Scrutinise my routine 03 March 2010 00:40 (permalink)
Well I've recently started back to training and have veered more towards a full body workout but not completely. The routine is as follows (cardio not included)

Monday
bi's (2 exercises)  3 sets each
Chest ( 2 exercises) for 3 sets each
Back ( 2 Exercises ) 2 sets each
Abs ( 2 Exercises )  3 sets each

Tuesday
tri's (2 ex for 3 sets)
Back ( 2 ex for 3)
Shoulders ( 2 ex for 3)

Wednesday
Tri's (2 ex for 3)
Bi ( 2 ex for 2)
Shoulders (2 ex for 2)
Chest (2 ex for 3)

This is sort of a split/ full body hybrid (in a way). I eventually want to go back to doing splits but maybe after a month of doing this just to breaks things up. Any opinions welcomed.

    It's either split or not so forget hybrids, and obviously it is not full body as half of your body is missing. Is there some specific reason you're not training legs?

    It is hard to tell as there's no info on movements and sets reps but... The above I would assume is complete rubbish. Why?

    No leg training. If you can, train them
    Poor training order. Train chest and back before arms
    More volume on chest than back. This should be the other way round for 95% of people

    Back to the drawing board.

    Why not have a loot at the routines sticky at the top of the sub forum menu?

      x2 - Unless you physically can't then you should deffo train legs.
      A little rule of thumb that I got use to doing is as follows ( I know it is obvious)
      On Back day do deadlifts first
      On leg day do squats first
      On chest day do bench press first
      On shoulder day do Shoulder press first.
      Then put the other exercises in around it. Doing deads, squats etc will able you to shift the most weight in turn, if performed correctly will offer up the best results ie big arms, big back so on and so forth etc.
