After two cycles using A & B workouts 3 x per week as described, I was dealing with too many aches & pains, especially in the pecs & lats, to keep it going.
Assuming it was the frequency of training each body part, I've split the workouts into Legs/Back/Bi & Chest/Shoulder/Tri, training each twice per week.
Original workout:
Alternating A & B, M, W & F
A:
squat
bench
rows
dumbell shldr press
lying tri extensions
curls
B:
deadlift
dips
pulldowns
military
overhead tri extension (1 dumbell)
alt dbell curls
I'm using the same exercises, but now it's:
M, T, Th, F with M & Th using the Leg/Back/Bi exercises from the above list, and T & F using the Chest/Shoulder/Tri exercises.
I'm trying to keep the frequency sufficient, and would appreciate your thoughts around this idea. Two weeks into the new 2x per week & I'm noticeably less achy.
