Bodybuilding question


Guest

Recommended Posts

Okay so I've recently started working more and don't have much time these days.

 

I was doing a six day split

 

Legs/abs

Chest

Back/abs

Rest

Shoulders/abs

Arms

Rest

 

I don't have the time or energy required for that type of routine anymore unfortunately.

 

my question is: Would I be able to maintain my muscle in my non isolated muscles by doing a chest/legs/back routine while putting emphasis on compound movements squats/deadlifts/squats and also doing isolated exercises for those muscles?

I'm not entirely sure how to answer the question so I won't try incase I'm deadly wrong.

 

However I switched up my training when I had less time from 6 days to 3 days and just did 2 body parts per day

 

Now i hit Monday Wednesday Friday and train Chest/Back - Legs/Shoulders and Triceps/Biceps with Abs after each workout and Cardio Before each workout to reach a state of Ketosis

I was considering doing a split like that but it will take away from my main muscles and I work my legs so hard that I can barely walk out of the gym afterwards let alone work another muscle group. I do my deadlifting on back day which is grueling in itself and hammer my chest with db presses, bb presses and flyes.

 

I really don't have the energy to keep going at the end of my routines.

 

Leg extensions 4 sets of 10 full reps and 10 partial reps

Squats 4 warm up sets and 4 working sets

Super set single leg press/full leg press 4 sets of 10 reps per leg/4 sets for 20 reps

Super set triple drop Smith machine squat/standing calf raise 4 sets of 7 per drop/4 sets of 10

 

 

Db bench press 4 sets 8 - 12

Incline bb bench press 3 sets 8 - 12

Leverage decline chest press 3 sets 8 - 12

Incline db flye 3 sets 8 - 12

Pec deck 3 sets 8 - 12

 

Deadlift 4 warm up sets 4 working sets 8 - 12

Wide grip pull ups 4 sets of 8 - 12

Standing T bar row 4 sets of 8 - 12

Close grip pull down 4 sets of 12

Db row 4 sets of 12
