4-Day Splits vs Once a week..
I notice alot of advanced training is done in 3-4 day split routines.
The thing that confuses me is the amount of training on each body
part. I'm thinking of doing a 4 day split of the following:
day 1-legs | day2 - back/bi's | day 3 - chest/tri's
day 4-shoulders traps | day 5 - off | day 6 - legs - day 7 off
So as I said, I'm confused in the amount of training on each exercise.
I've seen advanced programs that suggest only 2 chest exercises and
3 back exercises. Is this enough? Of course I would do 4 sets, each
to failure. But is 2-3 exercises for each body part enough? Do advanced
body builders work this way? My goal is gain 5 pounds and be ripped.
Is this a solid routine or should I stick to one body part a day for once
a week. Normally I would train this way do about four exercises for
each body part only once a week:
monday - chest, tues-back, wed-abs, thur-shoulders, fri-arms.
Any help would be great.
