Need a 2 day split

agamble Posts: 1,029 Joined: 2003/09/22	2004/01/10, 04:17 PM I would like some sugestions as to a good 2 day split. One that I can get a good workout M, T and repeat Th, F. I plan to work abs on Wed. Or just some thoughts on the subject, pros-cons. I would like to follow this program for about 5-6 weeks. It's friggin cold and I'm pretty much stuck in the house til spring. Not really interested in much isolation (I can do that later), mainly compound type exercises Thanks

Not much is said about this type of split so I was just checking it out. Mainly I was interested in any comments regarding working, say legs, twice a week as opposed to once.

I did it for one week Monday and Friday. Well one week of that and I didn't like it. I might try another week or two to see if it gets better. It just don't 'feel' right if that makes any sense. I may just have to go back to my previous split. 4 day, 4 exercises per body part, compound lifts. I liked it alot. I really want to put on a few more pounds before April.
