How am I supposed to work out?

[Anonymous]

I started going to the gym and I wondered if I should do leg days, back days,.. or just train all muscles whenever I am there. What would you suggest? And why? Thanks :)

Train specific muscles on certain days

Train all muscles

It depends how often you're working out, and what type of workouts you're doing.

There are advantages to full body training.

But if you're doing hypertrophy range work (toning lets call it) you need to let that muscle group recover. Recovery speed depends somewhat on you.

Some guys are training 5-6 days a week, and going heavy, so the individual muscles need breaks, so they do certain muscles certain days.

Other people may go twice a week, they should almost certainly do full body in most cases.

It depends on intensity and how often you're at the gym.

I highly recommend you consult with someone who knows what they are doing, or one of the gym staff.

I did and they told me to train all muscles whenever I am there but I am still wondering because I often hear about people having leg days, back days, arm days,..

Do not train all muscle groups in one day, spread them throughout the week.

Example:

Monday - Chest/Triceps

Tuesday - Legs/Abs

Wednesday - Rest

Thursday - Back/Biceps

Friday - Chest/Shoulders

Saturday - Legs/Lower Back

Sunday - Wild Card (Anything you want including rest)

Thanks for the suggestion :)

If you're starting out just do general that's what I did
When I lost some of the fat I started to do specifics to tone and build the area

Train different muscles each day that way u give each muscle group a break.
