Monday - Legs (weak point)
I always use pyramid to heavy wt./ low rep then drop sets to burn out on all my lifts.
Squats - 5-8 sets
Rom. Deads - 5-8
Leg Press - 5-8 with 15 reps calf raise after set.
Leg Ext. - 5-8 (variation of hammer strength/ machine)
Leg Curl 5-8 (variation of lying/standing)
Donkey Calf raises - 6-8
Seated Calf raise - 6-8
Tuesday - Shoulders (pyramid to heavy wt. low rep drop to lt. weight hi rep. )
Dumbell press - 5-7 (variation of standing/sitting my thought is standing engages more core than does sitting)
Reverse incline db lateral raise 5-7 (variation of reverse pec/ seated bent over lateral raise of similar movement)
Machine press front/ behind the head - 5-7
Standing lateral db raise - 4-6
Upright rows - 4-6
One arm side cable lateral 4-6
Barbell shrugs - 4-6
Db shrugs - 4-6
Wednesday - Arms (same format as above)
Incline skull crushers ez bar - 5-7
Ez bar curls - 5-7
Standing overhead db ext. - 5-7
Standing db curls - 5-7
Preacher curls - 5-7
Rope pull downs (cable machine) - 5-7
21's with ez bar - 3-4
Close grip bb press - 4-6
Thursday - Chest/ back (same format as above)
Bench press - 5-7
Cable rows - 5-7
Incline bench - 4-6 (db for variation)
Bent over bb row - 4-6 (db for variation)
Incline db fly - 4-6 (pec deck or cable fly for variation)
Lat pull down - 4-6
Hammer strength (incl. iso.) - 4-6
This is the foundation of my routine and typically the order I use, I always make sure my main lifts go first and I do switch the order up periodically. I typically lift heavy two wks. Then go light one wk. My target time in the gym is around an hour for lifting, not counting warm up/ stretching and cool down.
Thoughts or variations?
