Hey All, would like yoour advice, Im 43 and my sons 17, we have been training together for about 8 months and have seen good gains in both size and strength(not massive but good). We have been doimg 3 days a week on a 2 day split, chest/shoulders/tris, legs/back/bi's, which on average is 1.5 days a week ovver a fortnight. I was talking to one of the bigger guys at the gym the other day and he was saying 3 bodyparts a night were probably too many as your body has to send its blood all over the place in the one night, rather than really concentrate on a couple of muscle groups, he said really hitting 2 would be better. So I was thinking of switching our workout to chest/tris, back/bi's, shoulders/legs and doing an extra set on each part(we currently do 3 exercised 4 sets to failure) or an extra exercise for each part, this would allow us to really concentrate on each muscle group and also cut our gym time (currently about 1hr 40 mins) to about an hour which I have been told is as much as you should do(and I know my son would like). My only problems this. that would mean only training each body part once a week, which I know lots of people do, but before i have even started the routine I dont feel I will be doing enough. I know the only thing to do is try it, and inevitably thats probably what I will do, but I'd hate to be working out and going backwards (especially for him). Any advice/opinions would be greatly appreciated......Pete
