Whats everyones generally training split?

Nick500 · 05-08-2005, 08:38 PM

Hi

what sort of split are you doing at the moment? i'm evaluating mine at the mo, given that i'm going to be doing slightly different training for my cut which starts in 3 days.

mine atm is:

day 1 : chest and triceps
day 2: back (and abs if i can be bothered)
day 3: shoulders and biceps
day 4: legs (and abs if i can be bothered)
day 5: day off

REPEAT.

i'm going to be training 45 minutes cardio in the mornings now in the 150bpm range at 8am, then weight training at 6pm.

I was considering adding an extra day to the routine so something like:

day 1: chest and abs
day 2: upper back and biceps
day 3: quads, hams, triceps
day 4: shoulders and abs
day 5: lower back and calves
day 6: off

REPEAT.

any thoughts?

This is mine ATM

Monday - Chest & Triceps
Tuesday - Back & Biceps
Wednesday - Rest Day
Thursday - Quads & Calves
Friday - Chest
Saturday - Shoulders and Hamstrings
Sunday - Rest Day

Training Chest twice a week as its a lagging Body Part for my training partner and I have used this method before to bring up lagging bodyparts, Can be used for other muscle groups. I will write it out in another post soon.

I am cutting in 2 weeks and my training will stay pretty much the same, the exercises performed will change every 3 weeks though, I will add 3 cardio sessions after training a week at 20 mins and build the times performed up to 40 mins over 3-4 weeks and also build up to doing cardio 6 times a week

Monday- Back & Biceps

Wednesday- Chest, Shoulders & Triceps

Friday- Legs & Abs

Its a fairly straight foward routine with plenty of rest but ive found this works better for me

It only takes 45-60mins each day with basic compound movements

My Split:

Day 1: Chest / Hamstrings / Abs
Day 2: Quads / Triceps
Day 3: Back / Biceps
Day 4: Shoulders / Calves / Traps

I do all of these on Monday to Friday as I work weekends. I have one off day in the week, but this varies.
