Thread: If your still worn, should you W/O?

You should post your routine for these guys to critique. They are real helpful. And what exactly do you mean by worn? A lot of these guys recommend if you train one muscle group hard once a week to ensure full recovery, for some people twice a week. My body gets best results from training each group twice a week. I definetly dont lift with a muscle that feels like its going to lag because I just trained it say two days ago.

^Typ-O's above

Well Today my routine was:

Dumbell bench press 6x75's x2
Decline dumbell bench 6x65's x2
Incline dumbell bench 6x60's x2

L laterals 10x35'sx2
bow ties 6x105x2
alternating upright rows 8x50(?)x2
dumbell shrugs 85's

dumbell bench flys 14x35'sx2-3
standing flys 8x35'sx3

close grip tri ext. w/curl bar 65x8x2
french presses, dont remember weight
pulldowns on a lat machine standing up w/100(?)

and prob. one or two exercise i cant remember.

i got all this done in a little over an hour and 1/2

Ideas?

And by worn i mean sore pecs, and lats hurt.

You do all of this every other day?!? Ah, if so then yes you are over training and no I wouldn't lift when I was that sore. Split that crap into specific body parts and do a three day split.

you dont do any kind of split???

That's pretty much what I did until I came here (everything in one day, every other day) Now I have a 3 day split

well i used to do eveery thing in one day and 5 days a week lol its good i now have 4 day split and i did dead lifts today they are well good fun hard work but fun i think

i do each muscle groupo once a week as per my split and when i do i train very hard to ensure a proper work out as there is 6 days for the muscle to recover if you think about it

I sometimes continue to work the muscle even if it's sore. However, only you can really be the judge. Do whatever your intuition tells you.

When i go, as you can see i work lots of muscle groups. I obvioulsy need to change this. If you have any pointers on a better routine i would love to hear it.

I suggest lowering your workout length to 60 minutes of lifting. Catabolic hormone levels begin to surge at this point, and anabolic hormone levels start to dive.

What days are you free to workout? How many days per week do you prefer to workout?

No leg or back work?

what r bow ties?

Every now and then it may be good to push it. But only for a day or two. If you continue this for long, your CNS will not recover and it will definately lead to overtraining and it will be counterproductive.
