How much rest should i give my muscles to get good results? Am i overworking my body?
November 4th, 2010I go to the gym often it used to be every day and i have only 2 routines
1st day Back-biceps-shoulders and abs
2nd day Pecs-Triceps-abs and running
Are these good workout sessions? i do it with alot of weight but on some days i am just too tired am i doing way too much? should i give one day of rest between each workout session? Will more rest give me better results?
Each day do 1 pushing bodypart with 1 pulling so as not to prefatigue the 2nd bodypart and not get full benfits from your work out. Try Chest & Back and Bi’s & Tri’s. This is a time tested proven way to do it. I do it this way. You can place your weaker boypart 1st too. What about legs?? Never skip right out on legs! That is 1/2 of your body. What about Forearms & Traps? Each bodypart should get equal consideration. Never do tri’s with Chest or Back & Biceps. That is very self defeating and your progress will be much slower.
Do it right the 1st time and get much quicler results. Running/Cardio should be done at least 5 x per week, same as abs.
