Whats working well for my and is my favourite is
Mon:Chest,bi
Tue:Legs
Rest
Thu:Shoulders,tri
Fri:Back
do you guys think you would see better results by training bi's and tr's in the same day?
okay, yesterday in the gym i worked my chest only...it just seemed i wasnt working it for long enough :S..i was done and on to cardio pretty quick...
bench press- 70kg 8, 8, 6
bench press close grip- 50kg 6, 6, 6
incline bench- 40kg 8, 6, 6
dumbel flys- 16kgX2- 8, 8, 6
by the time i was finished i couldnt pos do anymore. you think i should lower the weight and maybe do more reps? it just seemed as though i was done really quick, and my chest couldnt take much more
May I ask how quick? Chest work for me is never over 40min. But if you want to go for more throw in a smaller muscle like bis or tris after chest.
I liked your workout but for me personally close grip bench isnt a chest exercise.
i used to work tris on inner grip at the end of the chest workout, sorry when i said inner on my last post i didnt mean close hand grip, i mean like parallel with my shoulder, if you get that. i finish that chest work out in 25min easy, then im on cardio for half hour, so im usually out of the gym in an hour
Thats pretty quick man. 12 sets would take twice as long for me,but I use many warmup sets. Dont need kardio! I dont.
what you mean "dont need cardio! i dont":S. i think im going to do a whole diff chest workout, out of curiosity whats your chest workout?
No,I didnt mean anything. I dont do cardio because Im lazy,thats all. If I do cardio I to do it after weights,so no hard feelings I hope.
My "typical" chest workout is
3 sets bench
3 sets incline bench
3 sets of wighted dips and
3 sets of flyes
Sometimes I skip the flyes,and rotate the exercises. Is it ok?
i never really do weighted dips tbh, i would sugest starting with wide grip bench and moving to the inner, thats just personal preference and what im used to, and no lol, no hard feelings lol, i just never knew what you was meaning by it thats all.![]()
my new plan:
Legs
Shoulders
Back
Chest
Arms
I usually dont make it 5 days in a row without a rest so either after day 2 or 3 Ill have a rest day. Legs will always be started on monday morning though.
Try this:
Mon-Biceps
Tue-Biceps
Wed-Biceps
Thu-Biceps
Fri-Biceps
Sat-Calves
Sun-Biceps
You should see great results following this schedule!....
gauge what u need by what u see in the mirror. need more chest then do more chest. i personally think that chest and arms are some of the most essential in giving that powerful look to a physique so i've been hitting my chest every three days high volume and am seeing good results. If you need more than try more volume, but I suggest at least 1 and a half minutes between sets or just 1 so you can make it without burning out. need more upper than do more upper sets first or lower or middle. whatever you think you know?
mon:triceps/shoulders
tues:biceps/abs
