What are the main changes I will have to make to my routine if I am going to make this change?

I am able to train 4 times a week fo around 1hr 15mins a time.

Currently I only train 3 times a week split

Mon: Chest
Wed: Legs
Fri: Back

I lift to max or almost max every session with low reps 2 - 3 leaving a full weeks recovery.

Always start with the main compund excercise for that bodypart and then move onto 3 or 4 smaller excercises per body area.

Hopefully this background will help you lot suggest some changes

Cheers,

Depends on how experienced you are and how big you are, but I love the simplicity of your routine, back, chest, legs excellent!

If you are starting out there is little need to do lots of isolation stuff just stick with big compounds in a rep range of 10-12 reps with 9-12 sets for large body parts.

You could slow the movement down too, try 2 up 3 down on your presses/pulls instead of explosive lifts.

its a very basic start but it will get you in the right direction.

My routine is a little more complicated than that:

Chest + Tris
Legs + Bis
Back + Shoulders

But I simplified it and didn't include exact excercises as I am up for a total change as I think I have settled into what I am doing to much and my body needs a change to shock it into growth again.

I have bought your diata eBook Chefx and am in process of figuring out and buying supplies. Should be able to start some time next week

up the reps, keep the weights slightly lower, concentrating on form rather than getting the lift up. more isolation movements (IMO) and as chef says, diet to grow
