Hey fellas, I just wanted to post what my routine looks like and receive any feedback on it you might have good or bad. Here it is:
I train for 4 days on then 1 off for rest and just continue this so its not like I have the same schedule each week as it is just continuous.
DAY ONE: Back & Biceps (Lats, Rhomboids, Teres minor and major, middle Traps, Bis)
DAY TWO: Legs (Quads, Hams, Calves)
DAY THREE: Shoulders & Traps (Front, middle,and rear delts, Traps)
DAY FOUR: Chest & Ticeps (Full chest, triceps)
DAY FIVE: Rest
Then I start over at day one and continue this cycle.
How does it look? I've found that doing it this way instead of setting a weekly schedule is more beneficial in many ways. With a weekly schedule, unless your on a three day split, you only train each muscle once a week, With my routine they only get 4 days of rest. Some guys also take two days off per week so they either go 3 rest one then 2 rest one for 7 day week or they go 5 on 2 off. This seems like too much rest for me, and again, you split your whole body into 5 workouts and everything only gets hit once a week. That's my reasoning behind going with my routine. I might switch bi's to my shoulder day and leave back by itself, because as it stands I've got shoulders bythemselves and they're a pretty small muscle group. I pair back with bi's because they're secondary to all back movements besides isolations. Same reasoning for pairing chest with tri's. Anyway what do you think?
