New Workout Plan

**sara** · 04-07-2004, 08:24 PM

I'm looking a new 3 days training plan
Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays OR Sundays..

#1 Back/Biceps
#2 Chest/Tricpes
#3 Shoulders/Lower Body
-----------------------------------
Or:

#1 Push (Chest, Shoulders, Some Lower Body push)
#2 Pull (Back, Biceps, Tricpes, Some Lower Body Pull)
#3 Push (Chest, Shoulders, Some Lower Body Push)

I would rotate the push/pull routine (one week I would do 2 push days, and the week after I would do 2 pull days)
-----------------------------------------
Or:

# 1 Back/Triceps
# 2 Chest/Biceps
# 3 Shouldes/Lower Body
---------------------------------
Or:

# 1 Chest/Biceps
# 2 Back/Lower Body
# 3 Shoulders/Triceps

how about push/pull/legs? that would fit real well and a change from what you were normally doing!

All of those ideas are perfectly valid including Aetherjen's suggestion. I have heard a lot of positive response from a couple of friends by doing back/biceps and chest/triceps (Sometimes shoulders too) on the same day. Unfortunately, I have no personal experience with with that split to pass along.

I did do chest/biceps and back/triceps for a little bit. To be honest, I really didn't like that split all that much. In addition, my current split is 4 days (Which I really enjoy), so it would not work for you.

Don't forget to consider a full body workout either. If you have never done it before, then you may be pleasantly suprised by the results.

AJ- Push/Pull routine is great! but I don't think working on my chest and shoulders same day is a good idea.. I love working on shoulders and chest and I want to train hard when I work on these two body parts.. so working them the same day is not going to help

What if I do :

Push- Chest/ABS/Cardio
Pull- Back/Biceps
Push- Shoulders/ Lower Body

I would do 2 days of push and 1 day of pull every week..
Is this ok?

* where would the triceps fall? Push days or Pull days?

CowPimp- I might be considering a full body workout if the trainer that I will see this weekend would give me a 3 day full body workout

Triceps are on a push day.

This routine would help your chest and Shoulders stay fresh..

Chest/Biceps/Forearms
Back/Shoulders/Triceps
Legs/Abs

Thanks camarosuper6

I will look into it

The link you posted have a 3 day routine?

**camarosuper6** · 04-08-2004, 01:51 PM

Yea, Hypertrophy-specific training(HST) is based on a each bp 3 days a week principle. I currently use a version of it an it works very well for me.

Read up on the site, I find it really interesting.

**camarosuper6** · 04-08-2004, 01:52 PM

You basically do 3 total body workouts per week (or like me split them up into upper and lower).

**sara** · 04-08-2004, 01:54 PM

Thanks

I will read it today, after I get back from school

**sara** · 04-08-2004, 06:43 PM

**sara** · 04-08-2004, 06:44 PM
