    Workout routines for a week

    I've heard alot about only doing 4-6 sets per body part per week and that most only work one or two bodyparts per day. That sure doesn't seem like much time in the gym.

    I am curious, what does everyones weekly schedule look like as far as workout are concerned. I understand this varies from week to week, so list what you did last week

    What body part, the exercies, sets and reps
    Striving everyday to getting Bigger, Better, and Better Looking. The later is a struggle.

    Well, one thing you'll learn over time is that muscles grow outside of the gym not in so "get in, get out" should only be around 1 hour +/-.

    For me, i work around 9 to 11 sets for large muscle groups and around 6 for small. I've been doing one large muscle groups per day and 2 small together per day but I use to groupe a large and a small. Both ways are good.
    Cool

    I work with weights on a bulking program 4 times a week.
    Mon: Legs and calves around 13 sets
    Wednesday: Chest and Tris: Chest 12 sets, Tris 9 sets
    Friday: Shoulders: 12 sets
    Sunday: Back and Bis: Back: 12 sets, Bis 8 sets

    This is an intense routine for me, i usually do less sets. I have been training hard for about 3 years now and need to put on 10lbs of LBM for my next comp. in 2003

    I am doing that crazy shoulder smackdown for 3 weeks to shock the hell out of them. I usually cant type for a day afterwards. I love it.

    I have used it to prepare for my last comp. i needed to pump my shoulders up quite a bit from April's show to June's show, and it did it. I am continuing to use the program because i love it so much. The workout is posted in my journal "11 monthes to mega muscle". Check it out and let me know how it goes.

    I foster the same belief as Scotty, that muscles grow outside the gym.I'm on a pretty abbreviated schedule right now.
    Day 1:Back Squats
    Day 2:Rest
    Day 3:Power Cleans
    Day 4:Bench Presses
    Day 5:Rest
    I do some assistance work for my core muscles(abs,obliques, and lumbars) and that's about it.I'm pretty much trying to focus on the big three for now.
