Default Split Routines the body building workout

Serious weight lifters mostly body builders usually train with a greater variety of exercises and volume than they can accomplish in one training session. It is for that reason that split the total routine into 2 - 3 groups of exercise, and alternate amoung these groups. This type of training allows for faily training and adequate rest.

Method #1 (Upper body / Lower body)
This picture has been added to the attatchments for easier viewing.

Method 1 is a 2 day split, this allows for west between Monday and tuesday, etc.

Method #2 is a 3 - day split

Method #3 is a push/pull split, upright row or pull day. Another method that can be utilized is giant sets which is used occasionally by today's top bodybuilders (incorporated into split rotuines). This type of protocol pushes muscles to complete exhaustion which maximinzes the number of recruits fibers.
