Do These Workouts Seem Balanced to You?
I am setting up a 3 day split to hit each muscle group hard once a week.

I like it overall
Wednesday: Chest + Triceps + Shoulders: ~Bench Press: 2x6 / 2x8 ~Incline Dumbbell Press: 4x8 ~Flat Dumbbell Flyes: 3x10 ~Arnold Dumbbell Shoulder Press: 3x8 ~Alternating Close-Grip Press / Scull Crushers: 3x8 You gotta get some dips in here...I would replace the D.B. flyes with dips and do a few sets of Cable or D.B flyes at the end if you feel like it. I would also be more inclined to go with the skull crushers instead of the C.G bench press because of alll the press work you have already. |
