Monday (chest, calves, & triceps)

Flat Bench (4 X 10)
Incline Bench (4 X 8)
Flat Dumbbell Flys (4 X 10)
Cable Crossovers (3 X 12)
Straight Bar Pushdowns (3 X 10)

Leg Extensions (4 X10)
Leg Curls (4 X 10)
Isolated Standing Calve raises (3 X 12)

Wednesday (shoulders, abs, & biceps)

Military Press (4 X 10)
Dumbbell Side Laterals (4 X 8)

One Arm Dumbbell Rows (4 X 8)
Close Grip Machine Rows (4 X10)
Shrug Machine (4 X 12)
Dumbbell Shrugs (standing) (4 X 12)
Ab Machine (3 X 25
Floor Crunches (3 X 25)

Friday (off-day)

Saturday -start over (chest/triceps)

This worked well for me while I was on-cycle but not so well when I'm off. Can anyone give me some good advice on how to modify the routine? I need a routine for when I am off cycle and how that routine should change when I start my next cycle around May 1. Thanks.

You should post this in the training forum dude.

Fire your personal trainer. I do much less than that, and I juice. I do 2 days on, 1 day off, and I only do 4 working sets per workout. It works for me. I'd say do no more than 10-12 working sets TOPS, but I respond well to extremely low volume workouts.

I personally agree with slobberknocker. I would do no more then 10-12 sets.

lol, what the fuck's a "reslut", and where can I get one?

I do 3-6 working sets to failure per bodypart... i've tried everything else and that way works by far the best.

lol, funny.

Thanks for the replies. The general consensus seems to be that I am overtraining. I will cut down on the sets and see what happens.
