Yes, three times a week is unforgivable. That split is very disorganised. It makes a whole lot more sense to put biceps with back (since your back day is all on its own), and put triceps either with shoulders or chest. Do one specific forearm workout a week, because back day will automatically work them quite hard. Traps are a back muscle, logic suggests that it should be worked on back day.Originally Posted by freak_of_nature_86
Try something like this.
day 1 - chest/calves/abs
day 2 - back/biceps/traps
day 3 - Rest
day 4 - shoulders/tris
day 5 - quads/hams/calves/abs
or this
day 1 - chest/tris/shoulders
day 2 - calves/abs
day 3 - back/biceps/traps
day 4 - calves/abs
day 5 - quads/hams
I'd recommend either because there is little overlapping, and you would be putting corresponding bodyparts together, which allows you to hit them harder with more total weight.
Flexor... nice splits I may change mine up soon to go along with this.
I'll post it up with exercises first though cause I'm afraid I'll overdo my shoulders with them on chest day.
What shoulder exercise would you do as to avoid hitting the part of the shoulder thats already been hit with incline chest?
The first split is very good if you feel you need a separate shoulder day. I personally do this one below though. I don't directly work front delts myself, especially if I tried out incline. If you do incline, leave out the military press, otherwise you could include it after chest. I also don't have a separate shoulder day because the delts are hit all the time by the big exercise days, by bench pressing and rowing. I feel only the medial delts need specific attention.Originally Posted by Superballer
