I went from a 3x a week routine doing 2 body parts per day, to a 5x a week routine doing 1 body part for 45-60 minutes. Talk about sore. My chest has never been this sore. I made the change about 3 weeks ago but never thought to post the info.
I changed it up because I noticed I wasn't getting sore like I used to. Three weeks in and I still feel like I did when i first started working out. :lift:
change is always good bro...3x a week...i could see myself there less then 5x...being sore the next day kicks ass...
I have been admiring your avatar for months. Not pushing, but how did this photo come about? :DQuote:

Well as I move on to each new exercise I'm weaker and weaker. However like when I do chest I do 4 sets of each exercise I do. I do as many exercises as I can get in in an hour. I finished off with the butterfly last week and I was so wore out I was doing 70 pounds total. I was beat, but the next day my whole chest was sore. Like I ripped fibers everywhere. Plus my back and arms were too just from the secondary effect I guess.Quote:
