More rowing. Scapular retraction should be trained more than pressing or pulling vertically

This is my routine
5 day split

4 sets of Incline Dumbbell Press, 8-15 reps
3 sets of Bench Press, 8-10 reps
3 sets of Incline Flies, 8-10 reps
3 sets of Chest Dips until failure
3 sets of Barbell Curls, 8-10 reps
3 sets of Preacher Curls, 8-10 reps, then drop the weight to half, and push out another 8
(Do bench press first)
Tuesday: Legs/Calves

4 sets of Squats 8-10 reps
3 sets of Leg Press 8-20 reps
3 sets of Leg Extensions till failure
3 sets of Leg Curls 8-15reps
Calves are self explanatory, just use some of the machines till failure, a lot of reps, feel the burn.

4 sets of Deadlifts 8 reps
3 sets of long bar Rows 8-15reps
3 sets of barbell Rows 8-10 reps
3 sets of Hyperextensions 8-10 reps
(Deadlifts done first)
Thursday: Shoulders/Triceps

3 sets of bench , go for same weight and reps as Monday at least
4 sets of Shoulder Press, alternate with Barbell & Dumbell every week 8-15 reps
3 sets of Upright Rows supersetted with Lateral Raises 8-15 reps
3 sets of front raises 8-15reps
3 sets of Lying Rear Delt Raises 8-10 reps
4 sets of Pulldowns 8-15reps
3 sets of Skullcrushers 8-15 reps
Saturday: Full Body (strength)

3 sets of Deadlifts 8 reps
3 sets of Squats 8 reps
3 sets of Leg extensions 10-15 reps (light weight)
I ad light ab exercises into every day as to not overtrain them
>>
>>38620263
nah I'll do some rep work with front squats afterwards :)
>>
>>38618785
This is basically starting strength.

> Absolute beginner thinks they can do their own programming.

Just do starting strength.
>>
That's good man that's really good.
>>
>>38620288
Im on the same split, but a different order. And i do bis on leg and back day and tris on delt and pec day, feels more natural imo. But ill switch to push/pull/push/pull//rest/fullbody/rest to get some more sttength gains
>>
what do you guys think of this? do each block (a,b,c,d) - yu=our choice which number, once a week

Day A:
Squat 5x5
Bent-over Rows 5x5
OHP 5x5
Dumbbell Bench Press 5x5
Hammer Curls 5x5

--> not sure about: 1. The whole 5x5 apploed to everything (esp. curls & BO Rows)

Day B:
BB Bench Press 5x5
BB Rows 5x5
OHP 5x5
Pull-Overs 5x5
Deadlift 1x5
Standing Curls 5x5

--> Not sure about: 1. OHP on both days, but I love them; 2. Pull-Over effectiveness, but looking alright; 3. Deadlift 1x5 instead of more sets; 4. 5x5 for curls. I feel more reps are more effective for me
>>

Asking everyone who posted/planning to post


How long do your routines go? I mean, how long does it take you to finish your whole routine? Total gym time etc


If you had already posted your routine just quote them
>>
Usually about 1.25-1.5 hours. Maybe a single hour if I got all of my main movements done and really have nothing left in the tank for accessories.
I find that to be about the sweet spot balancing work/rest and volume/fatigue

>>
>>38618966
Hour a day 5 days a week, dont dismiss it, if you cant run for an hour thats fine, do elliptical or bike. Awesome cardio and skin gains, gives you a glow, if you dont need to lose weight thats also fine, add a meal a day to counteract.
>>
>>38622713
Yea 20-30 min of cardio gets you warm for lifting, some people dont do it first because it makes them tired
>>
>>38622713
It's fine...you seen The Rock's workout plan. He'll do 20min cardio before even lifting a weight. Yes, he's an outlier/pro with means and resources but why not do something everyday to get blood flowing and heart up before lifting, won't hurt.

I started my first weighted routine recently, I have access to 95lbs of weight+15lb bar (Don't know if people add the bar to the total weight), no other equipment, and no bench, so I've been trying to make do with what I have.

I'm skinnyfat going from a completely sedentary lifestyle of laying in bed playing video games all the time for about 11 years. (Age 25, started sedentary life at 14, weight 155 at 5'9)

xABAxABx

A
3x10 20lbs+bar squats
3x10 barbell curl same weight
3x10 military overhead press same weight

B
20 minutes brisk walk/jog

I started with only 10lbs+bar and felt like I wasn't working myself enough, but after adding the other 10lbs I've been having trouble getting past the first set of 10 OHP, I figured I would just stay with this routine until I can finish all 3 OHP sets properly before I increase reps or add any more weight.

