yo man i have a very similar 3 day split routine... however i do my chest and bi's then back and tri's
I've been told because chest works tri's as well they are already fatigued before you start to work on them, so to split them up (same with back and bi's).... however I see how people could prefer doing the plan your on, as they will be doing extra sets before to overload/warm-up and rip that muscle (the bis or tris). But if your arms are growing on that then you might as well keep it the same for the meantime. I have the same problem wit my chest, I swear it has lost size since I stopped training it as often (I always used to start on the chest when I was doing my total body newbie workouts every other day). So I think I should be hitting my chest more than once a week now.... so in 'workout 3' I put some machine bench and pec decs inbetween my shoulders and legs. My chest feels a lot stronger (I can only think because my chest is more used to the heavy training i have done on it over the last few years, always putting it first etc... it now needs to be worked out more often to keep seeing gains) I also do some extra shoulder presses on a monday to keep that going (my chest and shoulders are the 2 places i really need to get bigger on, i still look a big narrow up top). My shoulders also feel much stronger on a fri because of this. umm try that technique of adding a few extra sets in here and there on the muscles you want to build up a bit faster on/struggling to gain on |
