New wirkout regime

[thomas8883]

For the last couple of months my routine has been
Sun calfs,abs,forearms
Mon chest
Tue back
Wed shoulder
Thu arms
Fri legs
But I'm gonna start a cycle soon and because my recovery time is gonna be quicker I'm thinking of changing it to this while on cycle what do you think
Sun (back, biceps & calf)
Mon (chest,triceps & abs)
Tue (shoulders, legs & forearms)
Wed rest
Repeat Thursday, Friday & Saturday
Not sure if it too much or should I just stick to my usual routine

I'm in the process of losing my body fat and my training was what you are about to start
while on your cycle.

I have now been doing my training the same way you have been doing one body part a day
but I don't feel satisfied from this as I feel that I'm losing muscle as there a week between
doing each body part.

How have you been with that first program you were doing ?

I felt better doing the 2nd program as I felt I was working harder.

[thomas8883]

It going alright but I've done it for a couple of months now and I think it run it course I have gained about 7 pounds (obviously my diet is a massive part of that) and I think it'll be good to shock the body and a more intense workout. ye fck it I'm going to start it tomorrow and jump on my cycle in 2 weeks

[kenny3478]

Think I will stick with the one body part a week do couple of month then go back to how I always trained
the program your about to start enjoy it mate.

[thomas8883]

Will do wanna get as much as possible out of a cycle otherwise it going to waste. I gained 7 pounds in 2 months doing it that way and if your working long hours throughout the day it ideal. quicker sessions in the gym

[kenny3478]

I think thats why I feel I'm not achieving anything as I work offshore and have loads of time to do my training
and also when I'm on my 7 weeks off work I have my gym to my self so when my session is over in about 40min
I feel like I'm not working hard enough will I see gains from doing one body part a week ? Or is it not enough?.

Also will this work when I'm trying to lower my BF I'm 22% and wanting to get down to 15% so I can do my first cycle ?

[thomas8883]

Need to get more cardio in I'm no expert but when I was shredding I was doing hiit then a bit of weight training. But I was concentrating more on the hiit cardio than weight it definitely worked for me.

[kenny3478]

I'm planning on doing 5 x 45min sessions a week on cardio how long did it take you to get down to the weight you wanted to be at for your cycle ?

[thomas8883]

I was pretty fat so it took me about 3 months to get down to weight got my bf down to 10

[kenny3478]

Shit mate that is pretty good 3month.

My doc says I'm 22.4% BF I weigh at 93kg.

I have my Macros at
P/245
C/235
F/66
Do you know what you had your macros set at while losing BF ?

If you don't mind me asking what was your BF before you started ?

Just trying to get a rough idea how long it's going to take me.

Yes mate training looks solid my diet was roughly the same the only thing I did different was limit my carbs throughout the week to about a 100 a day and increased on rest day I up it to like 500 for that day loads of rice and bread yes BREAD!! (Shoot me lol)

[thomas8883]
