This is a sample routine that Zyzz provided. I have modified some movements to make this easy for beginners to utilize. 4 day split routine, 1 day full body with compound movements! 3 month program, strive to up weight in 5lb increments to prevent plateau. Start complex moves with light weight to master form! The weight is less important than the form. Ab training is happening almost every day from the compound movements, because they engage the core (even squats!).
**Note** on Chest/Bicep day, you will do 3 sets of preacher curls, then drop weight by 1/2 and complete 8 more reps.
**Note** on Shoulder/Tricep day, you will alternate between barbell and dumbbell shoulder press each week. So, wk 1, barbell shoulder press, wk 2, dumbell shoulder press, etc...
