    The best full-body workout program for muscle gain use mostly compound exercises because they work many muscles at once. Avoid training to failure while working out on full-body programs because training to failure will require more recovery time. Try to increase weights lifted or reps performed each week to continue seeing progression. The abdominals, calves, triceps and biceps do not need to be directly stimulated each day because they get worked in the big compound exercises.


    Day 1 - 4x8
    Squats
    Bench Press
    Pullups
    Military Press
    Barbell Curls
    Ab Roller

    Day 3 - 5x5
    Deadlifts
    Bent Over Rows
    Dumbbell Incline Bench Press
    Lateral Raises
    Dumbbell Tricep Extensions
    Hammer Curls

    Day 5 - 3x12
    Lunges
    Dips
    Chin-ups
    Push Press
    Seated Calf Raises
    Plate Twists

    Can I start this workout for cutting bodyfat since it is around 20 % right now?

    I could do some cardio on non training days?

    Yes this work out will help you burn calories; any workout helps you burn more calories than without. Are you looking for work out whose primary objective is to burn calories or to gain muscle? If you are looking for full body work out that burns the most calories I would do a program like P90X.

    You can do cardio every other day or every day which ever works better for you.