I'm retarded, so any critique or tips? Changes I should make?

Do this every other day instead:

Do 3 sets of each exercise and try to keep the reps between 6 and 10, go as heavy as you safely can.

Squat
Stiff Leg Deadlifts
OHP
Weighted Dips > Dips > Weighted Push Ups > Floor Press > Push Ups (Pick one, these are in order of best to worst, if you're too weak for dips you obviously can't do them, push ups should be done strict with elbows close to your torso)
Yates Rows (this is trap work and upper back work, you don't need to go too strict on these)
Pull Ups > 1 Arm Row (Just bend over as much as you can with a straight back, support yourself on something and pull the end of the bar with one arm, do this only if you can't do pull ups, or are too weak)
Curls with your back against the wall

Do some skullcrushers on the floor after the dips or whatever chest movement you choose if you feel like it.
>>
>>38620180
Is that goku?
>>
>>38626741
First, I appreciate the serious response.

Second, I think all of this would be doable with what I have as long as I start at 3x6, though I will have to find a way to safely do dips (All of the chairs in the house are antique and rickety as fuck), and I probably shouldn't use my mattress to rest against for arm rows, not sure if the instability would increase risk of injuring myself. I can't do pull ups because well, I have nowhere to do them, and to be fair I probably couldn't do 3x6 of them after the rest of the exercises.

I'll probably stay with the light weight I'm using now, until I'm used to the motions. I've only been doing weighted exercises for about a week, before that it was body weight (mostly ab exercises with some squats thrown in) so I'm still being careful about not fucking things up.

35lbs is probably too much for a complete noob doing curls the very first time.
>>
>>38626900
I haven't had that much trouble with the curls, but I've been doing squats > Curls > OHP, and I've been finishing the first set of 10 OHP and then my arms are too dead to do the next set properly. I guess I could go down to 25 and only do 35 for the squats for a while.

Smushed my old 5 day routine into a 3 day so I have more time for university. Thinking of doing HIIT on rest days when I get more used to the intensity.
>>
>>38624706
probably because he's a beginner and can't do a proper set of 5-10 or whatever, so he does a few reps > rests > repeats until he hits 20
>>
>>38625503
push: switch dips and incline bench order
legs: switch laterals and ohp order
pull: deadlift>rows/pullups>shrugs is proper order
>>
>>38625925
i wouldn't do rows 3x5, especially bb rows. the high weight will make you cheat which will fuck your lower back up

also, back responds better to a higher volume, in my opinion
>>
>>38623961
Looks solid, don't fuck it up by program hopping, this will drive you well into advanced numbers if you stay with it
>>
The rep ranges are to work up from the minimum to the maximum and then up the weight. And limit rest time to 2-4 minutes.
Change up the exercises every 2-3 months.

Day A:
>Weighted Dip: 5 x 6
>Barbell Squat: 3 x 8-15
>Seated cable row: 3 x 8-12
>Good Morning: 3 x 8-12
>DB curl: 3 x 15

Day B:
>Squat: 5 x 6
>Overhead Pres: 3 x 8-12
>Chinup: 3 x 8-12
>Snatch grip hanging high pulls: 3 x 8

I like it but why dips insteads of bench?
And how light are light deadlifts?
>>
>>38632411

I have some shoulder injury. Basically it hurts for my shoulders to be pressed down into a bench. Dips and OHP don't give me issues, so I figured they were suitable substitutes.

Light deadlifts are about half of my weight for the 1x5 on B day. Should I be doing more? Less?

I've done PPLPPLx for a while but I thought I'd combine it with PHUL, so this is what I do now:

All 3x5

Tue
>Barbell Row
>Barbell Curl
>Concentration Curl
>Weighted Pull-ups

Everything 3x5 except squats 5x5. Then repeat Thu Fri Sat but 3x12 instead. Sundays I do neck, abs and wrists/forearms.

Either do some additional sets to failure, or throw in heavy pull downs. Could throw bent over rows into the A day.

Sorry it's been two days, on the off chance you're still checking this thread it's because pressing & vertical pulling both train internal rotation (as the pecs, front delts &lats are internal rotators), so to combat this you need to train the external rotators equally or more.

