Hi every1

I have been feeling a bit stuck lately. I have tried sticking to various routines, but it's always hard for me; mainly because I have basketball practise 2-3 times a week too.

Anyway, I feel that I need to stick to a full-body workout each time in order to get it all done often enough to make gains.

My workouts would be as follows (plz gimme feedback on this):

Monday - Basketball practise (2 hours)

Tuesday - Lifting

Wednesday - Rest

Thurs - Basketball (1½ hours)

Friday - Lifting

Saturday - Rest

Sunday - Lifting


Each lifting session would typically consist of basic compound stuff, but many of the excersises will be changed from time to time...(however, the first 3 mentioned will always be included)

Bench Press, DeadLifts, Squats, Bent Over Rows, EZ Barbell curls, Skull crushers (french presses), pull ups and chin-ups + situps etc.

Why do you think this? Is it because you might miss the odd workout?

I haven't done full body workouts in almost 4 years because I always found that I was training while still sore from the last workout. You'll have to give it a go and see how it works for you.

Would you recomend something like GoPro's "Power, Rep, Shock" routine instead?



Posted by: Scotty the Body

I've been using it for at least 3 months now and I'm still seeing gains from it.
So yes, I would recomend it.

I think the thing I like the best is that it changes each week so you don't get so board with it.

But one last question: I want a 3 day split. Would the following be way off? -

Day 1 – basketball / cardio

Day 2 – back & triceps

Day 3 – rest

Day 4 – basketball / cardio

Day 5 – chest & biceps

Day 6 – rest

Day 7 – legs & shoulders
