4 Day Split

[knownas]

Currently I am doing the following

Day 1 - Shoulders and Triceps
Day 2 - Chest and Biceps
Day 3 - Back, Legs, and Abs
Day 4- Rest

I'm thinking of changing it to

Day 1 - Back, Legs, and Abs
Day 2 - Shoulders and Triceps
Day 3 - Chest and Biceps
Day 4 - Rest

I've also thought about having chest and triceps go together, and then have biceps and back go together. Your thoughts? Thanks

Eh I don't know. I guess I just have a mental block with only working out three days a week.

Much better set up.

He's focused on the big 4, some assistance & bodybuilding fluff.

I did the conventional BB split until I started training using a similar approach to the above and both size and strength have improved.

I wouldn't train legs and back on same day because they are large muscle groups.

I like to do pull/push/legs. If you want 4 day split, I would train back+bis, chest+tris, quads, shoulders+calves. You can fit abs every 2 workouts or on the day you have the lowest volume.

if you can do legs and baxk at same day, it cant be intense enough.

I like to do

Day1 Chest & Triceps
Day2 Back & Biceps
Day3 Legs
Day4 Shoulders & Traps
Repeat
I take rest days when and where I need them and do Abs and cardio at the end of the workout or on rest days depending on how I feel.
