Workout Program - Sound good?


I found this workout program on the Internet and wondered if it was good for someone (namely me) just starting to weightlift?

After proper warm up...
Monday: Chest, shoulders, and triceps; Cardio-20 min.
Tuesday: Legs and abs; Cardio-20 min.
Wednesday: Back and biceps; No cardio
Thurday: Rest
Friday: Full body strength training-1 hour; stretching
Saturday: Cardio-30 min.

Any comments or suggestions would be great. Thanks.

Welcome to the board.

*Just starting out, full body (chest, back, legs) 3 times a week works best. 6-10 reps as heavy as you can, after a warmup set.

Cardio is somewhat detrimental to muscle growth, but if you are a total couch potatoe, it will help more than hinder.

Once you stop adding weight weekly, you can split things up, so you can get more rest.

Hope that helps,
Fudo
