in the recent past i started core strength training...i hit the bench mon-fri
4 sets with goal of hitting 10-10-10-10..worked for me starting seeing gains every other week or so. working out back, shoulder, arms then legs friday after benching each day. will that work for building strength on my cycle or is there the (perfect) workout for me in anyones oppinion

Training chest 5 days a week is overtraining. You need to give as much attention to the rest of your body as you do chest, not throw everything else in on Friday. Split your entire body into 3 days. Legs, chest, and back are worked on different days. You can put shoulders in with chest and arms with back or split them up however you like.

Make a workout routine and post it up in the workout section if you need help.

Yes. Your chest needs time to recover and grow. Is your chest getting sore?

How long have you been doing this? It is usually recomended that you give days off and rest between workouts of the same muscle group. However, I once read an article by Dr. Berardi where he talked about a strenght program he was trying and basically it was the same few excersises every day M-F and the rest on the weekends. It talked about how this was not a good idea for a long term workout, but how in short bursts this could be effective. It sounded kinda good so I gave it a try for 5 weeks. Weeks 1-3 where nothing short of amazing for me! I gained strength like crazy and noticed definite changes. I think it was (Front Squat, Flat Bench, Shoulder Press and seated rows). I am on my phone right now so it is a pain to search and type at length so I will try to find the article when I get home and post a link. Oh yeah, after 3 weeks I noticed fatigue set in and a plataue effect on strength gains.

yeah i notice quick gains but i did plataeu after the second month.....i got a inguinal hernia soon after so i dont know wat could of been. i think ur right tho, its good for short burst but not so good long term
