Anatomically, there are hundreds of muscles in the human body. When it comes to muscle building, it's easier to categorize it into these 7 muscle groups, and focus on hitting all 7 muscle groups throughout the course of the week.


7 muscle groups:


  1. Back

  2. Chest

  3. Biceps

  4. Triceps

  5. Shoulders

  6. Legs

  7. Accessories (traps & forearms)

Creating your own workout schedule (split):


Using a workout plan that doesn't suit your lifestyle may result in struggles to consistently allocate time for exercise each week. The most important things when it comes to building a personalized split are:


  • Plan your gym routine around your lifestyle. Not the other way around!!

  • Exercise each muscle group with 10-20 sets per week.


  • Allow a minimum of 48-72 hours of rest for each muscle group before training it again.


  • Decreasing the frequency of your workouts increases the duration of workout sessions (if you workout 7 days a week, your sessions will take much less time than if you only workout 2 days a week).
