Hi,
this is my first post so first of all I'd like to say hello to everyone!
I've been training for only about 6 months, but I'm really happy with my progress in that time. I'm currently bulking, and for the last 4 months or so I was doing a 4 day split routine where I did Chest on day 1, Back day 2, Arms/Shoulders day 3 and Legs day 4. I decided to change this however as I felt I wasn't getting enough recovery time, particularly for my biceps as I had my Back day and my Arms day right beside each other which, in hindsight, was pretty foolish.
Anyway, I've now moved to a 3 day P/P/L routine which looks like the following:
Day 1 (Push):
Flat Bench Press 3x8
Decline DB Press 3x10
Incline DB Press 3x10
Flys 3x(10-14)
Tricep Pulldowns 3x(10-14)
Day 2 (Pull):
Deadlift 3x10
BB Bent-Over Rows 3x8
Cable Pulldowns 3x10
Ez Curls 3x10
Preacher Curls 3x10
DB Hammer Curls 3x(10-14)
DB Shrugs 3x14
Day 3 (Legs + Shoulders):
Squats 3x(10-14)
Seated DB Shoulder Press 3x8
Calf Raise 3x14
Leg Press 3x10
Leg Curls 3x14
With a day off after Day 2, and again after Day 3.
Does anybody have any critique or comments about this routine or does it look ok??
Cheers! :beerbang:
