changing my routine

RockSolid · 10-30-2006, 09:55 AM

I had a routine for awhile improved greatly and have since been walking around the gym aimlessly making minimal gains so here is my idea...my goal is strength and mass of course I will be eating better than I have and shooting for 1.5g protein/pound...I will be doing some ab and neck excercises at my convenience.....Would running sprints hinder my gains if done once a week on saturday?

Sprinting one day a week won't hinder your gains.

On another note, you do know that benching hits the delts too, right? So you're hitting the delts 4 days a week.

Monday

Keeping reps/sets the same, does it look better?

Your workouts are conflicting some what, if your going to be hitting a muscle hard one day, you dont really want to be working it the day after unless its just as a stabilizer.
