Fitting Deadlift into my Schedule
As on now, my lifting workout does not fit in deadlifts, but I've been looking to try and get them in at some point. Please feel free to also pick my routine apart with any criticism/suggestions. My current schedule is as follows.....
Monday-off
Tuesday - tris/chest/shoulders/traps
Wednesday - Bi/bac/forearms/abs
Thursday - Legs
Friday - tris/chest/shoulders/traps
Saturday - bi/bac/forearms/abs
Sunday - Legs
Tris/chest/shoulders/traps consists of...
Bench, Incline Bench, Decline Bench, a tri ext, dips, pec fly, shrugs, close grip upright rows*
Bi/bac/forearms/abs is.....
Wide grip pull ups, chins, lat pull downs, rows, curls, hammer curls, then 2 different forearm exercises*, whatever ab exercise is open
Leg's day is.....
atg squat, leg ext, leg curl, calf raises
usually 6-7 sets on squats w/ 1-2 warmup sets, and the rest i usually raise to 5 sets each
*not sure on some of the exercise names
Each workout takes a good hour, with usually 4 sets of 8-10 reps each exercise and 1 min between sets. But the thing is, I dont know what to throw around because deads seem to hit legs and bac and recovery/overtraining is a concern. Im almost tempted to just throw the deads on a bac day and see how I feel, but I thought I would get some opinions 1st.
