Separation of shoulders/back and arms workouts
Ever since I've started working out (roughly 8 months ago), I've been doing complete upper body in one workout, then complete lower body in another workout.
I want to separate my upper body workouts into two different workouts; hit arms one day then hit shoulders and back the next day. The only problem is I'm unfamiliar with what specific exercises train what part. I'd have a hard time finding enough exercises for arms (or shoulders/back) to feel like I've done a complete workout; I feel as though if I were to separate the two right now, I'd have workouts of maybe half an hour or 45 minutes. Something that would be extremely helpful aside from advice would be a site that shows pictures of exercises depicting what type of exercises hit what parts. And another thing; I'm not very good at naming/differentiating the different types of freeweights, like dumbbells, barbells, etc. |

your upper body is composed of more than arms, shoulders and back
the basic BB'er view of upper body is as follows, back chest traps shoulders arms i think that should be the correct size order too, largest to smallest. if you want to keep an upper/lower type split you can do push/pull/legs. push=chest, shoulders(front, side), tri's pull=back, traps, bi's, rear delts legs=legs, lol a good site for exercises is this site |
