: When i went off to college some 8 months ago i started training now i am going to be home for the summer and i want to put on allot more mass, but i need some help with my routine this is the routine schedule i used to get a base down. .

: tuesday-shoulders and back, squats

: thursday-chest and arms

: saturday-shoulders and arms, squats

: sunday-chest and arms

: I think this too much for me now it was okay when i started training, but now i am lifting allot more wieght. Feel free to leave a sample routine that would suit me. Also my eating habits are good i supplement 100 grams of whey protein a day to my regular 4 meals a day.


Jack your protien up to 1-2 grams per pound of body weight.

Also this two workout split is too frequent. You are giving your body a chance to re-cover form the workouts.

Try something like this:

A: Chest, Shoulders, Triceps
B: Back, Biseps and Traps
C: Thighs and Hams
D: Off

Repeat, the day after I do squats I'm totally fried and need a break, this 3 day split will give your body time to recover but is frequent enough to cause a gain in lean mass.

Revampt your routine in a couple of months for variety.

You could try:

A: Chest and Back
B: Thighs and Hams
C: Arms
D: Off

repeat.

remember variety is key, but it prob. would be best to stick with heavier Freeweight basic movements like, squat, bench, military press, chins, bent rows etc.

Good luck
