(Hardgainer) Workout Critique
Since I'm a hardgainer I try to stick it out to where i can only do about 6 reps and usually go to muscle failure on the 3rd set. Of course i have no spotter so that blows, but here is an example of my week. Of course i switch it up from week to week so my body doesn't adjust.
3 on 1 off
DAY 1:
Chest/TRI
Incline Bench (bar)/4 sets
Reg Bench (bar)/3 sets
Decline Bench (bar)/3 sets
Hammerstrength Flys/3 sets
Skullcrushers/3 sets
rope pull down/3 sets
the last excercise I do is on the cables. I move the thing all the way to the bottom and take off the rope or whatever is on and I just grab then end of the cable and bend my back at like a 90 degree angle with my face, facing the weights and then I just straighten my arm out. Feels like it really focuses on the TRI area.
Day 2:
LEGS
Hack Squat/3 sets
Squats Unsupported/3 sets
Leg Extensions/3 sets
Reverse leg extensions/3 sets
Lunges with weight/3 sets
Calve Raises seated/3 sets
Calve raises Standing/3 sets
The CHAIR- Where you sit against the wall like your on a chair and I do that until I can't feel my legs anymore.
day 3:
BACK/BI's
Pullups/3 or 4 sets
Lat pull down using cables/ 3 sets
Row Cables seated/ 3 sets
Military press/ 3 sets
Curls standing (Bar)/ 3 sets
Curls (DB) seated on incline bench/ 3 sets
Reverse curls with palms facing down/ 3 sets
day 4:
OFF
Day 5:
ABS
This is the day where I woul change it up and maybe do a focus on one muscle group such as just chest or just quads.
So please help me out if you see descrepencies.
