    Day 1: biceps and shoulders and abs
    Day 2: legs
    Day 3: rest
    Day 4: triceps and chest
    Day 5: back (lats, lower back
    Day 6: rest

    And then i repeat. This 2 day on 1 day off routine is signficantly better than my previous 3 days on 1 day off routine.

    I cut down on my cardio during work outs to instead do cardio first thing in the morning.

    I also take regular walks. Both were implemented to prevent catabolism of muscle.

    Ok here goes:


    MONDAYS: Pecs and Shoulders/Delts- I do 3-4 sets of 10-20 reps of 3 different excercises each body part. For Example- I will do 3-4 sets of 10-15 shoulder shrugs, 3-4 sets of 10-12 shoulder presses, 3-4 sets of 10-12 lateral raises.
    Then 3-4 sets of 10-12 bench press, 3-4 sets of 10-12 pec flys', 3-4 sets of 10-12 chest presses.
    Then 30-40 minutes of cardio.

    TUESDAYS: Biceps and triceps- same thing as monday- 3-4 sets of 10-20 reps. Everything from bicep curls, to tricep extensions, dips. Focusing on PRESSING motions.

    WEDNESDAYS: AB work- crunches, leg lifts, knee to elbow raises, etc. I do 25 reps, 3-4 sets but on abs I try to go up on sets every 2 weeks.
    Then 30-40 minutes of cardio.

    THURSDAYS: Legs- Quads, hamstrings, calves. 15 reps, 3 sets. Leg presses, squats, calf raises, leg curls, seated leg presses, lunges, etc.

    FRIDAYS: All out strength and conditioning day- focusing on PULLING motions. I hit EVERYTHING on fridays- 2-3 sets of 8-10 reps including triceps, shoulders, biceps, back, chest.

    SATURDAYS: AB work Then 30-40 minutes of cardio.



    I don't have set routine of specific excercises because I switch it up every week. For example- I try not to do pec flys' EVERY monday, or Hack Squats EVERY thursday, I switch it up and do something else.

    500 push ups including knuckled push ups 4 days a week, 100 pull ups 3 days a week, and I do an exercise with dumbbells that's includes curls shoulders and back in one set. My trainer told me to stay away from the heavy weight because it makes the reflexes slow
