Two days on, one off, three days on, one off.
Rep range is from 6 to 10.
Warm up first, then start with heaviest weight, as I tire, the weight gets dropped so that I can stay in the same rep range- if that makes sense.
Abs are done Saturdays and Tuesdays
Calves are done on Sundays and Wednesdays
Saturday - Chest (current routine to focus on more upper chest thickness)
5 sets incline dumbells
4 sets flat bench dumbells
3 sets of dips
2 sets cable flys to failure
2 sets of high rep dumbell pullovers
Sunday - Back (back exercises are varied each workout, but set pattern stays the same). Due to some serious low back pain, I don't deadlift or do low back extensions.
4 sets front lat pull-downs
4 sets cable rows.
3 sets machine rows for upper lats
3 sets dumbell rows
