Hey Fellas .... as the title suggestes I am an engineering student who really loves to workout (mainly weights). Past summer I took up weight trainning and gained like 5-8 pounds of muscle mass. Now I am in school and in 3rd year of engineering. This has seriously effected my workout routine. I was wondering if you guys could help me out. I am looking for an effective 3-day routine. So please me out, as don't wanna loose all the muscle mass i gained and transform into a fat blob again ... Thank you all

You could always use the same 3 day routine I use

Saves you a lot of time and builds mental toughness.

I agree with DD. You should give HIT a try. An engineering student is a student who spends a lot of time studying. Well, a successful engineering student with a good GPA anyway. Less time in the gym means more time to study, and more time to get pussy...

The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

Man being in engineering u can only do one thing either have more time to study or pussy ... both happening simultaneously is very rare

thanks for your posts

engineering students get pussy?

j/k man.

I'd say give HIT a try, or a full body routine 3x/week or something like push/pull/legs.

Take a look at the journal section and you will get great ideas on splits etc.

Hi, I was an engineering and then MBA student too !! I know it can be very hard to find time.

At the least you can do squats, calfs and rows one day. Shoulder press, biceps, triceps, chest another day, just once a week. Keep the intensity high so that it really works you out.

I'm a Junior in Engineering Physics so I know well what you are talking about. I generaly just make time, but if you cannot bring yourself to do so, I would just alot an hour 3 days a week and fitting a schedule around that.

If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done.

Three day split: 1) Chest/back 2) Shoulders/Bis 3) Legs/Tris

Stick to basic compound movements such as bench press( barbell or dumbbell), shoulder presses, chins and/or deadlifts, BB rows, curls, squats and skull crushers with low volume. Avoid isolation movements.

Remember to eat enough , particularly of protein, so you build or maintain mass you worked so hard to get. If you do not eat enough, you could lose mass no matter what you do in the gym.
