here is a workout routine i found on the internet. it is supposed to be geared towards hypertrophy. i was just wondering if its any good or not. i've never really trained with this kind of set and rep scheme before. i usually go with more of a power routine with higher sets and lower reps.


Day 1:



  • Barbell Curls: 2 sets, 6-8 reps

    Incline DB Bench Press: 2 sets, 6-8 reps

    Preacher Machine: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)

    Chest Fly Machine: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)

    Seated Cable Row: 3 sets, 12 reps

    Parallel Grip Bench Press Machine: 3 sets, 12 reps

    Abs: 3 sets
    Cardio: 15 min
Day 2:





  • Leg Extension: 2 sets 6-8 reps

    Foot Up Squats (Smith Machine): 2 sets 6-8 reps

    Leg Press: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)

    Leg Curls: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)

    Romanian Deadlifts (wide grip): 3 sets 12 reps

    Calves: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)
    Cardio: 15 min
Day 3:





  • Overhead DB Press: 3 sets, 6-8 reps

    Side Raises: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)
    Cycle Sprints, 15 minutes: 1:30 slow (80RPM), 0:30 all out (150RPM) and repeat
Day 4:





  • Skull Crushers: 2 sets, 6-8 reps

    Wide Grip Front Pulldowns: 2 sets, 6-8 reps

    Triceps Pressdowns: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)

    Hammer Row Machine: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)

    Hammer Bench Press: 3 sets, 12 reps

    One Arm DB Curls: 3 sets, 12 reps

    Abs: 3 sets
    Cardio: 15 min



Day 5:





  • Dumbbell Deadlifts: 2 sets, 6-8 reps

    Squats (wide stance (PL style i guess)): 2 sets, 6-8 reps

    Leg Curls (upright): 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)

    Leg Extension: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)

    Front Squats: 3 sets, 12 reps

    Calves: 3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)
    Cardio: 15 min


    i'm also wondering what exactly are "3 sets of triple drops (6,6,6)". the 2 rest days are going to be placed whenever i can fit them.

    thanks in advance


    EDIT: btw, this was copy & pasted, so it looks kinda weird and spaced out, sorry.
 
Find yourself a new routine; do a search on this website, you will find a ton of great ones.
 
if you don't mind me asking, whats wrong with it?
 
M-Bis/Chest/Some back

T-Quads/Hams/back-again/calves

W-Shoulders

Th-Tris/Bis-again

F- Quads-again/Hams-again

Its just a goofy split. I dont understand the proirity given to certain muscle groups. Five straight days of training isnt optimal, especially if youre a begginer.
 
i'm not a beginner, i've been training for probably 3 or 4 years now. and i did the day 1 workout yesterday, and i didn't find it all that great. my bi's felt like they got all the work and nothing else was really worked hard.
 
by the way, heres the link to the website i got it from in case anyone is interested in it for some reason. its geared toward football and has different phases throughout the year 9strength, hypertrophy, recovery, etc.)
