Legs?

[merckon]

I am looking at mixing up my routine,I have been training like this:
day 1 chest and bis
day 2 quads and hams
rest
day 3 shoulders and tris
day 4 back and traps
I hit calves twice a week
I was thinking of going to a 5 day routine so I can work quada by themselves then training hams on a different day.
I was just curious of what some you are doing????

mondays- 30 minutes cardio, chest, tri
tuesday - off
Wed- 30 minutes cardio back, bi
Thur- off
Fri- 30 minutes cardio shoulders, abs
Saturday- Legs

I also incorporate the swiss ball and bosu ball while working each body part for that day, great for stability and core training

Merck,

I encourage you to split up your legs on different days. You might want to try this:

MONDAY: QUADS
TUESDAY: CHEST AND CALVES
WEDNESDAY: BACK
THURSDAY: HAMSTRINGS AND SHOULDERS
FRIDAY: ARMS

I know personally that Dexter Jackson follows this split, and a lot of pros split up their legs. Analyze your weak points and strong points, and try it out. When I do an ordinary training split (doing DC training right now), I follow something like this.

Just remember to change it up evry so often

Hey CPT,thank you for your input.I am going to do that routine that you have given me starting next week.I was just getting gassed after quads and then having to hams was just cheating my hams.Thanks again Bro and everyoneelse who has contributed!

Hey no problem.

The difference will be night and day when you hit your hams fresh rather than after quads.

Oh hey Merck, calves are trained again with arms on Friday.

[merckon]

I know what you are saying about the hams,I was just spent after quads so my hams are suffering!I usually hit claves 3x a week,thanks bro!Its people like you that makes this a a great board!
