Full Routine #3
Friday, December 15th, 2006I need to not only change up my routine, but change the type of training I’m doing. I’ve been doing the 4-6 day a week type of program for a while. Browsing the training routines on BSN’s site, I liked the 2 day routine found on Anthony Presciano’s page. I gave the second day a try and liked how I felt after. Toward the end of a number of final sets, I was really feeling that tingle/microtearing that I haven’t really felt for a while. It gave a good hard pump and the next day I knew it worked well and could tell I needed the day off. The only thing I didn’t like was that the routine didn’t directly address the upper leg compartment completely, so I added a few sets to the Day 1 routine to hit the quads, adductors, and abductors. A couple other subtle changes were made yielding the routine below.
