How to train on gear ??

[Bigkdog]

How should I train while on a cycle ? Right now it looks like this
Monday- back/biceps/abs/ 20 min bicycle
Tuesday- chest/triceps/abs/ 20 min bicycle
Wednesday-legs/calves/abs
Thursday-traps/abs
Friday-chest/triceps/shoulders/abs/20 min bicycle
Saturday-legs/calves
Sunday-30 min bicycle

It's hard for anyone to tell you "how" to life as we don't know how your body responds to certain types of training. However, when on gear you still need rest days and time to grow. You grow when resting and feeding. My initial thought would be to add traps to your back workout, take Wednesday totally off and rest. Do legs Thursday instead. Skip legs on Saturday. Do them hard initially and you're good to go.

Op, Ironbeck made my point. You need to find what works for you. We all respond differently.

I agree with the others worst thing you can do is copy others, but while im here if you want my opinion on the plan what i dont like is the following.

Abs 3 days in a row is abit heavy for me.
I try to seperate my Back / Biceps and Chest / Triceps reason being as you know you work the Bis when doing back etc so i find i cant lift as heavy on my Bis after doing Back. Same for Chest / Tris.
If i was to do a session revolving mainly aroung Traps theres no way id be able to train shoulders the next day they would just be too sore id probably have to cut the weight down by at least 30%.
For Friday again for me it would be training too much on the 1 day by the time i got to my 3rd body part id be knackered. Also if you're doing it in that order chest then triceps then shoulders i feel like your shoulders are going to fall behind the rest of your body.

Like i said at the start though thats just me you might be completely different.

I have done so many routines it's mind boggling. Some were good to me some were not. Some were good but I just didn't like the routine. I found another way.

The point is what they said. However Kel spoke to rest and that is a big key that in the beginning of our aas use we forget. Hey you eat, train, eat and rest. tHe key is you have to have all three. However you do whether on or off you train with the utmost intensity that you can.
But if you get totally worn out, just keep train with just a little less until you feel to hit it with all out. Let you body talk to you.

My point is obvious, you have to get rest and you need to stick as much as possible to failure and intensity. ...crazy mike

Abs abs abs abs abs....why do ppl think their abs are made out of some kind of unique muscle tissue that needs more frequent lighter training? Or do you think doing all that ab work is going to reduce fat in your abs region? no. it wont'. Train your abs like any other muscle group, hit it once a week with a 6-10 reps on a weighted ab machine, go to failure, do some drop sets, static holds, rest pauses whatever you use for going beyond failure etc. Then finish it of with some crunches on the ball. Every other week change it where you pre-exhaust on the ball first, then go to a couple weighted ab machines.
I don't change my training much on steroids anymore, i keep it the same as natural training or only slightly more. The whole point of steroids was because you werent recovering in the first place, so why you gonna double the workload. I dont know what your natty traiing is like tho

I still have no scheduling to my lifting.

I'll go 1 to 3 days, then take a day or 2 off depending on how sore I make myself.

When juiced, I still do the same but a little more. It comes out to like a day off every 3 days.

As far as muscle groups, I do almost like Op's. Chest, tri's - Back, bi's, legs & deads, shoulders & whatever. . . . . Every few weeks I change it up a little, like hit bi's much harder than back, then switch back. Throwing in abs & cardio after most workouts.


Seems to work out for me. . . . I don't like keeping to an exact lifting schedule. Makes shit too boring. . . . Or if I feel weaker in a certain muscle group, I do another.

72 hours between muscle groups..

week 1 back/bi
week 2 bi/back with the 1st being the primary

remember eating and resting keeping nitrogen levels high is what makes us bigger/stronger..
