed: Back; lat pulldowns 5 sets x 6-8 reps
sat or sun: legs; squats 3-4 sets x 4-7 reps i will also be doing abs about 4-5 times a week as well as cardio 3 times a week. IP: Logged |

It depends. If you can recover from a workout in a day or two, I recommend working each body part twice a week. If you can really make pull off making good gains by training each body part once per week, I think your split could work. I would really cut back on abs. I would only train abs hard once or twice a week. You're also stressing them when doing heavy squats. At least it effects me there. Check out these splits. Split 1 Monday/Thursday- (Upper Body); Tuesday/Friday- (Lower Body); Wednesday/Saturday- (Cardio); Sunday- (Cardio or Rest). Or here's another one. Split 2 (I like this one) Monday- (Chest, Delts, Triceps); Tuesday- (Cardio); Wednesday- (Quads, Hamstrings, Calves, Abs); Thursday- (Cardio); Friday- (Back, Biceps, Forearms); Saturday- (Cardio); Sunday- (Rest). Try your split and see how your body responds to it. If you think you're making good gains on it, stick with it. Good luck. IP: Logged |
