Reduced BMI
increased fitness for army
Pass selection
All of these point to fitness based work, not training for strength or aesthetics |
Okay again, lets return to the issue made by the O.P. as opposed to you directing a thread where you want it to go.
Chris asked for a Push/Pull/Legs split.
Chris's issue is that his BMI is too high.
Chris says he can do everything else required to pass the entry exam barring the fact he is holding too much BF.
Chris is already doing Cardio and someone (who I don't know - the entry sargeant?) has advised him to do a Push/Pull/Legs split along with this.
Chris hasn't asked for everyone to to make him fit enough to pass the entry exam, just reduce his BMI.
I know from other posts that Chris is following a diet.
So to answer Chris's question there is a perfectly useful Push/Pull/Legs split in the link in my siggy.
Had Chris said "Lads I need to get fit for the army what do I do" then my reply would have been different - and would have followed a GPP style reply, of long distance running, interval training, tabatas, Pressups, Burpees, Chins, Jacks etc etc etc, but as Chris has provided information which confirms all he needs is a basic 3 day split to get a bit stronger and loose some chub to pass an entry example then I beleive I have fulfilled his criteria... Agreed...? :lift:
