I split biceps with chest and triceps with back, cause a chest workout gives your tri's a going over anyway.
I not up to scratch on all the names, but im sure they called them military presses when we train, basically sitting in a chair (machine) where you load plates either side, pushing forward, chair is upright/inclided that sound like a military press?
Sounds like a plate loaded chest press. Unless your pushing up then it'd be a shoulder press, which is similar to military press. (Standing, feet together as I learnt today!)
Exactly, so why risk overtraining and working that muscle group twice?
Fair enough if those two workouts are a few days apart
and never work a muscle group more than once a week
Military press to me is standing and pressing above the head with an Olympic bar with various weight, nothing else!
There is lots of arguements to each method and to be honest I guess it depends on the person. I do prefer your split over ConTRo13R though.
Military Press: No bending of the knees at all
Push Press: Can use leg drive to push the bar up but no bending of the knees to get under the bar.
Jerk: Leg drive and rebend to get under the bar
Change your grip or better still change to dumbbell curls. I haven't done barbell curls for years simply because they cause me excruciating pain in my forearms.Think I've developed quite bad tendonitis in my right arm due to weights, especially barbell curls, been a while since I've had a week off. Think it could be due now
