I agree completely. My reason for asking is this: I highly doubt you are going to experience a pace of hypertrophy that is dangerous for your connective tissues, using natural means.
ok. ever heard of "too fast, too soon" syndrome? this basically means that you bite off more than you can chew in terms of exericse. if the author of this thread attempted to follow the program offered by shafted twice he would be exerting too much stress upon his tendon and ligament tissue as compared to musclular tissue that heals more rapidly due to the greater vascular content.
typically a newbie to weight training should rest up for 72 hours between splits. in essence exercising each muscle group once per week.
there was a wise old German anatomist named Julius Wolff whom is highly regarded as a the founder of the tissue response to stress theory i suggest you forget searching around the forum as people keep advising me and check out some real scientific data rather then 3rd had bull that is generated from chinese whispers.
sooo i do day one on monday, day 2 on tuesday and day 3 on wednesday then day one again on thrusday when do i rest? is this the best for me? i have been lifting for a year and my diet is very good, i need a new routein im bulkin up again. i need the best for bulking up bigJust wondering, where did you get your information from? I can tell you that this is a very poorly designed routine.
The reason that I bolded your quote is because you strongly contradict yourself in a very important aspect of weight training. You should be doing compound exercises, whereas in your second and third days, it is all isolation. A much better routine would be something like:
Day 1:
*Squats
*Deadlifts
*Lat Pulldowns
*Bench Press
*Shoulder Press
*Dumbell Curls
Day 2:
*Straight-Leg Deadlifts
*Weighted Pull-Ups
*Decline Bench Press
*Lunges
*Weighted Dips
*Shrugs or Shoulder Press
Day 3:
*Front Squats
*Romanian Deadlifts
*Incline Bench Press
*Various Rows
*Military Press
*Skullcrushers
which is a 3-day full-body routine, or another great choice would be a push/pull routine that stroutman and Tony speak of, have a look around the forums for a bit more information on it.
In theory this may seem true. However, I have yet to see a beginner injure their connective tissue while following a resistance training routine with proper guidance that consists of training certain body parts multiple times per week. I think you would have trouble making buy into the concept, no matter what names you throw around.
That said, I would also love to hear more debate for your side of the story from you, or anyone else. I think this is a very interesting topic we have going here.
