Hey everyone im now really starting starting to get into weight lifting and i need help with a routine...i was basically going to to it in a 4-day split when i lift weights like this below
MONDAY- Back and Biceps TUESDAY- Legs WEDNESDAY- *REST* THURSDAY- Chest and Triceps FRIDAY- Abs SATURDAY- *REST* SUNDAY- *REST* but my problem is that i need specific excerises to do for a specific group like exercise- reps- % of max - and things like that i also think it should be on an 8-10 week routine so if anyone knows any routines that could help me, that would be very helpful! NOTE: i also take creatine and whey protein i take creatine when i first wake up (on empty stomach) and then i take the whey protein along wiht creatine after i workout is that good? THANKS, ''I2HOT2TOUCH'' |

I personally do a routine kinda like that. Mine could be a bit more effective by making a legs only day, but I know myself and won't do that so I do what I can.
First your abs recover quickly, so doing them with your other workouts won't hurt. I start every workout with about 30-40 weighted decline situps. (I am sure there is a cool name for them, but I don't know it) Second make sure that you are doing compound lifts and not just isolation movements as the compound lifts will help your core as well as your "focused" muscle group. My W/O Mon- Back/Biceps (Includes Pullups and Chinups) Tue- Off Wed - Chest/Tricep (Includes Dips and Barbell Bench) Thur - Offf Fri - Legs/Shoulders (Includes Military Press, Squats and Lunges) I put the lifts in ( ) that have a tendency (sp?) to work your core as well. GL with the new routine. |