It would also help to frequently stretch pecs, delts, biceps, forearms & lats, and do some soft tissue work with a hockey ball &/or a lacrosse or golf ball

Current set up, to recover strength after a lay off

A
Front Squat Ramp to heavy 1-3 (rotate this, so singles, doubles & triples are each trained once per fortnight)
Press 2*5, 1*5+
Deadlift 1*10+ Alt with heavy 1-3 (so 1s,2s,3s each trained every 4 weeks)
Chins 2*6-8 or myo reps

B
Back Squat 3*5, 1*10+
Floor Press 3*5 alt with 1-3RM
Row 3*5, 2*8
Thick bar Dead 2*6-8

Typical AxBxAxx BxAxBxx structure

Am considering doing both pressing exercises both days (with reduced volume), thoughts?

https://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/10-week-mass-building-program.html

What do you all think of this routine for someone who is relatively new to working out? So far I'm about two months in and seem to be making good progress. I'm just wondering if I could be doing a better program and get better results.

6'1, 185, male, if that matters.
>>
All I do is one set to failure, once a week for all my lifts. I try to hit a certain rep goal, then add weight and do it again.

I do 2 lifts a day, 6 days a week, but it doesn't really matter how you do it, just that you make progress in reps and weight over time.

The funniest thing is that this simple method has made me strong as fuck over years but none of you will try it and everyone will call it retarded. Pearls/swine etc

3-4X EZbar carry, or overhead KB carry

The extra emphasis on my shoulders is because of having a torn labrum.

Sometimes I'll do my pressing first, because the power rack will often be taken.

Chinups until failturex5
Dips until failurex5

Then i sometimes add in skullcrushers either as an extra exercise or to replace curls. Pretty basic desu, don't really like any other excercises. Been doing this for about 3 weeks after just fucking around in the gym avoiding deadlifts and squats.

Have not done any max 1RMs, all these are at 5x5.

6ft(5,11 3/4) at 182lbs. My workout today felt really good, did a day A and i am confident i can add 10-15lbs to my squat, and 5-10lbs on my bench easily next workout. How shit are my stats, been working out for about 3 months but two of those were just doing everything but deadlifts and squat in my routine. Also not eating that well. Last 3 weeks is when i finally tried deadlifts and squat.

Just looking at what you're already using, I'd say tweak it to:

Box jumps 5x3
Squat 4x5
Back row 4x5

B:
Bench 4x5
Hang Cleans 5x3
Deadlift 4x5
Pull ups 3x8

You can throw the dips and whatever in as assistance on either day, doesn't really matter provided you keep it manageable and don't dump it all on one session. Pull back on the deadlift sets if they're really wrecking you but you can usually handle more volume than people say if you're not also squatting in the same session.

I'm not sure that these threads shouldn't be allowed. It makes no sense if you think about it for 5 seconds.

If you're a beginner you won't know how to design a routine, so you're better off picking a premade routine that has worked for thousands of people. There's no point critiquing your shitty routine and trying to fix it.

When you're at the stage when you need a personal routine, you probably know what works for you and what you need to work on, so you don't need critique.
>>
>>38640166
I kinda agree but I think especially people with home gyms or shitty gyms are very restricted in what exercises they can do, so they might want to switch it up. But routines don't require their own thread. This stuff should be in the QTDDTOT.
>>
>>38640166
should be allowed* fuck

Greyskull LP, basically, but with Rows instead of Chins since I'm a noob and can only do 3 chin-ups.

Added one bicep and one and triceps accessory, but do some pull-downs sometimes instead. Also ab-stuff and cardio on off-days. Daily push-ups.
>>
>>38640398

Chins are much more important than rows for all lifters for a multiple number of reasons:
* It's not that easy to keep form under heavy weight, which means:
* It's preferably performed in the 6-12 rep range where you increase reps each session rather than weight.
* 90% of people do them incorrectly.
* Rows are a lift for intermediate/advanced lifters.

Chins are just a better exercise overall.

Set a rep target for each set (aim higher than what you desire your real chin up number would be. if you would like to do 10 chinups, set this as 12 or even 15). Do as many real chin-ups as you can and then fill in the rest with negatives until you hit your target.

You'll slowly increase the number of real chinups you can do, while decreasing the negatives, but you will hit a wall where you can't increase your real chinups any longer, so you should land near your desired amount because you set your goal higher.
>>
>>38640472
Great tips, anon. Been doing daily chins + negs as per Greyskulls "frequency method" but forgot to mention that. Rows have helped though, I feel like my form is OK, but it does get harder as it gets heavier so I need to drop them soon.

Is this 'Starting Aesthetics' routine legit?

>>38641566

>>38644438

>>38618889
lol, no.

when bill Starr wrote the strongest shall survive, his program was based around both strength and conditioning for football athletes, hence why everything was done in a circuit. Focus was on bench for most athletes, and squats and cleans for all. Also injury recovery and prevention are extensively covered.

As for his program, warm ups count and are included with the top set. Even though rip was highly inspired by Starr, to say he stole it just shows how ignorant you are. I doubt you've looked into either program past a simple little exercise chart.
