apart from the bit about you not being able to train your upper body only. Cuban bodybuilders only do the top on a two day split due to lack of protein etc.

Definitely work your legs but make sure the upper body routine is sorted first.

Sergio had an awesome physique - like Arnold I think he was advanced for his era.

explore sample slplits. For a natural trainer just settting out i'd say 4 days is ample.

explore sample slplits. For a natural trainer just settting out i'd say 4 days is ample.

I'm in agreement with Cambridge muscle - 4 times per week is ample - tho I would suggest 3 - and id suggest at 1st u dont concentrate on splitting ur bodyparts - I first suggest u do an all over body routine 3 times a week for 3 months or so - I used the super squats routine when I first started - I gained a good solid 8lbs of muscle from it - then I split up my routine - but I was a powerlifter before I started body building.

You can get mor einfo on the super squat routine here: http://davedraper.com/super-squats.html

Remember rest and diet is just as important =- hence the reason I say as a beginnner u train 3 times per week - ur muscles are new 2 this and wont b used 2 getting torn - so 3 days a week is ample.

If u r determined 2 use a split routine from the get go - this is the routine I use - this has taken me several yrs 2 find out what works for me so it may not work 4 u - every 1 is different.

Day 1 Chest - this is a massive area full of compound movements so I dont train a secondary muscle

Day 2 Back\Biceps\calves

Day 3 Rest

Day 4 Quads, glutes and ham strings

Day 5 Shoulders\Triceps

Day 6 Rest

Day 7 Rest

I also throw in cardio a cpl of times a week and my abs get worked every other time I goto the gym. Soemtimes I change the routine so biceps and triceps get worked 2gether etc.

That routine is definately 2 much 4 u at the moment - see what the other guys on this forum think as well - it's obvious guys liek cambridge musle etc r in the know as well.

Hope this helps,

T

yeah, splitting is probs best after a couple of months, although if ur doing 3 days all over then i'd reckon you could train that extra 15 mins or so knocking it up to an hour rather than 45.

As for diet, i think you should get something solid written before you train. Post on here and we'll critique if you like. Give us your stats though.

I'd lay off anything more than creatine and whey for the time being. Waste of money IMHO. I use straight from dairy unflavoured whey 2 times a day with a bit of nesquick, skimmed milk (all together 45g of protein) and some creatine after w/o with a simple carb source eg :tongue:

ineapple juice. Don't drink o/j as it breaks the creatine down.

as said, i'd keep it simple until you know your body well.

chest, tri

back, bi

legs, shoulders.

grip and abs on whatever day you feel.

for power and muscle building theres a method of training called "ultimate training" i was introduced to.

These are the principles : you do 4-6 reps (so choose a weight that u can do at least 4 but no more than 6 reps) and then rest for 2-3 mins. No more than 7-9 sets of reps for each muscle set.

For example,

1. 4-6 reps of flat bench press
2. 4-6 reps of flat bench press
3. 4-6 reps of incline bench press
4. 4-6 reps of incline bench press
5....
6....
7.....

etc. Then thats it. Only train one muscle set for one session.

I have noticed good results my end and ive been doing this for about4 weeks. It focuses you mentally onknowing how many reps ur doing and is good for strength and power as it targets fast twitch fibres in your muscles.

Eat moderate amounts of fat and carbs and high protein for rebuilding the body.

http://www.fatlosstips.com is a good site by some fitness guru, and tells things fairly straight.

Hope that helps! Any questions PM me :smile:

Yeah im into my training. I hope to possibly enter some powerlifting comps in the near future, though i dont think i would ever want to compete at bodybuilding. Too much fake tan for my liking and a bit gay.
My advice would be to keep it simple. Lift big, eat big. End of.
