Which Workout?
i am 5'11 212 around 10-12%
i am trying to decide on which split i wanna use. first of all i have been doing
monday: chest/delt/tri
tuesda: legs
wednsday: cardio
Thursday: back/bi/trap
friday: cardio
sat: off
sunff
I recently tried a new split and seemed to like it but don't know if i am overtraining on this new one: i want to add size to my biceps as they are lagging(and yes i deadlift and do alot of compound movements)
monday: chest/tri
tuesday: back/bi
wednesday: cardio
thursday: legs
friday: shoulder/biceps
sat: off
sunday: off
i only do two exercises totaling 5-6 sets for bi's each time i work them and focus on the outer bicep on back day and focus on inside on shoulder day.
I dont know if i would be overtraining doing this. I dont really get sore from doing biceps so that is whey i was thinking of trying this and i have never done a muscle twice in a week.
I also feel like i am hindering growth of tri' by doing back/bi on the next day. Maybe just in my head
But if it is now wise to try one of these routines i thought of this
Monday: Chest/Tri/Delt
Tuesday: Back/bi/trap
wednesday: off
Thursday : legs
Friday: off
Sat: start over.
or
Monday: Chest/tri
Tuesday: back bi
wednesdayff
thursday: Delts/traps
friday: legs
sat: off
Sun: start over
I can post my entire workout for sets/reps, but i don't feel i need ot b/c i know yall will approve.
thanx for any input.Last edited by getbig888; 07-12-2006 at 02:27 PM.

why don't u try doing chest/biceps, and back/triceps, that way ur hitting your biceps indirectly on back day, and then directly with ur chest and bicep day. I find i get better results working opposing muscle groups like this, such as push/pull. Just a suggestion though

I like the sounds of your second split a lot more than your first. Chest/tri, back/bi etc., is the better of the two. I really wouldn't throw in 3 body parts...your body does not have enough energy to fully tax each muscle group! You may think that you have enough energy, but in most cases you are pretty spent after two muscle groups.
