Shoulders and Arms

I try to hit a set muscle group each day for five days out of the week. This type of training is called a blitz system. My blitz week is similar to this:

Monday - legs/abs, Tuesday - shoulders, Wednesday - back/abs, Thursday - arms, Friday - chest/abs

 However, due to my busy schedule lately (and the fact that I haven't been home in over a week) I'm finding it hard to put in my normal workouts each day. 

The solution to my problem was to turn my typical blitz system training week into a split routine system. In a split routine you break your workouts down to either a 4-day split or a 6-day split so they'll look something like this:

4-day split

Monday/Thursday - lower body

Tuesday/Friday - upper body  

6-day split

Monday/Thursday - lower body

Tuesday/Friday - chest, shoulders, triceps

Wednesday/Saturday - back and biceps

Sooo, instead of hitting shoulders on Tuesday and arms on Thursday I did them both in the same day! To conclude this post I shall leave you with my tri-set Shoulders & Arms Workout. Enjoy!
