working different areas on different days
So I was just wondering what is the most effective way to do a workout. IE Chest and shoulders one day or Biceps and triceps the other. Im not exactly sure of the combinations to maximize workout efficiency.

Re: working different areas on different days
A simple beginner split I'd reccommend is:
Day 1: Squat/Compound pull (pullups, cleans, bent over rows etc.) Day 2: Deadlift/Compound press (bench, standing military, dips) Day 3: cardio or cardio with whatever bodybuilding lameness you want to do (bicep curls, skull krushers, lat pulldowns etc.) Day 4: rest Getting every individual muscle group (euphemism for hitting bi's and tri's) is extremely over rated imo. Do the big compound lifts and functional strength and size will follow. Do bicep curls and shoulder raises, and um... your arms will get sore. |

Re: working different areas on different days
If you're not already huge, do Rippetoe's Starting Strength program. Most of it is outlined on this page:
http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=998224 Workout A: Ass-to-grass squat, bench press, deadlift Workout B: ATG squat, standing military press, bent over rows (pendlay rows) Do three workouts per week, on non-consecutive days. Week 1: Monday-workout A wednesday-b friday-a Week 2: monday-b wednesday-a friday-b |
