Currently, I am training push twice a week, and I was wondering if I should do a second push workout so I can do one on Monday, and then the other on Friday. Should my second push focus more on incline, shoulders, and triceps?
Here is my current push program:
- Bench press 5x5
- Incline dumbbell (2 sets)
- Cable fly ( 2 sets)
- Decline fly (2 sets)
- Shoulder press machine (2 sets)
- Lateral raise (2 sets)
- machine lateral raise (2 sets)
- Skull crushers (2)
- Tricep push down (2)
Thanks!
What is your training goal? No one can tell you how to get there if we don’t know where you are going.
If the total volume in a week is the same it doesnt matter.
As far as the second part of your question, whole pec works on incline, flat and decline - it doesnt matter. The difference between exercases and angles might matter for bodybuilders whose muscles look so huge you might actually see some neuances, but for 99% of people it wont make a noticable difference. Otherwise those guys who do chest and biceps every day would actually have chest and biceps.
My training goal is to build muscle, i’m currently weighing 170 lbs right now (6 ft), trying to get to 185-190 lean but also get stronger too.
I would personally split it up, if I were you, because that would have me in the gym for two hours and I’d be bored and cranky.
Wouldn’t you go Monday/ Thursday rather than Friday?
