You&#8217;ll notice that all the exercises you do for chest, shoulders, and triceps involve some type of pushing or pressing movement. For example, bench press, shoulder press, tricep push down, etc&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why we&#8217;re going to group all these muscle groups together in the same workout. This will allow the complementary muscle groups to get trained at the same time and also get equal recovery time between workouts.<\/p>\n<p>In the 2nd workout we&#8217;ll cover the <em>&#8220;pulling muscles&#8221;<\/em>, the Back &#038; Biceps, and in the 3rd and final workout we&#8217;ll cover training for the legs and abdominals.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click Play to watch the 1st Workout&#8230; Chest, Shoulders, &#038; Triceps.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"590\" height=\"472\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/2abQ5PUD09E?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\n<em><strong>Note:<\/strong> if for some reason you can\u2019t watch the embedded video clip above,<br \/>\nyou can watch it directly on my YouTube Channel at the link below:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2abQ5PUD09E\" title=\"Chest Workout\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2abQ5PUD09E<\/a><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n<p>If you like this video, make sure to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.YouTube.com\/leemhayward\" target=\"_blank\">Click Here &#038; Subscribe to my Bodybuilding Video Channel<\/a> so that you can get early notification of whenever I add new videos.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nYou can see Part 2 of this workout at: <a href=\"http:\/\/leehayward.com\/blog\/back-and-biceps-workout-program\">Back &#038; Biceps Workout Program<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can see Part 3 of this workout at: <a href=\"http:\/\/leehayward.com\/blog\/legs-and-abdominals-workout\">Legs &#038; Abdominals Program<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This 3 day bodybuilding split routine can be used by all lifters, from beginners right up to advanced levels, with good results.
