    Need New Workout Program

    What kind of training plan should I run with this. I'm interested in either a four day plan or 5 day. Looking for something new. I ran these programs in the past.

    5 day split
    Mon - Upper Power (5X5) Chest/Shoulders/Back
    Tues - Lower Power (5X5) Quads/Hams/Calves
    Wed - Off
    Thrus - Upper Hypertrophy (8-10reps) Chest/Arms
    Fri - Upper Hypertrophy (8-10 reps) Back/Shoulders
    Sat - Lower Hypertrophy (8 - 10 reps) Quads/Hams/Calves
    Sun - Off

    4 day split
    SAIS Training
    Mon - Chest/Biceps
    Tues - Legs
    Wed - Off
    Thrus - Shoulders/Triceps
    Fri - Back/Calves
    Sat - Off
    Sun - Off

    SAIS training involved 6 sets per body part. First exercise 3 sets of 6 reps with 5min rest. Second exercise 2 sets of 10 reps with 3 min rest. Third exercise 1 set of 20 reps. This training hits slow and fast twitching muscles.

    find out what works best for you. most likely once you find something that works good youll have to change it soon after, thats what always happens to me. the human body will eventually adapt to anything you throw at it(in the weight room). i always switch it up every 6-8 weeks or so

    So true! After 4 weeks of intense training the body will adjust to anything and become complacent to grow and/or over-trained.
