Quick 'check my split' thread.

[Jimbo Mahoney]

Hey guys,

I've read Gordy's sticky.

I'm currently cutting (14.9% BF at the mo), but obviously doing weights and I'd like some constructive criticism. I would class myself as a beginner, but have been doing weights casually for a few years. I'm 25 btw.

Currently:

Running everyday - 3.5 miles

Weights split: (all 3 x 8 reps)


Tuesday

Chest / Shoulders / Biceps

Flat Bench Press
Barbell Bicep Curl
Lateral Dumbbell Raise
Incline Dumbbell bench
One arm Dumbbell Hammer
Seated Dumbbell Military Press


Thursday

Legs / Abs

Barbell Squats
Dumbbell Lunges
Calf Raises
Ab workout


Saturday

Back / Triceps

Skull Crushers
Bent Over One Arm Dumbbell Row
Deadlift
Close Grip Bench Press
Chin Ups



I know Gordy's sticky suggested Chest and Triceps on the same day, but the trainers in the gym recommend splitting the Triceps and Chest into different days, which is what I've tried to do.

I'll be aiming to bulk up a bit when I hit ~ 12% BF (or whenever I'm happy with the way I look lean-wise).

Thanks!

That title made me not want to look in here

Oops

no exercises for your hams.are your exercises listed in order that you perform them or just randomly written down?

They are down in the order I perform them, but again, open to suggestions / improvements. I thought the straight-legged Deadlift was doing my hamstrings (amongst other things)?

 

[Jimbo Mahoney]

They do... but you have to put them in your routine for them to work

They are in my routine, albeit on the 'back' day.

I would switch your biceps with your triceps.

OK. Gordy's sticky recommends that, but as I said, the trainers in the gym seemed confused about having chest and tri's on the same day.
