Thread: is this workout good?

That's not a workout - it's an arrangement of bodyparts.

What are your goals, and what exercises will you perform for this arrangement?

i was just wondering is it good to workout does bodyparts for the days i listed or should i change it up XD

Dunno. Answer my questions and we'll see.

You are not allowed to have body parts just movements of nonexistence in the make believe land of terminology.

How many exercises are you doing in each session?

What exercises are those?

How many sets?

What are the reps in those sets?

Need a bit more info that that, dude. Can't tell hardly anything from a split.

There are far better ways to train, plus you have the two greatest mods available. Ask your questions and answer theirs.

also for my goal im working on bulkin up

If you're trying to bulk up, I'd suggest as far routines are concerned, the 20 rep squat routine. Loaded with compounds and very effective. You need to be able to tolerate a lot of milk, as this is one of the main components of the diet. Milk is very effective, as are olive oil shots, as recommended by Built to help support test levels and an easy and effective way of adding calories to your diet. Gaz wrote about it a while back, and I've had always enjoyed using this routine on my clients whose goals are similar to yours.

Here's the way I like to do it:

REQUIREMENT: Drink a gallon of lowfat to whole milk (your choice) EVERYDAY.

For squats, pick a weight you can do just 10 reps with. go to 20, but take deep breath in between reps.

Session 1:
20 rep squats 1x20
Dumbbell Pullover; 1x12
5 minute rest;
Romanian Deadlifts; 2 warms, 1 work set of 5-10 reps
Weighted Pullups; 2 warms, 1 work set of 5-10 reps
.
Session 2:
20 rep standard deadlift 1x20
Dumbbell Pullover; 1x12
5 minute rest;
Barbell Push Press; 2 warms, 1 work set of 5-10 reps
Hang Cleans;2 warms, 1 work set of 5-10 reps
.
Session 3:
20 rep squats 1x20
Dumbbell Pullover; 1x12
5 minute rest;
Incline Bench Press; 2 warms, 1 work set of 5-10 reps
Barbell Rows; 2 warms, 1 work set of 5-10 reps

Depending on what you do for a living, I'd suggest utilizing 3 sessions of cardio (low impact) for better calorie partitioning.

How old are you?

2 suggestions; stay away from goofy supplements and just use food, protein powder, and basic creatine mono. Dont go nuts with costs. Keep it simple. You can purchase creatine for well under 17.00 at Walmart. Protein powder; just buy a good isolate (Bodytech is a well made cheap brand).

thanks for the info jugg gonna start doing deadlifts.squats and pullups :P

go to ExRx (Exercise Prescription) on the Net for proper technique and form videos. You'll get the proper way of using the exercise properly. One thing; dont pile a ton of weight on these moves at first. Get comfy with them first by using an olympic bar only. And stay away from the smith machine.

3x1 Forearm Power Thrust
3x8 Bicep Squeeze

I can't wait to do this program. I'll probably give it a go after my new bulk program (starting today) is done in a few months.

Juggernaut, your new avatar is badass.

I agree. This whole "low carb/grouchy" thing really agrees with him!

What happened to the cut?

Those sexy abs in your avatar agree with me too MA.

Thanks bud. I'm dieting now - I kinda miss being able to grate cheese on them.

I did it for a month. Saw some decent results, but it was my first cut and was more for practice. I planned on doing it for a month or more, but now I'm worried I'm beginning to lose muscle, so I'm stopping it to begin my much-anticipated volume program.

It's fine. I leaned down a fair bit, and my lifts didn't go down (made a few minor PRs). Just now it's getting to me, and I'm stressing out about losing gains. What I plan on doing is after each bulk program I'll do a brief 3-week cut program, so that I can lean out a bit after each bulk and practice cutting more and more. It was a lot of pressure to go into my first cut having never done one before. I tracked my diet and it went well, but I'm not confident enough in my cutting knowledge to keep going passed a certain BF. I cut pretty aggressively; I'm probably lucky I didn't lose much or any muscle, as, with cardio and general day to day stuff, I was running a major deficit.

It was great practice. It's cool to see major separations in my quads, and my rib cage/pecs/lats leaned down ridiculously. It's a bit of an ego kick to lose that little bit of fat mass, lol. I mean, I didn't have a ton, but as I leaned down I appeared a little smaller. I couldn't believe how much tighter my torso got. It really brought out the width of my lats.

Thanks for asking about it. Probably the biggest lesson I took out of it is tracking diet as carefully as I did. I'll definitely be bulking differently now.

Too much for arms and not enough for legs. Also, seems like too much for one week. Try upper body/lower body or push/pull split with one day rest for every day trained.

is this workout routine good?

alot of people train one targeted muscle per day. In my opinion, i say train what feels natural to you. I do like the two muscle groups per session, the only thing that is hurting your routine is two days off in a row. Ive enounterd lots of different styles of training. I always revert back to what feels natural, in time your body will let you know. Just my opinion.

And how does one go about feeling natural?

I've had that not-so-fresh feeling, but I usually douche and I'm good. Just asking.

That"s not a very efficient split. There is too much overlapping.
