I always start with legs to get the entire nervous system fired up. Studies show they are the highest anabolic and catecholamine response to get you fired up for your next exercises, and they will make you stronger on the upper body movements. They indirectly help the other muscles as well as your entire body grow faster.

Full body works well for me. I do 4x per week, and after 2 or 3 weeks, I realized it also exercised my adaptation. I’m now very used to it. One key is to spread the work out across the week, and always alternate the body part you lead with. Don’t always begin your workout with the same muscle group.

The high frequency and specificity of minimalist high intensity full body routine has produced the most lean and dense muscle of my whole life. Im doing better at 37 then I ever have.

There's definitely some truth behind these workouts. I know from experience 👍

wow a fitness instructor actually gave useful information without trying to get me to pay for it

I've been on full body for a while, just recently started to really fine tune my workouts. 2 days a week, I'm in the gym for a total of ~60-90 minutes, and then I sprinkle in some cardio between rest days. Works well, very taxing on CNS, so to those who want to try: make sure you're eating and resting properly to support these workouts!

Here’s my full-body training split if anyone wants to try it!

5 min warmup:
Band Stretches
Deep squats
Cat cow
Long lunge

First routine

Quads - Deep Squats
Chest - Weighted Push-ups
Abs - Leg raises

Second routine (rest 5 mins)

Hamstrings - Deadlifts
Back - Pull-ups
Shoulders - Pike push-ups
Calves - Calves raises

This should take around 1 hour to complete, reps do between 10-12 and 3-5 sets.

2 bodypart a day is best for me.
Monday: Chest triceps
Tuesday: Back bicep abs
Wednesday: Legs shoulder
Thursday: Chest tricep
Friday: Back bicep abs
Saturday: Legs, shoulder
Sunday: running/jogging

progressive overload: try in your fullbody workout add weight in each sets. Be sure take enough rest between sets.

[BradleyCTurner]

3 sets of incline bench/3 sets of pull ups
3sets of squats/3 sets of hammer curls
3 sets of tricep extensions/3 sets lateral raises/3 sets of leg raises.
(Added extra) 3 sets of leg curls/3 sets of calve raises.
An example of a full body workout ive done and took 50 minutes/1 hour with the added extra. The / are supersetted.
Without the supersets it will take longer but theyre incredibly useful and increase my work capacity.

I love this idea! Calisthenics version: All movements for upper body require elevating the feet to or above the level of the hands at rest.
Deficit Push-up—chest, triceps, abs, anterior delts, lower back
Inverted Rows, supinated grip—traps, biceps, rhomboids, posterior deltoids, etc.
Weighted split squat
Weighted single leg RDL

Check out Steve Reeves full-body workout he did 3 exercises per body part for 3 sets, 3x a week

I love doing full body splits. I do 5 days a week. My body responds very well to this and I stay energetic without feeling so much soreness from day to day. I feel I’m able to go harder everyday becuase I’m not extremely fatigued from the day before.

[thegloryofyoungmenistheirs]

I been doing full body twice a week for years and it’s definitely worked for me for sure!

But ultimately any split will build muscle optimally as long as your recovery is on point. The split is more of a preference thing and how it works with your daily life scheduling.

[JMK]

I was hoping this was in the description box

[Mustafa]

I do 1-2 exercises per body part but I do 2 sets. I will sometimes do 3 but generally 2 sets

[mynameisjeff]

Only problem is I feel like this isn’t enough volume for your legs

[paulcervantes]

Been at the full body routine a few weeks..was tough programming in side and rear delt training

[julesarnott-ford]

Definitely looking to try this out. Should I warm up before every exercise I do or just get straight into it? Just wanna make sure I’m doing things right
