My Push/Pull Workout

Postby AvalonX » Wed May 30, 2012 4:07 pm

Push 1
Squats 4x6-8
Flatbench 4x6-8
Overhead Press with Olympic bar 3x8
Dips 3x8 (With weight is possible)
Tricep Pulldowns 2x10
abs


Pull 1
Wide Grip Pulldowns 4x6-8
Chin ups 2x10
Seated Row 3x8
Standing Barbell Curls 2x8
Shrugs 3x8
Hammer Curls 2x8

Push 2
Incline FB 4x6-8
Side DB raises 3x8-10
Leg Extensions 3-8
Tricep rope 3x8-10
One leg DB calf raises 3x8-10
abs

Pull 2
Close grip pulldowns 4x6-8
Pull ups 2x10
Reverse Leg Curls 3x8
Bent over DB row 3x8
Preacher curl 3x8

The goal is to do 3 workouts per week with 20 minutes of cardio after each. The alternating of the workouts keep it fresh. These are mostly compound movements. It works well for me because if I miss a day, I just pick up the next workout. I don't need to worry that chest day is Monday etc. If I could Deadlift that would be in there but I can't. I have been doing this for some time with good results. Would you tweak anything?

Great overall workout. A push/pull split is something I have never done before and as I come to the end of my current routine, it is something that I am strongly considering.

Looks like a solid bodybuilding style split routine. I prefer to keep my routine simple, with less isolation exercises. I'm also not a fan of exercises like lat pull down, pull ups and chin ups are infinitely better exercises for your lats and back. Not a bad routine for a bodybuilder, though.
