I am new to this forum and I am glad I read this thread. I thought a full body workout had vertical push/pull and horizontal push/pull all in the same day working out 3 days a week? The only thing I thought that would alternate was deadlifting and squatting each session. Does this work better than doing all the horizontal and vertical push/pulls in one session and get faster gains? I have tried doing everything in one session before and it goes over an hour.
What I am thinking of doing is following this fullbody templete you wrote and it sounds like it won't go over an hour. This also makes more sense rather than doing all the upper body vertical/horizontal pulls & pushes in 1 session.
example would be..workout A: lower push, horizontal push, lower pull, horizontal pull, accessory work (I can include pull ups & chin ups for accessory work along with core work & such.) for workout B, it would be opposite like you wrote in your templete..for accessory work I could do push ups & inverted rows along with core work & such)
The question I struggle with is..how many reps & rest for each exercise to keep it under an hour? I know 3 sets most likely for all the exercises. Maybe lower body up to 6-8 reps maybe? or do you recommend everything 10-15 reps with a rest time of 1-2 minutes? Also, the way you have the templete set up, I could maybe do a lower push with horizontal push together without resting? or is that not a good idea?
Make sure you wipe off your face after you blow on it.
The way I figure, if a person won't take a few minutes to browse through the stickies to see if there's anything interesting in there, then they can't be very serious about their training.
