Hey guys,

Latelly, I follow the “PUSH, PULL, LEGS!” Scott’s workout plan. Also, during the Circuit-Days, I added the “BIGGER BICEPS IN 4 WEEKS” and “BIGGER CHEST IN 4 WEEKS” programs for biceps and chest alternately, like shown below.

 

MONTH1

Push-A

Circuit-A & BIGGER BICEPS IN 4 WEEKS

Pull-A

Circuit-B & BIGGER BICEPS IN 4 WEEKS

Legs-A

 

MONTH2

Push-B

Circuit-C & BIGGER CHEST IN 4 WEEKS

Pull-B

Circuit-D & BIGGER CHEST IN 4 WEEKS

Legs-B

 

MONTH3

Push-A

Circuit-A & BIGGER BICEPS IN 4 WEEKS

Pull-A

Circuit-B & BIGGER BICEPS IN 4 WEEKS

Legs-A

 

MONTH4

Push-B

Circuit-C & BIGGER CHEST IN 4 WEEKS

Pull-B

Circuit-D & BIGGER CHEST IN 4 WEEKS

Legs-B

 

 

 

Truth is that the results seem to be pretty amazing and I was thinking now to replace the “BIGGER BICEPS/CHEST IN 4 WEEKS” section with a different muscle group, like ABS or BACK.

 

So my question here is…are there any suggestions for a maybe “BIGGER ABS IN 4 WEEKS” workout?

Interesting set-up @jafarakos! I might have thought that was too much volume training your biceps 3 days in a row, even though they recover fast.. but if it worked, that's great!! 💪 

 

If you want to start focusing more on abs, then you could take the abs & obliques workout from the 5-Day Bodybuilding split and do that along with your circuits.. or you could take the two routines I mention in the video below and do one workout with each circuit!

Thanks man, I believe the two routines in the youtube video are what I was looking for.

 

*Usually, there was the Sunday (rest day for me) between PushA-CircuitA or CircuitA-PullA, cause it is a 5-day workout plan and I hit the gym 6 days a week....so it wasn't really 3 days in a row...it would have killed me haha ;)

Oh I see, that makes sense about your rest days in-between! Nice man, as long as you are seeing results with it then keep it going! Enjoy the ab workouts too, they are a couple of my favorites! 🙌
