I was working a four split routine, which was cool, but time consuming and difficult f I needed to take time away for work or too look after the boy. So I redesigned my workouts to go to t three day rotations and allow a day between each grouping. So for instance
Day 1 chest shoulders tri
Day 2 legs
Day 3 back bi
Day 4 rest
Looks tough, especially when you consider that back will have dead lifts, (thanks to Hayley for the coaching advice so I can actually do them properly now), legs will have squats and chest…well we’ll come onto that in a min.
but remember life is a bitch, so I usually get days off at irregular intervals and rarely go three days straight, this split also means that, if I miss a day it doesn’t push my week about too much.
BUT I’ve plateau. Day 1 last nigh was a nightmare, I have real issues with chest day, I can’t bench without a spotter and then its feeble, always has been. Last night I was using dumbbells and, well, it sucked, I was weak and listless.
And then there’s my body weight, I’m told I’m looking bigger, but I don’t see it, worse my weight it static. I WAS improving on my lifts, but that has stopped also, I think I need a break for a few days to re-charge.
And yes I know, eat, and I do, obviously not enough but a guy can only force so much food down his gullet, you know 
Rest and relaxation for a couple of days, next week I’m intending to have another go at that damned bench press
Stay healthy
