Well on Monday I am starting a journey into the world of full body routines, which hopefully will see me making alot more gains and maybe put a bit more weight on. I have decided that Mondays and Fridays will be heavy days and Wedensday will be light day to make a bit of variation. My main routine will be as follows;
Bench Press
Chin Ups
Dips
Military Press
BO Rows
Squat
Deadlift
I have read that you should have a max of 6 lifts but I didnt want to give up any of the ones above as I think they are too important. There is a lack of arm isolations but I think I have learnt by now that my arms get worked enough doing those compound exercises.....and maybe ill superset some isolations in somewhere.lol. Also, for variation I will change some of the exercises listed slightly, eg bench to decline/incline bench, bo row to seated row etc.
Well hopefully I will have some progress to brag about soon, but for now....

Complete Change
ok, so my legs are getting stronger with the routine im using, but im getting more and more annoyed about not getting more upper body done aswell. on that note i think i am going to start doing a full body routine after easter.
I have never done a full body routine so im excited to see how my body will react to it, especially after 3 years of shitty split routines (my ones not splits in general). Of course some isolation work will be needed, but as for now I dont think im going to get into that.
Im not completley sure whether its better to train HEAVY - LIGHT - HEAVY or LIGHT - HEAVY - LIGHT for my 3 gym days. I suppose ill figure that out after some research on the net.
I have also been thinking of cutting my gym days down to 2 (also a reason why I have started full body routines), as I do sparring sessions on fridays and am hoping to start a BJJ class soon. Basically this will mess up my whole schedule as I wont have enough time to get my 3 gym sessions a week as well as these new classes....unless I start training on saturdays. Too much to think about, updates when my head clears and i know what im doing.lol
