    yea thats a bit much, especially for the larger muscle groups like legs, back, and chest, if you are hitting them hard, they need more time to recover

    You grow when you are at rest, not when you are in the gym

    How long are your workouts??

    Winny by itself is NOT a good idea at all !!!

    It is supressive and WILL shut down your natural Test production . Why no test with that?

    no test because i dont have access im in another country at this point so it wasnt an option, my work outs change from week to week but basically like this
    usually about 18 sets besides biceps there usually bout 12 sets
    work out is usually hour and a half long
    legs im doing this:
    2 warm up sets leg extensions
    4 sets lunges at leas 10 reps but i dont count to much
    2 sets front squats
    2 sets regular squats
    dead lifts not off the floor
    end with leg extensions

    so are you saying its better to have 4 days of rest? per muscle group?
    and will i be fine with the nolvadex to kick my natural test back up

    It looks a bit excessive to me as well but judging from your stats it's not hurting you too much.

    thats way to muc bunched in there. when you train legs you should'nt have time to train shoulders and forearms afterwards. i personally train 1 muscle group a day and i kill that muscle. the last thing i want to do when im done is move on to another especially 2 large groups

    The only possible way you can train like that is if your calorie intake(protein/carb) is high enough to feed and fill your muscles. I train 6 days per week but I break chest up ( flat bench one day/ incline another) back (upper/lower) legs (quads/hams) off of that I will work arms and shoulders in depending on the day. Remember when you work back ( if done hard your getting biceps involed) same thing applies to chest w/ tris.. At the end of the day keep it simple work the muscle... feed the muscle..... rest the muscle...

    Yea, I definatly don't care for the way you have this split up. Also how long is your rest time? If it feels like your not doing enough maybe its because you take to long between sets. Personally I always try to keep it under 90 seconds, depending on the lift.

    If i were going to run a 3 day split working the whole body twice a week(which I do), It would look something like this (which it does.)

    I sometimes only train legs one day per week. Been exercising long enough that i kind of just do it by feel for how much rest my body needs. Also if i need an extra rest day I just take it. Doesn't happen often though, maybe a little more an once a month. However it will take you awhile to recognize when you need a rest and when you don't.


    All exercises are done 3x6-8 unless stated otherwise. Day1 Chest/back

    Flat bench
    incline bench
    Barbell pullovers
    Chinups(wide grip if you can, the wider the better) Do as many as possible until you get to 50 reps however many sets it takes. You may need a spotter at first depending on how strong your lats are.
    Bent over rows
    Heavy deadlifts Sets of 8,6,4 to failure
    Crunches- Feet on a bench, legs at 90 degree angle. crunch by bringing your rib cage towards your pelvis and do a full flex at peak contraction.
    Do 5 sets of 25.

    Day2 shoulders/biceps/triceps

    Clean and press
    lateral dumbell raises- don't swing the arms, resist all the way down
    Heavy upright rows sets of 8,6,4 till failure
    Heavy push press sets of 8,6,4 to failure
    e-z bar curls
    seated dumbell curls
    close grip bench press
    standing barbell extensions
    wrist curls
    reverse wrist curls
    reverse crunches done on a bench-5 sets of 25 done same way as crunches

    Day 3 legs

    Squats
    lunges
    leg curls
    calf raises 5x15
    straight leg deadlifts
    good mornings (do heavy once a week)
    crunches

    workouts tend to range between 50-75 minutes
