What musle groups do you work together

[brad_crete]

I keep hearing different things from people at the gym. I just want to Know what musle groups you should work together. Thanks guys

 

[JustinM]

its all opinion

i like to work opposites..chest/back bis/tris....shoulders/legs sometimes

most of the time i do 1 muscle per day

but when i cut i do push//pull

 

[The Almighty]

Industry standard is:
Legs/Abs
Chest/Tris
Back/Bis
Shoulders/Abs

My current split is Chest/calves, Delts/Triceps,Back/Biceps, Thighs on a 4 day a week routine..

I think one of the most underrated routines (as far as pairing up bodyparts) is delts/traps. Most people work traps with back but I would much rather hit them with delts. Try it sometime. Shoulder day has become my favorite day in the gym since I started doing this over a year ago and the pumps are phenomenal.

i have just switched from one body part per work out to this, in hopes of getting in more workouts/week and at the same time get lots of rest. a little different, but no group is ever sore from the previous days workout so it's been working well so far.

day 1: back/arms
day 2: legs/abs
day 3: -rest-
day 4: chest/shoulders
day 5: -rest-
day 6: repeat

i like it cause i rest before and after chest, which is one spot i am looking to increase the most. i do 7 sets of tri's on day 1, and 3 sets on day 4 as well.

I can't believe anyone can do a Shoulder blow out routine and still work Chest. I'm lucky to be able to crawl down and get back up off the floor to work Abs at the end of my Shoulder day.

 

[Maximum Intensity]

Currently been working on the following -- subject to change every 4 - 6 weeks:

Day 1 -- Quads
Days 2 -- Shoulders/Traps/Calves
Day 3 -- Back
Day 4 -- Chest/Hams
Day 5 -- Bi's/Tri's/calves
Day 6 -- Off
Day 7 -- Off

Same here. I don't understand working chest/shoulders together either. But to each his own.

Chest/biceps
legs
rest
shoulder/triceps
back/traps
rest
rest

Repeat

 

[Stubby2]

This works for me:

Day 1: Chest And Back
Day 2: Legs + ABS
Day 3: Rest
Day 4: Shoulders + Biceps
Day 5: Triceps + ABS
Day 6 and 7: rest

Seems to work for me... never any problems with this... seen some big changes over the last month. Used to train every muscle every other day and didnt notice much change.

I do 5 sets, 6 reps (last set to exhaustion)

My week looks like this and its working great for me

Mon: Chest , Triceps, Shoulders
Tue: Back, Biceps
Wed: Legs, Abs
Thu: Chest, Triceps, Shoulders
Fri: Back, Biceps, (whole arm not triceps)
Sat: Legs, Abs
Sun: Rest

Good Luck

 

[goahead]

front/side-delt + trap + abs
pec + quads
calves + wrist + abs
upperback/lats + rdelt
bi + tri + wrist
lowerback + hamstrings + calves + abs
REPEAT

Occaisionally if I feel sore I throw in a rest day after
pec + quads day or upperback/lats day,
(major muscle groups)
