Still finding it difficult to figure out a useful type of work out schedule for yourself? Still worrying about which times are alright and which times are not so good for your workouts? I am telling you that you aren't the first (and certainly not the last) person to have problems with keeping a good work out schedule.

In this article I am going to write up a very common work out schedule that almost every body uses nowadays. Most people normally work out 3-4 days in a week, focusing mainly on a certain body part, or two, for each day and relaxing the next. Here's what a common work out schedule may look like:

Monday

This would probably be the day most people would train their chest and triceps. A common schedule may appear like this:

Warm up on treadmill or any cardio machine for about 15 minutes

-Followed by lower ab workouts (at least 3-5 workouts)

-Flat Bench Press (3 x 10-12)

-Seated 1-arm Dumbbell Extensions (3 x 10 with both arms)

-Incline Bench Press (3 x 10)

-Lying Barbell Extensions (3 x 10-12)

-Decline Bench Press (3 x 10)

-Seated 2-arm Dumbbell Extensions (3 x 10)

-Warm down on treadmill or any cardio machine for 15-20 minutes

Tuesday

People would probably let their chest and triceps muscles rest this day and focus on legs and shoulder workouts which would go like this:

-Warm up on training bike or treadmill for 15 minutes

-Followed by upper/middle ab workouts (at least 2-4 workouts)

-Barbell Squats (3 x 10-12)

-Dumbbell Shoulder Presses (3 x 10)

-Barbell Lunges (3 x 20)

-2-arm Side Deltoid Lateral Raises (3 x 10)

-Warm Down on training bike or treadmill for 20 minutes

Wednesday

No working out today. Take in a lot of water and eat healthy.

Thursday

Since the chest and triceps muscles have already been rested long enough, most people tend to work their back and biceps after their rest day.

-Warm up on rowing machine or treadmill for 15 minutes

-Followed by oblique workouts (at least 2-3 workouts)

-Bent Over Rows (3 x 10-12)

-Pull-Ups (Overhand Grip 3 x 10)

-Barbell Curls (3 x 10)

-Deadlifts (3 x 10)

-Dumbbell Curls (3 x 10 for each arm)

-Dumbbell Rows (3 x 12 for each arm)

Friday

Use the last weekday for some fat burning circuit training or high intensity interval training and take a rest for both days during the weekend.

Conclusion

Please remember that this is a normal type of schedule which many people use. You can do these workouts either in the morning or the evening for whichever time suits you best.
