[Suareezay]

horrible. an entire day for abs calves and forearms? bis and tris on w/f and m/f repsectively? too much.

stick to 3day a week upper body/lower body splits

 

[bigggdoggg]

how. i need hel. please help me.i dont seem to grow enymore maybe this is why!

 

[AngryMuscles]

whoa....hitting your forearm a day before back/bi?? ouch!! that gotta suck and one day apart for rest before legs from back workout?? follow Gimp's advice
hit calves on legs day/chest day or whichever works for you..

Keep it simple! switch to a 3day push/pull/legs or some variation of that and MORE IMPORTANT . . . EAT!!!

 

[Suareezay]

i dont get the attraction to these bodypart routines. Why train calves separately from legs? Im not saying it isnt effective...just unnecesary. And a a whole day for arms...completely unnecesary.

seriously look into an upper body/lower body, or push/pull/legs split. Take a look at these and decide which is best for you. In the end, the routine doesnt matter. Just make sure its not retarded, you train intensely, you train low volume, you progress in weight, and you eat.

work lifts not bodyparts
work them once a week
push pull routine
build up to squatting 400 for reps, benching 300 for reps, and dead 500 for reps
work your volume and intensity so you add weight every week

start out with

Day 1
Bench- warmup then 3 sets of 5
Lat raise for injury prevention 1 set of 10

Day 2
Abs and calves and neck work

Day 3
Squat
warmup then 3 sets of 5(alternate squats and deadlifts every other week)
1 set STLD of 5
Chinups- 3 sets of 5

i usually do chest/tris sunday, take off monday then back and bis on tuesday then take off wednesday then legs and shoulders thursday then off friday and saturday. i am pretty satisfied with the results, good gains and good rest time...

thats a nice, simple push/pull/legs (+ shoulders) split. Putting shoulders with legs would be a good incentive not to miss a leg workout if youre prone to putting off leg workouts...although id just go ahead and throw in a set or two of shoulders on sunday after chest so theyll have all week to recover...but whatever works.

do you guys think suareezay or gimps is better foe bulk. i lke them both?

If the cats in the gym would just drop the cables, kick away the med ball and do this split, they would actually look like they work out on a weekly basis. Good post

 

[bigggdoggg]

that doesnt seem like much workout.

 

[mister69]

focus on the squats\dead\bench and add in some other higher rep work ...eat a high protein diet and carb up around workouts and keep cardio on your off days.



No need to overanalyze anything ..eat lift sleep

 

[bigggdoggg]

so how would i lay that out on a weekly plan. is doing some of the machines and cables after the main compund movements ok it cant hurt can it?

 

[bigggdoggg]

im going to do jph plan it soubds easy

 

[bigggdoggg]

if i change to this will i start seeing better results?
