One of the reasons I like it/works for me is that when one muscle group is sore you're working out the complementary muscle group so you work out a little soreness that way - i.e. when your bis are sore and you're working on tris the next day then you naturally will use the bicep some

Day 1 chest/tri
Day 2 back/bi
Day 3 legs
Day 4 shoulders


I don't assign days of the week to workouts because if I miss a day I just do that part the next day I workout

BilJ -

a true body builder should never doubt his "workout split" chief. However, maybe you should mix in some cool MMA workouts at the local cage fighting gym and the LARON LANDRY WORKOUT.

I have source who said they really do the trick.

a lot of you oughtta try throwing in a rest day in the week



?

My workout has two rest days during the week plus rest on the weekend.

also, abs 3x a week? i'd be willing to bet you'd get more results if you fixed a few things in the kitchen before over working that a muscle group


Did you see the workload? It's not much. I also eat well. Eggs and whole wheat toast every morning, salad for lunch everyday, lean dinners nearly every night. I splurge a little on the weekend.

Monday - Back
Tuesday - Chest
Wednesday - Legs
Thursday - Arms
Friday - Shoulders/Traps

I do cardio when I have time after the workout.
Abs and lower back extension every day.
I want to get a good yoga/stretching day in. My hip flexibility is terrible.

I also might go back to a push/pull/legs routine or A/B

Y'all spend an insane amount of time at the gym.

I do two days a week. Full body each time and I split them with pick up basketball in between.

Each work out is:
Chest/back (3 x pyramids 10/8/6). And I superset them. So I do chest set. Then back set. Then chest again. Repeat
Legs/chest superset
Back/legs superset
Abs
