3 Day Split Training Routine
Designed for those who want to gain tone and shape
Monday; Chest & Biceps
Wednesday; Back & Triceps
Friday; Legs & Shoulders
I would suggest that you set your programme out as
follows;
4-5 Exercises per body part
2-3 Sets per exercise
Set 1 x 10 reps
Set 2 x 8 reps
Set 3 x 6 - 4 reps
Make sure that you keep the weight to one that you can
handle without cheating. Keep a full strict movement. Try not to rest too long
between sets and remember that you are in the gym to make progress not to
socialise.

Calves;
Train your calves every day
that you go to the gym. But with the calves you only choose 1 exercise for that
day. You can choose from the following exercises;
- Seated Calve Raises
- Standing Calve Raises
- Leg Press Calve Raises
- Reverse Hack Squat Calve Raises
When choosing and exercise I
suggest that you also change your direction of your feet;
- Monday; Point Feet Forward
- Wednesday; Point Feet In
Friday;
