QUOTE(-ccy- @ Dec 2 2014, 08:11 PM) That's why you don't assign an arm day. Train more muscle group at once. More compound movement. If you ever done leg day, 1 hour is never enough IF you did squat or deadlift. QUOTE(Manlet @ Dec 2 2014, 11:26 PM) 2 hours i strongly believe in volumes so i'll try to get as much sets i can until i really cannot take it, but i dont train one part a day tho, 2 parts a day, except leg day, leg day squat alone can take me 1 hours + without even realizing it. totally agree...squats and deadlifts take a lot of time (and rests in between) my average gym time is 1.5-2hrs, 3-4x a week This post has been edited by pangke: Dec 3 2014, 02:55 PM |

i incorporated legs to every workout (squats, deadlifts, leg press) so that's why it takes me 1.5hrs at least in the gym.
1st day: shoulders (4-5 exercises) and legs
2nd day: back (4-5 exercises) and legs
3rd day: chest (4-5 exercises) and legs
4th day (schedule permitting): arms (3 bicep exercises, 3 tricep exercises) and legs
i have skinny legs that's why i work them out every gym day
but yeah, a lot of people spend more time chit chatting, resting or even checking girls out in the gym rather than sweating it out

QUOTE(-ccy- @ Dec 4 2014, 01:43 PM) You better follow some better routine. Training legs with high intensity 3 times is a max per week. If you train them 4 times per week, you ain't training hard enough. Deadlift is extremely taxing your CNS and normal lifter shouldn't be doing deadlift more than twice per week. Even once per week is MORE THAN ENOUGH. well, the 4th day comes very seldom anyway. so basically i'm just training them 3x a week for deadlifts i'm just lifting 70kg. very light for many here but heavy for me...i'm building strength for my deadlifts you see. squats and legpress are 60kg and 160kg respectively..still light. as you can see in my avatar my legs look skinny that's why i'm trying to build strength first and then after that bulk up my legs OR should i really change this routine? i feel that if i don't push my legs more they won't grow and i'll end up looking like johnny bravo |

QUOTE(Armesh @ Dec 4 2014, 07:05 PM) Rule no 1: Never ever make your own routine. Rule no 2: Never do a bodypart split if you are natural Rule 1 can only and only be violated if you have years and years of READING on strength programming and time in the gym with an almost 1000lbs total. guess you're right...i did chest and legs today (squats and leg press only, can no longer do a deadlift) i can do it back then but maybe because the weights were lighter compared to now. anyway, rule no.2...so you mean i should do a full body workout instead of splitting? i've been doing body part split years ago then stopped for a year or so and did more running then went back to weight lifting january of this year... |

QUOTE(Armesh @ Dec 5 2014, 03:09 PM) If you are at advance stage - http://www.exrx.net/Testing/WeightLifting/...tandardsKg.html - then you can do a Push Pull/Lower Upper split. But then again, refer to Rule No 1. i fall under the untrained category in squats lol  very nice reference you provided bro...highly appreciate it!  |
