ok i just was told by a guy with his degree in whatever it is you need to be good at knowing how to put workouts together; he told me that this type routine would be best:
workout 5 times a week but workouts are small
Day 1 (Chest and Biceps)
A1) 30-degree incline DB Bench Press
A2) Incline Bicep Curls
Day 2 (Quad Dom Legs and Calves)
A1) Narrow Stance Squat
A2) Calve Press in a Leg Press Machine
Day 3 (Back and Triceps)
A1) Pullups
A2) Dips
Day 4 (Hip Dom Legs and Shoulders)
A1) Deadlift
A2) Standing DB Military Press
Day 5 Off
The set/rep scheme for all exercises is 5x5; if you are unfamilar with this type of set up, here is how to perform it:
Your starting weight should be your 5RM. Due to neuromuscular fatigue, you will most likely NOT be able to get 5 reps on your 4th or 5th set. For example, your first bench press workout may look like this:
200 x 5
200 x 5
200 x 5
200 x 4
200 x 3
Stick with the 200lbs and try to improve the total number of reps performed with each workout. Eventually, you will be able to do all 5 sets with 5 reps. Once you can, bump the weight up to 205 and start over (if it were a heavier exercise like the dead or squat, bump the weight up 10lbs as opposed to 5).
i copied and pasted from the website; can some of you guys comment on this type of routine???
