Here is a link to it. so weeks1-8 you only workout three days a week and most of the excercises are 3 sets of 8-12 reps. Heres a link to the workout. Weeks 9-10 and 11-12 are on there as well


So it goes...
Monday-
Squat
Bench Press
Deadlift
Pullups/superset with dips
Barbell Bentover row
Dumbell shoulder press
barbell curl/superset with lying tricep extentions

Wednesday-
Squat 5x5*
Bench Pres*s 5x5
Deadlift 5x5*
Maximal intended velocity reps, using a relatively light weigh and performing each rep as explosively as possible

Friday-
Squat
Bench Press
Deadlift
Pullups/superset with dips
Barbell Bentover row
Dumbell shoulder press
barbell curl/superset with lying tricep extentions

Im not really crazy about it. I like that it hits things multiple times per week, but it's not hitting enough IMO. Right now I'm cutting on a 5 day split, hitting everything at least twice a week and doing about 100 sets total. This only has 63 sets. U will grow with this but if u want mass u need as much volume as u can recover from.

It kind of depends. When you are starting out and your total poundages are kind of low, then this program is fine. It has bench, deadlift and squats three times a week. But lats are worked in the barbell row only twice a week. That doesn't make any sense. You will want to work opposing major muscle groups equally. Chest and back. Bicep and tricep. Quads and hamstrings.
You have a dude with big biceps and small triceps for that Abercrombie & Fitch model look, what is up with that?:camby:
Or they go for big chest and delts and no lats? Kenny Chesney is like that. :camby:
Or you have guys training quads more than hamstrings. That's a problem if you run because your quad can contract stronger than the hamstring which will then cause a pulled hamstring. (or at least that's what happens during hard sprinting, not jogging)

Skip the dumbbell shoulder press and do barbell shoulder press. You aren't working the stabilizing muscles as much compared to using a barbell, but you are maximizing deltoid mass growth, or at least that's what I've experienced.

My workout is kind of based on PHAT. 3 upper body days 2 lower body days. Pretty much all supersets but it's also built around my weaknesses (chest and arms)

Upper days

Chest/arms/back
Bench/lat pulldowns (3x6/10)
Close grip dumbbell bench/rows (3x10)
Tricep pushdowns/curls (3-5x12)

Chest/arms/shoulders
Bench/upright rows (3x9/10)
Behind the neck press/curls (3x10/12)
Lateral raises/tricep pushdowns (3x12)

Full upper body
Bench/upright rows (3x9/10)
Behind the neck press/lat pulldowns (3x10)
Seated cable rows/close grip dumbbell press (3x10)
Tricep pushdowns/ standing curls (3-5x10)
Lateral raises/preacher curls (PCs optional, 3x12)

Legs I just do squats, SLDLs, hamstring curls and calf raises twice a week (again built around my weaknesses)

I know starting out it's tough to figure out what you like but I would try different exercises and see what you like best for each body part. Everybody is different. You gotta have core lifts like bench, squats, deads, some kind of pulling motion and something for shoulders, but beyond that :manny:

Hope that helps.

I mean if it may work for some people, but do you think you're gonna have enough energy to perform quality pullups/dips and bent over rows after squats bench and deadlift? That sounds like too much work to me, but i like doing body splits :manny: . Try it out though and see how you like it. Everybodys body responds differently to regimens. Make sure you eat a whole lot and get good rest with all that work
