No need to change. You encourage muscle growth through eating food and increasing the weight you lift regularly.
If you want to look like the guys from 300, get a fake tan and get them to spray on some abs.
No worries I'll stick with it. But in time maybe 6 to 9 months down the track I certainly wold like to change it up. If nothing else just to try something different. I keep reading all over the place changing the program even if its just the rep range can encourage great gains. Of course i'm getting good gains so who am I to complain
I do try to eat as much as possible but it is hard with a mortgage. I'll be smashing into turkey over christmas though, can wait.
Dude, eating big cost fuck all.
Weekly shopping list looks like this... (The shit that goes off quick like fruit and milk is bought once a week, the rest every 2-3 weeks. Meat not needed is frozen).

Eggs
Mince beef - 3kg
Chicken breast - 4kg
Coles tinned tuna
Cheap brown rice
Cottage cheese
frozen veges
Milk
Banana
Total ~$120
Splitting/changing your training is fine. As long as you keep the same basic movements you should be ok.
There's no harm in training each body part twice a week (or 8 days as I'd prefer to do it) once you've got 12 months of 3x/week body part training under your belt.
Something like this should rock:
Monday: Chest, shoulders, Triceps
Tuesday: Legs
Wednesday: Back, Biceps
Thursday: Rest or 100 star jumps or 100 burpees (depending on your needs and priorities at the time).
Friday: What you did on Monday (not necessarily the same exercises though)
Saturday: What you did on Tuesday (not necessarily the same exercises though)
Sunday: Rest or 100 star jumps or 100 burpees (depending on your needs and priorities at the time).
Doing it as above would have you train each body part twice every 8 days and would take you a month before you get back to the structure of the first week. Each body part would receive a direct rest for 4 days except what is trained on a Wednesday would always receive 5 days direct rest and plenty of time to have you looking not like those 300 men, but better still!
Bye for now Mick.
Fadi.
I cant believe this situation is still coming up.
What you look like is determined by your eating.
How much you lift is determined by your training.
As long as your stimulating each muscle, the program is irrelevant for body recomposition.
Most look at the training because it takes 3 hours a week of discipline where diet is 165 hours
I'm exhausted trying to get this through to the young kids at my gym, they come in train, while munching on packets of potato chips and mother drinks.
