Weight Lifting Workout - 3 Day Split For Building Muscle

This weight lifting workout will help you to put on a TON of mass if you follow it correctly.

Monday is chest, shoulders and triceps day. I tend to do the following exercises in sets of 3-4 with 1-2 minutes in between sets, and stay in the 6-12 rep range. It is important to group these 3 exercises together because they all work in tandem anyway and will get exhausted working out together. The exercises I do are: Bench press, military press, dips, incline dumbbell press, and then shrugs to finish the workout off.

On Wednesday you can work out the back and biceps. These exercises compliment each other well as you typically will use the bicep with back exercises, and vice versa. Do deadlifts, for 10-12 reps of 3-4 sets, Barbell Curls, for the same amount.

For the biceps, dumbbell bicep curls repeated in four sets of six reps each can be accompanied by dumbbell hammer curls of four sets for at least six repetitions each. Forearms are typically trained with barbell wrist curls of ten reps in three sets.

Friday is leg day for me at least, I like to do it last because its the most painful and you will likely need the weekend to recover from it. Some great lower body exercises that can be worked into the Friday session include leg extension for the quads, leg curls for the hamstrings,and standing calf raises for your calf muscles. All these are best done in ten repetitions of two or three sets each.
