    Question Looking for the best 3 days a week workout program

    Hello guys

    I have been working with a 5 days a week program for a while now

    Monday chest
    Tuesday back
    Wednesday legs
    Thursday shoulders
    Friday arms
    Weekend : rest

    However, i am not able to fully recover and it is taking too much time

    So i would like to move 3 days a week workout program

    My aim is maximum hypertrophy

    My current 1 rep max flat bench press is 270 LBS

    Waiting your detailed workout program suggestions / plans

    Thank you very much

    Give all exersizes and sets per day on each body part

    I'd incorporate chest and back into one day. 4 exersize 4 sets each chest and 4 exersize 4 sets each back. Then rest day then do shoulders tri's and biceps sane day 3 exersize 4 sets shoulder, 3 exersize 4 sets triceps, 4 exersize 4 sets biceps. Rest day then legs. Rest and repeat.

    Google full body routines. Most are 3 days a week. They're mostly thought of as novice programs, but that's complete BS. There are a lot of coaches/trainers that are starting to incorporate them into their clients routines as more and more studies are coming out showing they're just as effective with proper programming.

    I do like them as well.

    2 exersises for back, chest, bis and shoulders and tri

    10 exersises, 30 sets done in circuit.

    Science is on the hands of full body routines. MPS is elevated for a max of 48 hours. With more experienced athletes this drops to 36 hours.
    So hitting the muscles 3 times a week will result in more growth, if your diet is in place and you get enough rest.

    if this takes too much time just workout at your house, 0 excuses just buy a few weight plates, don't even need bars really. going to the gym and getting ready takes more time than the training does.

    or if you're super cheap, 3 gallons of water with a shirt or towel tying them together, boom arm workout done . shit just go in the woods and find a log

    3 day per week program

    day 1 - chest, front delts, quads
    day 2 - back, traps, rear delts, hamstrings
    day 3 - arms, calves, abs, side delts

    want to hit the gym more often.. just keep going from workout to workout. want to mix up the stimulus, then do the above 3 workouts focused on high reps (20 reps or so) to focus on metabolite and blood volume, then repeat the same 3 workouts next time with low reps (6-8 reps) and focus on mechanical tension and load.
