I realized that "3 Days On" means 3 days of training, then at least one day off. That's why in the book The Ultimate Isometrics Manual, the schedule has workouts for Days 1-3, then Day 4 as an off day, before repeating the cycle of days. The book does say that if training 3 days in a row is too hard to recover from, then add one or more rest days to your schedule. With that in mind, I scheduled 4 workouts for this week.
Monday - Day 1
Shoulder Press
Front Raise
Drag Curl
Tuesday - Day 2
Regular Deadlift (high angle)
Zercher Squat
Calf Raise
Wednesday - Off
Thursday - Day 3
Rear Shrug
Hinged Tricep Kickback
Seated Row
Friday - Day 4
Shoulder Press
Front Raise
Drag Curl
This week was more about learning all the exercises that were new to me, than training hard to stimulate muscle growth. I spent more time and effort searching for good chain settings and body positioning than really burning the muscles. It's the first week, so it can't be helped.
