Introduction:
This is my first workout log here on AM. I have run several cycle logs which contained my workouts, but this will be my first log concentrating on my workout routines. If you are familiar with my training you will realize that I have typically followed a fairly high volume training program for the past 7 years. I have had brief periods of low volume training, but this will be my first experience with a total HIT program. The program I am about to lay out is one that I have created for myself based on my years of training experience with my body and individual muscle groups. I hope many of you will take an interest in my routine and follow along as I HIT the iron hard to make maximal muscular gains.
Training Schedule:
Day 1: Chest, Biceps, Abs, Calves
Day 2: Back
Day 3: Shoulders, Triceps, Abs
Day 4: Legs, Calves
Day 5: OFF
(REPEAT)
My diet will be a carb cycling diet with my heaviest carbohydrate intake on Leg and Back days with a low to moderate carb intake on all other days. I keep my fat intake moderate (80-110 grams including 15-30g Fish Oil) with lower fat intake on days my carbohydrates are higher, inversely proportionate to the increase in carbohydrates.
My training will be similar to DC style training, but I will stick to a more typical bodybuilding muscle group split, i.e. 1 large / 1 large and 1 small bodypart per workout. I will also incorporate static stretching into each workout. My HIT program will go from August 16, 2010 to October 3rd, 2010, followed by a "cruise phase" of higher volume and less intensity workouts for 1-2 weeks while accessing my physique and planning out the next phase of my training according to my progress.
I hope you will follow along and help keep me motivated and on task throughout my training program! Look out for personal records!
