Quads, shoulders, abs today and then conversatin’ about squirrels, nerdy scientists, and gym class.
I’m sticking to two exercises, maybe three max, per muscle group right now. It’s my second workout in a while, so I don’t want to go overboard. That’s the biggest mistake people tend to make when they get started working out (I’m pointing to myself here)!
For quads, I’m focusing on sissy squats on the bench and front squats. For shoulders, I’m focusing on seated military press, front raises on the low pulley, and rear delts on the low pulley. Rep range is between 12-15, if I can squeeze them out (more like 10-12 in most cases).
The reason I’m sticking to one exercise for abs right now is because my core is so weak and lagging behind everything that I’m making sure to go extra slow. I’ll probably start adding a second core exercise next week, or over the next few workouts, depending on how I feel.
Quads and shoulders go together like peas and carrots
My split right now, if you can call it that, is an abbreviated three day a week routine involving 1) chest and tri’s 2) hamstring, back ad bi’s 3) quads, shoulders and miscellaneous. This is the classic three day split. You hit all the major muscle groups within the span of a week. Rinse, repeat.
I plan to take a day off between workouts and then take weekends off. At least, that’s the plan . . .
Strength and honor,
