Tall

Unless you are BB'ing Mr Youngster, you'll probably find you progress better in terms of Strength and Size if you cut down your split.

I don't know where you are currently in terms of Physique etc

But a day for Shoulders and Traps at anything other than an Intermediate level onwards seems unproductive to me.

Front Delts are going to get smashed on Bench Press anyway.

If anything your Rear Delts are likely to be the underdeveloped part. Most peoples are.

But even then some nice heavy rows should hammer them nicely.

Leg session looks good though - nice and simple

Youngster

so what do you recommend for shoulders then? Perhaps DB & BB press in the same session rather than raises?

As for chest / triceps today. (Last session in my garage)

Flat Bench press
Warmups
85kg - 8
90kg - 6
92.5kg - 6
95kg - 4 (bit ambitious)

Incline Db press
33.5kg - 9, 7, 6, 5

DB flyes
16kg - 12, 12

Tricep pulldown

35kg - 10,10,8

Bench dips
BW+10kg - 15, 12, 12

Not a bad session today, but still disgusted at how week my legs are!!! My Bench press is heavier than my squat. Will have to sort that one out!

Diet wise, today has been pathetic.

thanks

could do mate-
i only do one or the other for shoulders and thats it...
i find shoulders get such a hammering from other exercises and its enuff.

Hard as hell eating like this...Gets easier as the weeks go bye...Keep up the good work...

FAT BOY

dont worry m8 your leg strengh will come and when it does you will see good gains throughout your body

Youngster

I hope so fatboy .

Well i joined a gym today and after flying through back and biceps in an hour i've realised i don't need to do a 4 day split and will be able to quite easily fit it all in to a 3 day split. So this week i will train tues (today)wed and fri. But from next week it will be mon, wed, fri.

Todays session:

Deadlift
-warmups
-120kg - 8
-130kg - 6
-140kg - 6
-140kg - 6

Seated cable row
60kg - 8,6
55kg - 8,7

Lat pulldown
60kg - 8,7
55kg - 8,8

BB Preacher Curl

DB Hammer Curl
15kg - 8,8,8,8

What a difference deadlifting with an olly bar and 20kg plates. In my garage i was using a little thin bar with 10kg plates. Form is much better now that the bar is that little bit higher off the ground. All in all, not a bad session. Diet going well so far but will post the whole thing later tonight.

Thanks

Tall
