    Need to save time

    I am going through a stretch where I very pressed for time and need to condense my workout as much as possible. I am thinking of doing the following
    Mon - Benchpress 6-8 sets
    Wed- Deadlifts 6-8 sets
    Friday- Squats 6-8 sets

    Can I facilitate growth using just these three movements. This is only a 4-6 week time frame that I need to do this.Will any bodypart suffer doing this workout?

    Thanks

    Pressed for time?

    Ever try HIT?

    Here's a HIT 3 day split I've used in the past.

    Everything is done 1 set to failure, 12-20 rep range for lower body movements, 6-10 for upper.

    Monday
    lateral raise
    military press
    fly, pec deck, dumbbell or cable
    30 degree incline press
    triceps pressdown
    weighted parallel bar dip

    Wednesday
    bent-arm pullover
    seated cable or bent-over barbell row
    biceps curl
    weighted chin-up, close-grip, palms face you
    shrug
    wrist curl

    Friday
    leg extension
    squat or leg press
    leg curl, toes pointed
    standing calf raise or on leg press machine
    hanging reverse crunch
    bicycle movement

    Yes, that will work fine for that time frame, there are other things you could do like HIT as Bear said or working antagonistic bodyparts together in super sets to save time while still getting a good workout.
    Cool
