Was planning on doing Leg Extensions as well, but these four lifts did me in pretty well and it was already past an hour. So what do you guys think of my leg routine? Planning on doing a 4 day split - Legs, Back&Biceps, Shoulders, Chest&Triceps. Haven't quite finished my plans for the other days but I'll post em up here when I do.

close grip bench more than you can incline? pec decks shit compared to flys / cable cross' etc.

y do u mix it between muscles, do each muscle group after eachother.

ur triceps need to be at a good standard whilst doing chest, whereas training ur triceps doesn't incorporate chest. do chest first, then tri's.

Does rep speed really matter on isolations? I find it hard to keep a real constant speed but I have to force myself to slow it down sometimes. Should I be following 2-1-2 rep speeds or does it not matter?

Link to comment

2-1-2 rep speeds are best for muscle building, i usually follow it for the non really heavy sets of 8-10, but since i 'one sided pyramid set' when i go down to low reps high weights, i just do it as fast as possible

As chris said, you dont need to have somebody with a stopwatch telling you when to contract and retract lol.

Its just a guideline really

Ok, yeah I just kind of count it out in my head. But on some of the lifts I feel the need to do em faster idk. Is there a certain way I need to breathe too? On most lifts I inhale, lift, exhale. But sometimes its the other way around idk.
