B. Most trainee's don't rest between reps but sets - 90-120sec is fine between sets. |

| | Yeah you're over training like hell. Spread that over 6-7 days. I like your split however. Mines actually looks quite like yours...we do it old school: http://www.realfitnessworld.com/Routines.htm |

| | | 1) since you're starting off, do a full body workout 3 days a week. Since your body is not used to lifting weights, and you're most likely out of shape, you will get some fast results, as long so work out properly.
When you get more strength start splitting it up, changing it from a full body workout3 days a week, to 4-5 days a week, and say:
Monday
-arms
-chest
-back
Tuesday
-legs
-abs
Thats just a simple example though....
I wait 2-3 min.. you have to make sure your heart rate doesn't slow down, or you will loose your pump, and will become tired faster. |  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
