Beginner Bodybuilding Workout:

6:04 AM Posted by ktales


I've put together a program for my brother and figured out I'd share the program. It's not difficult and it's similar to what I do for my workouts. As the program progressed, I'll make changes accordingly.





Day 1=chest and Tri,
Day 2 = Back, traps & rear delts
Day 3= Legs
Day 4 = Shoulders and Biceps
Each workout do hanging leg raises and decline twists - do three sets of each as many as you can.

Workout 1:

Take the bench press out - this will cause shoulder injuries down the road. Keep it simple.
  • DB flys - 3 sets, do drop sets
  • Incline DB Flyes - 3 sets, do drop sets
  • Decline DB Flyes - 3 sets, do drop sets

  • Dips - (3 sets)
  • Skull Crushers (3 sets)
  • Pressdowns (1 set to finish)
Workout 2:
  • seated rows - 4 sets
  • 2 arm Bent db row - (3 sets, drop set)
  • DB or BB shrugs - 3 sets, min of 12
  • Bent rear delt flyes (db) - 3 sets, min of 12
