Best workout plan. When to workout chest, back, etc. Also, best neck workout?
mrbradg123 asked:
I am in good shape and run 30 mins everyday. I normally workout chest on Monday, legs on Tuesday, back on Wed., Triceps on Thurs and Bi's on Friday. Is this the best thing to do to give the muscles the much needed rest they need?

Also, what is the best neck workout. I always see the very fit guys have that strong chizzled neck and always have wondered how to get it. I looked up on bodybuilding.com a workout where you get on the floor and arch your back and support your body weight just with your head on the ground. Does this work or have anything better?
Please answer both questions if all possible. This will help me out a lot. Thanks in advance.

the workout plan that you already have is not bad at all.. except the problem is i do not see any shoulder workout in there…..
In general and ultimately you only need to workout each muscle once per week aside from you abs which u can do every other day… your weight workout should not take u more then 45 - 60 mins maxiumum! none of this working out for 2 hours.. muscles need about 2 -3 days to recover, and another 2 -3 days to grow….
So you want a stronger more chissled neck.. well shoulder shrugs are always good.. that should be enough really….. honestly you do not need alot of neck work…
goodluck.. i am sure you already look great!

Variety of exercise is the key I have found. For example..an exercise called Mountain Climbers. Its from a workout that also contains a section for females and males which is excellent.
Mountain climbers are done by starting in a pushup position
and then shuffling your feet in and out so that your knees are
moving in under your chest and then back out to starting
position. It sort of resembles climbing a mountain but flat on
the floor. If you want an advanced version, you can also shuffle your hands 8-10 inches forward and backward in
addition to the leg movements. This really makes it a full
body exercise and MUCH more difficult than standard mountain climbers.
After finishing each exercise, rest about 30 seconds before
starting the next exercise. Rest about 1-2 minutes after
completing each "tri-set" before repeating.
This will give you one of the best ab workouts you've ever had
without even doing any direct ab exercises. You'll see what I
mean after you try it!
Once you get away from the myth that a 1000 crunches and 500 situps a day is all you need to do for great abs, then amazing results can be seen.
There is a completely free 65 page ebook about exercise, nutrition, abs and stomaches in particular at that you can download (no catch!) and it is excellent.
It helped me greatly.
