My New Training Split

[Beowulf]

Check it out. Here is my new training split. I'm gonna train
Day 1: Horizontal Push/Pull#1
Day 2: Legs #1
Day 3: Rest
Day 4: Vertical Push/Pull #1
Day 5: Rest
Day 6: Horizontal Push/Pull #2
Day 7: Legs #2
Day 8: Rest
Day 9: Vertical Push/Pull #2
Day 10: Rest

I'm gonna train short of failure, increasing weight or reps each workout. This is going to allow me to work on my arms more than ever before, as I'll be hitting them 3 times in 10 days

Feedback is welcome. I am aware of the dangers of overtraining, and will start off with less volume than the layout currently calls for.

hmm interesting .. i like it a lot from what i see .. although i went through it kinda quickly .. but i love the theory behind it and i think you'll love it too

actually now that i look back i would cut it back to just one exercise per body part per work out .. you'll overtrain doing that much volume (6 sets) at that frequency

 

[punta]

I follow the same type of training style. I agree with Glen though lower the frequency.

 

[Beowulf]

I hear you guys on the frequency. However, I'm only going to do one intense set per bodybpart. So if I'm doing barbell rows for 6-8 reps I would do
Set 1: 135x8 (easy)
Set 2: 185x8 (still have a couple in the bank)
Set 3: 205x6-8 (a challenge, but not failure)

I don't like to jump right into heavy work. I do a lot better with plenty of warm up time. This way I'll only be pushing it hard for 2-3 sets per bodypart per workout. Plus, I'll be running PGH-T and Oratropin
