Muscle Groups

When working out one must give all muscle grounds equal attention. Often some groups are neglected because people don't see them as important when compared to other ones like biceps, even though some would argue triceps are a more integral part of the arm seeing as it accounts for more mass on one's arm. The main muscles one should focus on are biceps, triceps, shoulders, chest and legs. Within these groups lie more in depth muscle regions that one must stimulate in order to seek the desired results.

For example, in your shoulder region there are 3 parts; the front, side, and rear delt areas. Doing a simple shoulder press will stimulate each area, but it wont get that recommended stimulation that rear delt flies or side delt raises could accomplish. This is just a slight insight on one of the groups so it is recommended you look up more on each muscle group and adapt your routines in order to better suit these groups and their intricate areas.

When I first started working out I was lucky enough to have a partner who knew what he was doing. He taught me the ropes to working out. I learnt the efficient way of doing things that worked all my muscle groups in a good amount of time. We would try various exercises, changing up upo every couple of week seeing what we liked and what we didn't like. Not every exercise will appeal to you so find something that will appeal to you.

Now I can't say my exercises are the only way to go about doing things so I'm leaving it up to you to tell me what you prefer and how do you manage to hit every muscle group? How do you split up your days?
