[jlank]

Hey everyone, this is my first post..

Anyways, I just got a new job and the hours are terrible. The only days im gonna be able to hit the gym are Mon, wends and friday and thats pushing it. I used to go 4-5 days a week and hit just diff body parts, right now im doing this routine

mon-back,bi's
weds-legs, delts
friday-chest, tri's

I am doing at least 4 diff exercises for each body part and 4 sets of each exercise, im currently on no gear and im wondering if im gonna over train or this is a good routine. But im just looking for a little help here on a new one, if anyone has any ideas, please shoot the shit and lemme know whatcha think.. how many sets, what exercises, anything will help.

Thanks bros.

well i dont really understand why could only get in 3 days per week, hours, gym closes early, hard labor, whatever the case may be, i might have an idea.

Mon
Chest, Bi's,calves

Wed
Back, shoulders, tri's

Fri,
Legs, abs

This is just an example, wed. would really suck cause you are hitting 3 bodyparts, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

also im sure someone maybe phil, will reccomend the HIT training style, which i believe only requres you to lift 3 days per week. 1 heavy set per body part, 3 exercises per bodypart. so like maybe a heavy set, a moderate set, and a lighter set. ahh screw it, ill let osmeone else explain it. LOL

Later,
Todd

As lomg as you get 7-8 hours of sleep a night keep your protien intake high, 45 min to an hour is all ya need in the gym.

I suggest trying out DoggCrapps training:

Mon: Chest, Shoulders, Triceps, back width, back thickness

Wed: Biceps, forearms, calves, hams, quads

Thur: Repeat Monday's parts with different lifts.

You'd have to read up on it as it requires a LOT more than what I've typed. Drop me a PM and I can send you notes that I have taken from the hundres of threads I have read by DC.

Well i am currently 5"8 around 180+ pounds, i maintain around 8-10% bodyfat. I have been liftin since i was 17 and i am now 22 years old. Around 6-8 months ago i messed up my rotater in my shoulder and had to stop liftin and it was in middle of my first cycle. I lost alot of my muscle and gained alot of fat. I lost all hope and motivation and stopped liftin period. I am now starting to get motivated again and want to train harder than i ever have before and get back on track and start a new cycle here in the future.
The new job i got is 5 days a week and its 12 hours a day, so i dont have the time to hit the gym on those days. I currently just have those 3 days to work out. An example of my current routine is this: back/bi's

3 sets of 10 pullups for warmup.
Lat pull downs 3sets, 10 8 8
seatedcable row 2 sets, 10 8
deadlifts 3sets 10

hammer curls
ez bar curls
incline dumbell curl
concen curls

* thats basically my back/bi's routine, the other days are basically the same but with diff body parts of course.
