I used to do it with chest and tri's but it became 2 much for one workout. I used to do: Day 1 - Chest/shoulder/tri's Day 3 - Back/biceps/abs.........(occasionally!) Day 5 - Legs Cheers, Matt |

What im going to try is training the rear delts with back, and the front and sides with chest! might see how that works! ______________________ Benj |

At the moment I have alot of time available over the summer and I will be able to make time when I go back to uni as well. I can workout whenever. My shoulders are incredibly weak compared to other muscles. |

Nothing wrong with being a beginner, everyone was a beginner at one point or another. In addition, with the benefit of being so young and the amazing changes that can occur when you first begin a exercise program you are going to be able to progress very well, if you are committed. I think three days a week is fine for now, definitely enough frequency for someone fresh to lifting. I would go with a similar program to what you are using, but split up shoulders(which has already been said). Keep the sessions as brief as possible and eat like it's going out of fashion. IF you are comfortable with free weights, this is a suitable program. If you are still with machines(which is fine for only 3 months experiance) modify this workout to suit the machines you have available. Day 1(Push)- Barbell Bench Press- 4 sets Incline Dumbbell Press- 2 sets Incline Dumbbell Flys- 2 sets Shoulder Press(preferably machine) 3 sets Lateral Raises- 2 sets Day 2(Legs)- Free Bar Squat- 4 sets Leg Extension- 3 sets Hamstring Curl- 4 sets Straight Leg Calf Raise- 4 sets Lower Back work(you choose the exercise)- 3 sets Day 3(Pull)-Wide Grip Lat Pull Down- 4 sets 1 Arm Dumbbell Row- 4 sets Seated Row- 3 sets Bent Over Laterals- 2 sets Abs work(you choose the exercise)- 3 sets Go for it-> What you put in, you will get out. ______________________ "You're hit man, you're bleedin"-"Ain't got time to bleed" |
