WORKOUTS

[elings]

HEY GUYS I WAS JUST CURIOUS HOW LONG YOUR WORKOUTS LAST AND HOW MANY BODY PARTS YOU TRAIN EACH DAY.

 

[nate63225]

I guess I will be the first to hit back at this one. I do things a little differently than most would suggest. When cycling I workout daily, 5 days a week for about an hour a day. My areas look something like this:

Mon - Chest, Delts, Abs
Tuesday - Back (all muscles)
Wed- Legs (calves, hams and quads), Abs
Thur- Arms (bi's, tri's and forearms)
Fri- I go back to my chest.
Come mon I start with my back. Keeps my body guessing and it works great for me.

When off cycle, my recovery is a lot lower so I only do three days a week for about an hour and a half a day. My areas look like this:

Mon- Chest, Delts, Abs, Calves
Wed- Back, Hams
Fri- Arms, Quads

I have always hated working out my lower body but I found that by splitting it up throughout the week I don't seem to dislike it nearly as bad. Hope this is what you were asking.

Depending on how busy the gym is I usually train for about 75 minutes. On a slow day in the gym about 60 minutes and on a packed day 90 minutes. I train 3 days a week alternating between back/hams/bis and chest/delts/tris/quads.

I have incorporated training and frequency ideas from both Dante and Phil into my training and added some of my own to suit me and my own personal goals.

 

[jstforme]

usually 35 minutes, 45 if someone is daydreaming on the bench again. i used to train one body part per day, now i do 2. both took same ammount of time to workout but i do less sets now and am getting a lot more strength

 

[bigcity]

Dc Training, about 1 hour 15 mins and 3 muscle groups per day

 

[rAJJIN]

About an hour here.
Normaly one main bodypart sometimes two.
Two days on one day off unless I feel sore and need more.

 

[bigheinz]

No more than 40 minutes 2 bodyparts per workout 3 times a week some times 4 times write now, i change a little the frequency and reps trying to bring more work and congestion to my week parts.

What up jstforme, good to see ya over here...If you were doing chest which other bodypart are you working too?...A long time ago I used to do chest and back in one session and it was too tiering and couldn't get stronger or really grow much...now I'll hit something smaller like bi's or tri's...I actually like hitting bi's on chest day and tri's on back day just because I feel to week on either one if I do the tri's on chest day etc.

 

[Dave_19]

2-3 groups per day, and any where from 90-120mins.

I split everything into two separate workouts, like:
Mon:
Bench Press
Dips & Pushdowns
Pullups, Rack Deads, Cable Rows
BB Curls & Cable Curls

Tue:
Squats
Leg Curls & Stiff-leg Deads
Seated and Standing Calfs
Standing OH Press & Side Laterals

Wed:
40 min Cardio & Abs

Repeat (I do mix around some of these with different exercises on the other days)

Workouts never last over 45 minutes, including stretching.

If you can't get it done with in an hour or less, then your just doing a marathon.

i do almost exactly like nate's on cycle wo. but i go two on and one off. cause i dont like taking more then one day off at a time. but if your worried about what days of the week you are working out then nate's is what i would do.
also my off cycle is the exact same just less intense. might be a little overtraining for some but if you keep the intensity down it will be ok.
