There are so many different routines out there its ridiculous. There are some basic principals to understand, which hopefully you already know, but the rest is just preference and what works for you. Personally I like to split up my chest and shoulders. Get a partner, always go to failure, and sometimes some forced reps are good too. If you want massive shoulders I would try going a little heavier than what you outlined. Try going a little heavier in biceps too. Throw in some cheat curls to get those extra muscle fibers working, see how those feel. If you try those becareful not to exaggerate your movements, don't want to injure yourself. There is so much you can do. Research, experiment, and see what works for you. IP: Logged |

This is a bodysplit that I like. I always like to combine a big muscle with a small muscle. Mon = Chest/bi/forearms/calves You'll see that I suggest doing calves and abs twice per week - this is usually the common consensus because of the type of muscle tissue in the calves and abs. You should spend 45-60 mins on a large muscle group and do 8-10 sets. For smaller muscles (bi/tri/calves/abs) do 6-8 sets, and for traps and f/arms I would only do 3 or 4 sets. Remember - you grow when you are not in the gym. You say you can't eat properly during school. Why not take a container full of protein shake to school and drink it at breaks. Or, if you can't afford shakes, drink a few pints of skimmed milk with some egg whites a couple of times a day (in between meals). IP: Logged |

looks pretty good to me, again there are 1000 variations you can do....3 days a week training allows for plenty of rest time, and rest=growth....when i am bulking & trying to put on size i will keep the reps in most of my sets between 6-8, and will allow for longer rest time between sets....

DO not be scared to even dip down into the 4 rep range when mass is what you seek. Go no higher than 8 but make sure you are properly streched out and warmed up before moving heavy weight. IP: Logged |

Do you guys think that the max OT 12 week program would be better for packing on size and strength than the routine I posted up above IP: Logged |
