Hey all. About 2-3 months lifting i have.
Looking for a full body workout 3 times a week with high intensity and wont leave me bored. Splits are fun and exhausting, full body i dont feel nearly as much.
All workout suggestions will be appreciated.
GO NUTS!!!
 
Please post what routine you were following for the first 2 months, and the one from the last 3 (going off info in the bench thread).

Your comment leaves me wondering if you're actually after a full body or a split (ie, splits fun/exhausting, full body dont feel as much)

Check out the 'Beginners Look Here' thread for 3 good beginner programs.

I've moved to a full body workout this week, from a split routine, and taken it from Markos' program. It's done 3 times a week as follows:

Squat 3 x 10
Bench press 3 x 8
Bent rows 3 x 8
Dips 3 x 8
Military Press 3 x 8
Dumbbell Curls 3 x 8

This is done 3 times a week and every second workout I do deadlifts 2 x 5, between bp and rows.

Guidelines

• Alternate the A and B routines. For example, do A on Monday and Friday and B on Wednesday. The next week, perform B on Monday and Friday and A on Wednesday.

• Perform 1 set of 8-12 repetitions per exercise. After 12 or more repetitions are achieved, increase the resistance by 2-5 percent at the next workout.

• Lift and lower the resistance smoothly on each repetition. A tried-and-proven speed of movement is 3 seconds on the lifting (positive) and 3 seconds on the lowering (negative).

• Continue each set of repetitions until momentary muscular fatigue
