Patience



Patience is a virtue in the sport of Bodybuilding.  Many times people fail in their routine because they are not satisfied by their short term gains and do not have the patience to see the long term goal. Patience means that, you are able to wait for whatever happens and be consistent in your training no matter the period of time.

Changing it up


One of the things I try and do is keep changing the order of my split to help keep things fresh and intense.  I still stick to lifting each body part one time per week, but I like to change the order to place more of an emphasis on lagging body parts.  On this rotation I am placing an emphasis on my shoulder and trap development.  I am still following a 5-6 day split with my off days placed by how I am feeling and I also skip one workout per week, for added recovery.  Here's how it looks....

Shoulders and Traps
Bis, Tris and Calves
Deadlifts,hamstrings and glutes
Chest and abs
Back
Legs with a quad focus


Today started the week off right, with shoulders and traps.  Tara and I really flew through it and overall really happy with how it went!
