UGH im sick again for like the 3rd time this winter.
I think its a combination of work (someone is always sick and i handle boxes that have germs all over them), overdoing the workouts while lifting at work, and not taking rest days/back off weeks like i know i should.
So ive been thinking about changing my upper/lower split to a full body routine for a while. This would allow me to be more instinctive with my training, which will allow me to take days off when i need them and not miss working body parts in the process. Its also a great way to gain strength, which i need. And as someone pointed out in a post on www. Rosstraining.com it shouldnt leave me as stiff and sore as i have been, so ill be able to perform better at work.
This is what im thinking.
3 days per week alternating workout A + B
Workout A
Squats 3 sets
bench press 3 sets
seated rows 3 sets
upright rows 3 sets
zottman curls 3 sets
superset 2 sets:
palm down wrist curls
palm up wrist curls
Workout B
Deadlift 3 sets
Chin Ups 3 sets
Military Press 3 sets
Close Grip bench Press 3 sets
Core Circuit 3 sets:
Chinnies
Supermans
Plank
Reps for everything except Core and Forearms will be in the 5-8 range.
For conditioning ill add finishers, do cardio after work and/or replace my strength workout with a conditioning workout from time to time. It wont be long before its nice enough to ride my bike anyway so im more concerned with adding muscle and strength atm.
Thoughts and/or opinions are appreciated.
