4 Day Beginner Weight
Training Workout

The 4 day beginner weight lifting routine is basically a 4 day spilt which can either see your entire body being training over the course of a week or similar. Below i have several variations of this split for you.



Your training routine should be designed to hit each of the muscle groups, by doing this you will be well on your way to creating more muscle size and strength in no time.




4 Day Weight Lifting Routine (example 1)


Monday: Chest / Back
Tuesday: Legs
Wednesday: OFF
Thursday: Shoulders / Traps
Friday: Arms


The above 4 day beginner weight training routine split sees you training the body over the period of one week. This is great for beginners and intimidate trainers and it really legs you focus on training each body part and making the most out of it.


With weight training exercises it would look like the following:


Chest/ Back
Flat Bench Press
Incline Dumbbell Flyes
Bent over barbell row
One arm dumbbell rows


Legs
Squats
Deadlifts
Single leg calf raises


Shoulders/Traps
Shoulder press
Laterals
Upright Rows
Shrugs


Arms
Barbell Curl
Reverse Curl
Skull Crushers
Bench Dips


Beginners: 3 sets of 8-12 reps per exercise
Intermediate: 5 sets of 8-12 reps per exercise.


You can change the exercises to suit your own needs as well as the days the workouts are performed on.


Sets and reps
Do 3 sets of 8-12 reps per exercise. Your last rep should be difficult so make sure you are using enough weight to fail on the last rep, if you think you can push one more rep out then do it, don't just give up for the sake of it. Use proper form with strict movement for each exercise.



Tempo

The tempo for each lift of this beginners weight lifting routine is going to be 303. By 303 i mean take 3seconds to lift the weight 0seconds pause and the top of the movement and take 3seconds to lower it again. This is for all the exercises in this routine.

As you can see the above 4 day beginner weight training split totally splits up the body parts and trains them at different angles throughout the week.


Make sure you warm up fully before you start your weight training for beginners workout. You can get your blood pumping by doing interval spot running or similar if working out at home or treadmill in the gym. make sure you fully stretch out your muscles before and after training to prevent injury.


It is important to increase the amount of weight you lift per exercise per week. This will insure a steady strength increase and your workout will always challenge you to lift more.
