I've been doing
Day 1: Chest/Back Width/Delts/Back Thickness/Tris
Day 2: Bis/Calves/Forearms
Day 3: Rest
Day 4: Quads/Hams/Abs
Day 5: Rest
REPEAT

I end up with at least 4, usually 5, sessions per week. I'm sure I could get away with less, but I absolutely love going to the gym, and would probably physically assault students w/o the proper outlet to vent my frustration. I end up being an extremely patient teacher

The above split is my tweak to DC training. I only do one exercise per bodypart each workout, but hit everything 3 times using different exercised over the course of 15 days. Me gusta mucho

3 on 1 off. Push-Legs-Pull-Rest repeat.


In every moment YOU choose the experience you are having. The life you are living right now is the culmination of the choices you have made up to now. If you are not experiencing the life you want, simply make different choices.

DC like program. Rotate between 2 on 1 off and 1 on 1 off. Basically either 4 or 5 days ew, not including cardio sessions.


No one can be a great thinker who does not recognize that as a thinker it is his first duty to follow his intellect to whatever conclusions it may lead. Truth gains more even by the errors of one who, with due study, and preparation, thinks for himself, than by the true opinions of those who only hold them because they do not suffer themselves to think.

Do you pay per time for your workouts? Why not get a monthly membership instead (if you dont have it already).


Im in the gym 5days a week, other than that can't really say my workouts (Im training with a clown right now).

Oh, I didn't mean I can't afford moneywise, I'm friends with owner and have 24/7 access and most of the time I'm the only one in the gym, kind of nice. But I'm too busy/tired to workout more often.
