So after alot of rearch online and magazines i finally came across this workout program that is a 6 day split and is designed for mass building, something a bodybuilder would want. These workouts will be long so i think i will alternate which ones i do each day, taking out a couple here and there and switching them in on the next day so i dont stay in the gym for hours. But This is it, I will be posting up my results and progress of what i lifted choosing one day each week to post up once i start actually lifting. So keep posted on my blog, follow me, and see where this goes! Also will give advice and take any when offered!

ReplyDeletePS The first paragraph is a bit hard to read, due to the colours.
Great routine, i myself do similar sets etc.. you deserve great credit..keep it up
ReplyDeleteThanks guys and yeah i fixed the text haha
ReplyDeletelol I'm gonna do ten pushups 2night
ReplyDeleteya that should just about do it
I just work out 3 or 4 days a week & rest in between. Your muscles need some time to heal & regenerate man.
ReplyDeleteYeah, i take one day off...plus im using supplements so the recovery time i need will be alot shorter than average
ReplyDeleteSeemslike a pretty intense regiment!
ReplyDeleteYEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
ReplyDeleteI have to renew my gym card and lift some iron summer is comming and one should look good on the beach
ReplyDeletepff that's quite a workout, would need something like that right now cos of the huge hangover T_T
ReplyDeleteA lot of people say an extensive workout is unnecessary but I disagree. It's hard to work out your entire body if you do it only 3 days a week.
ReplyDeleteYeah alot of people do a 3 day split, thats what i just did and im stepping up to a near full week workout, i started to plateau and Im aiming to be a body builder, not just get in shape.
ReplyDeletePuttin in work buddy!
ReplyDeleteI do some sort of exorcise nearly everyday, no formal routine just different basic things like squats push ups curl ups ect. I just want to be in shape. Good luck bulking up.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing a similar routine. I follow an advanced workout routine created by Scooby1961. I bet you know him and his videos. However, I do modify this a little bit - mostly to focus on biceps and burning fat - tricky to combine at the same time.
ReplyDeleteYeah i heard of him and seen some of his stuff, this workout is a near copy to what Arnold's was during his prime...I figured if it worked for the champ and golden man of body building it'll sure work for me!
ReplyDeleteGoodluck put in the hard work will pay off.
ReplyDeleteGetting rid of that stubborn belly fat isn't particularly easy. After trying literally everything, the only thing that worked for me was:
