Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

I split my routine into 4 days right now for the lifting part.
Legs
Chest
Back
Shoulders and arms

Throw in a day off when I need one, sometimes I'll take every 5th day off from lifting, if I'm feeling good, I'll go right to it.

So I guess the answer (for now) is averaging 3 times every 2 weeks? I'm so confused by my own confusion. ;) :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

I was sort of on the same schedule. Now that I'm going to the gym 5 days a week, I was thinking of breaking it up into each main body part.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

If you break it up into more or less than 5 parts, you can just cycle.

1st Mon - Back
1st Tue - Chest
1st Wed - Legs
1st Thu - Shoulders Arms
1st Fri - Back

2nd Mon - Chest
etc etc etc

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Good work, Bob! :ze

Legs for me too. I just need to warm up the truck for like 4 hours. ;) :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Crushed it.

Went heavy on front squats and really fatigued the quads. Then went semi heavy on the leg press for reps, with a higher foot position than normal to really bring the hammies and glutes into it. Finished with some hammie curls, though about hack squats but said "f*** it, I'm tired". Hit some abs, then hit the lunch joint for bacon and eggs.

Hope you got a good one too, Bob. :tu

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

I’m here! Sorry. Just busy to post.

Same routines.

Stay warm Midwest

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Changing it up is a great thing Bob

We’d - heavy pull

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Good job, Huy! But 6 months on the same cycle? Need to change it up My Man!

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Well ok then. :D

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Just cardio yesterday. Going in for legs today, provided my head clears up.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Hope you feel better and kill it, Bob.

Imma keep rolling without a day off and make it International Chest Thursday.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

And looking above I can see it's hypertrophy legs day for Huy, and that he needs 4 more posts for 10K. :)

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Crushed it, I think my body has definitely made the full transition to using ketones for energy.
