  • It sounds like you're a beginner op. You shouldn't be doing a bro split, in fact no natural weight lifter should be doing a bro split unless you're using illegal drugs and wanting to be a competition bodybuilder or power lifter. Split routine workouts only became a thing in the 80's when the bodybuilding sport got saturated with all the illegal drugs it has now.

    I'd recommend a full body 3x a week 5x5 workout. You can do Starting Strength, StrongLifts 5x5, All Pro's, Juggernaut TV's 5x5(youtube), etc.

    I'm just a girl, so I have nothing to add to the conversation. But maybe one of these big strong men will load the plates onto a bar for me ...

    I swear it makes me want to compare biceps with him. I hope I'm not the only one feeling that :D:D

    I am pretty sure mine are bigger :p and if not- I KNOW I can DL him as well.

    GIGGLE>

    To bad he doesn't know women train the same as men... you know- because we seriously lift too- lift sammishes- and beer... and their feet to dust the coffee table.

    What sort of nonsense do I need to spew to compare biceps with women? That sounds fun.

    Replying because: I'm a woman who lifts and am not supposed to...

    I follow a 4 day split on 5/3/1 and work related muscle groups after my 'big lifts':
    -Bench
    -DL
    -OHP
    -Squat

    I'd advise not doing full body every day but working certain muscle groups (push/pull, or do upper/lower, etc.) so that your muscles have enough time (I'd say at least 48 hours) to recover.
    if all you womenthink u have good routines you should of took your 2 minutes of typing to possst them and MAKE me see them.. Instead of using those two minutes to complain . if U guys are so prideful and confident in your routine you shuld have just posted them anyway like this lady did. Even though i didnt want to see them . I would much rather see ur routine than ur complaing . Geez

    Lmao, kid, stop digging yourself deeper into a hole, I bet some of these ladies use your max as a warm-up.
    Doubt it .

  • Hell hath no fury like a woman who lifts. Looks like the OP is looking to get certain parts of his anatomy loped off and handed back to him in a baby food jar.
