Beginning Bodybuilding Chest and Shoulders. This routine is geared towards beginners. If you're intermediate or advanced this video won't be very beneficial. We'll be doing 3 exercises for chest today and 2 exercises for shoulders. B/c we're aiming for 12 sets for larger muscle groups, we'll be doing 4 sets on each exercise. For smaller muscle groups, we're looking at 6-9 total sets (in today's case we're doing 8). This routine is very customizable and can be changed to your liking. On all exercises you should be able to get at least 8 reps, but not more than 12.

Flat Bench (DB or BB) 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps
Incline Bench (DB or BB) 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps
Flat or Incline DB Fly 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps
Seated DB Military Press 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps
Standing DB Side Laterals

I suggest alternating each week with starting with an incline or decline movement. Also alternate between doing DB and BB each workout.

  • is that all you do for shoulders bro?

  • @MsMattsully I do an upper lower split where I hit everything twice a week. For shoulders I do a total of 6 sets for the entire week. Shoulders get so much work on pushing and pulling movements that I don't think a lot of other work is necessary.

  • @CampbellFitness ohh ok bro thye look good are you all natural in your 15 year training?

  • @MsMattsully Sure am. If I weren't I'd expect to be bigger!

  • Does the chest-flys giving width to the chest?

  • @b0nkie070 That's the general thought. For my chest routines I usually like to do a pressing movement followed by a fly.

  • @Electric1011 I'm on another 3 day split now (DC training) but generally speaking I like 4 day ones best.

  • 3 day split is best

  • @JamAirsoft Exactly! Sets mean how many times you do the particular exercise.

  • hey, im a noob. when you say the sets, do you mean that you do yourr say 8 bench press reps, then rest, then do the 8 bench again, then rest, then do the 8 bench again, or do you mean do all exercises in order, have a rest, then do another set of them? Please reply!
