I enjoy this routine because of my job. I'm a concrete labourer. I build basements. And the job it's self is sometimes a workout. Carrying 90 pound concrete forms all day on a randomly selected day, isnt ideal if I'm doing a full body routine. also for example if I shovel ALL day friday, and did a hell of a lower back workout. I either won't work out or I'll just choose a work out, that my work won't effect. Some times i won't be able to get all the work outs in one week, so maybe I have to fit In one on Sunday.
I'm still making gains and steadily increasing weight on each exercise. My job is extremely physically demanding. So an upper and lower simply just doesnt work. People on other message boards simply said "yeah well you should still squat even if you had a rough day at work" this lead to me stalling and eventually losing gains.
Years ago a man who was working with us tried telling me this. He basically said if you just carried 200 forms that weigh 100 to 90 pounds each why would you go home and squat, dead lift, and do shoulder presses? Why not go home and hit chest then take the next day off when it comes to working out. I should have listened to him and now I am. Basically saying target a specific set of muscles that aren't hit that day at work. How ever the tards at bb.com couldn't grasp this because they either work desk jobs, are titty babies still living at home, or in college paid for by their parents.
With my job I know I'll never be able to follow a workout routine to a T, except in the three winter months we get a year here in Illinois. So I mean what are your thoughts on this?
