    3-on, 1-off seems to be most popular. I like to do 5-on, 2-off just because it suits my time better. I don't think it makes such a huge difference. I try to work out each body part 1-2 times a week.

    hey what about those of us that are the non-body bulding types... I know that there are significant differences in how an Athlete trains for his sport than a body builder (I do think body builders are athletes I just couldnt find a way to make a distinction between the two....) While on
    AS is it cool to do the same powerlifting shit back to back days since it hits all the major muscles at once???? Any input would be great.... I would ask my powerlifting coach but telling him Im on shit is not an option.... thanks

    My Split looks like this

    Day 1 - Back and Tri's
    Day 2 - Shoulders, Forearms, lower back
    Day 3 - Abs (upper and lower)
    Day 4 - Off
    Day 5 - Chest and Bi's
    Day 6 - Legs and Abs (obliques, too)
    Day 7 - Off

    I think this split gives you enough space to rest for each bodypart, been on it for about a year and love it !

    Sometimes I will go a sixth day and do cardio, & stretch

    Cardio about 3 times a week usually on the lighter days like abs
    I try to get some hip flexor stuff in there too.

    I do a 5 days on 2 off for about 6-8 weeks and then start a 3 day split one day off then repeat that for 6-8 weeks....then back to the 5 days on and so on....i like it cause the workouts don't get so boring after a while and it shocks the hell out of my muscle. In fact almost every time i switch i gain some strength or mass.

    Lets see for me:

    Day 1: Chest
    Day 2: Bicepts/tricepts
    Day 3: Legs
    Day 4: Shoulders
    Day 5: Back

    But i usually miss a day or tow in the week and end up workingout on the weekends.
    weekendws are usuallly devoted to my couch. lol i also wanted to ask why some of you guys work like chest and cavs or omehting on one day.? Yah know like is there a certain reason? liek i thgout you would work chest and tri's then back and bi's. Yah know cause htey work the same muscle groups. Or is that just the way you plan your work outs to get the maximum effort from each muscle??

    thanks
