Hello /fit/

>routine rate thread.

How is this for a full body workout? I can workout 3 times a week. I did sl for a while, got strong but I got injured. I got back to a 3 day split (AxBxCxx) because I couldn't Squat or Deadlift. Now I'm on this full body workout, which works a lot better then a 3 day split for me. I would like to know if it's programmed well. I came up with it myself. Fuck squatting three times a week.

I train for both strength and hypertrophy.

I must add that I'm an intermediate lifter.

>>38792682

It isn't really telling us much. You've got a nice list of exercises (although personally I think that wide-grip pullups are trash for the most part) but that's about it.

It's SL without deadlifts. Just do SL.
>>
>>38793200
It has deadlifts in it. Reason I do them as the first exercise is that I can do a bit more volume that the 1x5 in sl.

Ive done SL on a cut and TM on a bulk.
Currently am T rex with fat and some muscle which wants to cut slowly or eat at maintenance cause fuck the cut/bulk meme
Looking for something 3 days a week, squat 2 or less days a week with main lifts + some accessories for upper body.
Would this work? AxBxCxx

Bench 3-4 x 5
Squat 3-4 x 5
dl 3-4 x 5
row 3-4 x 5
Curls 4 x 8-12
some tricep exercise

Bench 3 x 10
incline bench 3 x 10
Pendlay row 3 x 5
t bar row 3 x 10
db curls 4 x 8-12
lateral rises 4 x 8-12
arnold press 4 x 8-12
some tricep exercise

Ohp 3-4 x 5
squat 3-4 x 5
Sumo dl 3 x 5
db shrugs 4 x 8-12
some calf exercise

This is smth I came up with so far. I might change it ofc.
I could also do C 1x5 like TM to try and make new 5 rep maxes but with my diet Ill probably not lift heavier and I dont care that much about lifting heavy right now to begin with.
For core I do planks at home.

any good ohp specialization programs? i want to press bw
>>
>>38798996
Do presses 3x5 with heavy load 2x a week, do light presses (like 2/3 of the load) 4x a week. No smart trick, just put your deltoids to work. Btw, strict form is very important in this case, so you do not rely your pecs instead of deltoids.
>>
Can I have opinion's on my program, please.

Monday (Chest+Front Delts+Biceps)
Bench Press 4x4
Incline Bench 3x8
Cable Flyes (down) 3x12
Peck Deck 1x15
Front Delt Raise 2x12

Wednesday (Quads+Hamstrings+Calves+Abs)
Squat 4x4/4x8
SLDL 3x10
Leg Press 3x10
Calves 5x15
Leg raises 3x10
Planks 3x2min

Thursday (Chest+Back(thickness)+Delts
OHP 3x5
Chest Dip 3x6
Cable Flyes (up) 3x12
Lateral Raises 5x12
T-Bar Row 3x8
Cable Seated Row 3x12
Shrugs 3x15

Friday (Arms)
Here I just do short 30-40min workout for arms, just getting good pump and trying diffrent things for them

Saturday (Core)
Deadlift 3x3 or RPT (1x5, lower the weight and 1x8)
Hyperextension
Leg Raises
Side planks etc.

So yeah there is shit like "arm day" because I dont want to train 6 days a week superhard while natty, I believe that is smart. I know that it seems like not enough legs, but If I do too much them in one workout, they cramp like hell, So I do decent amount on "leg day" and then I have a deadlift day, where I sometimes do some leg extension/curls too. Its enough for me.
I fucking love this program and I like doing it, so even if its not the best in the world, would this be still good one, or could I get alot better gains doing something else?
My 1RM stats: bench 100kg squat 145kg highbar ATG and deadlift 200kg

They end up having less lat usage than most other forms of pullup/chinup and more rotator cuff stress. If you're mostly doing pullups to build your lats, that's a minor problem.

Alternate between volume, recovery and heavy for main lifts:
Volume is 3X8.
Recovery 2X10.
Heavy is working my way up to a PR attempt, usually: 5X60%, 5X80%, 3x90%, 1Xprevious pr + 2%.
End up setting new PR for each lift once every two weeks, which comes up to a theoretical improvement of 67% per year which serves me just fine as intermediate.

Accessories:
For squat day: Side laterals, lat pulldowns, skullcrushers, front squats.
For dead day: Incline DB bench, DB rows, BB curls, weighted GHD.
Usually keep it down to 1X12, 1X8 for each accesorry and superset it with the compounds but only after the relevenat lift is done.

not bad. I'd move dips to A and chinups to B to avoid the rows interfering with the chinups, and the bench interfering with the dips. swimming is good. consider alternating weeks :

>>38807233
rest time?

A:
2 dumbbell clean and press's
1 db clean and press
1 hand db swing
2 db clean and push press
1 db clean and push press
1 db clean

Start at a super light weight, do 2 or 3 reps of each exercise in that order. That's 1 "round" Add weight each round until I begin to max out on things like clean and presses, then eliminate the lifts I max out on. Eventually just left doing dumbbell swings and 1 hand cleans as those lifts allow the heaviest weights

B
Squat 4x6
1 quad accessory
Curls, calves, abs for a few sets

A is done Monday's and Friday's b is done wendesdays

>>38807955
Based on heart-rate. If I have an iso after a compound set then I let my BP go down to about 120 before doing it (if it went that high,) then I wait for it to drop down to approximatley rest rate before my next compound set. It's usually Compound> 30s rest> iso> 4-5min rest> compound.

I feel like 2 days deadlift and 2 day squatting is enough. I also sprint and cardio and I dont want my legs sore. When I stop progressing I will maybe add more legs. My frequency is still twice the normal PPL. MAybe I just will do more volume.
>>
>>38808298

What is overtraining? Do you really 'wear' down your muscles? If I go to the gym and do like 5 reps for sets of 40 with 3 minute rests, I would eventually not be able to lift it? I'm gonna try this sometime while bringing food.
Maybe the higher volume the faster your muscles deteriorates. Or it's just a myth, who knows?

>If I go to the gym and do like 5 reps for sets of 40 with 3 minute rests, I would eventually not be able to lift it?
Sets of 40 is pretty much endurance training and not proper anaerobic exercise. You could keep it up for a long time if your cardio-vascular endurance is decent. But yeah eventually you'd fail - just like if you run long enough at one point your muscles simply stop working. Taking food with you will help but only to a point, glycogen reserves can only be replenished at about 50% the rate they are used up by decent intensity exercise - you're only prolonging the inevitable. Not to mention that your CNS will give out at some point due to not being able to generate action potentials anymore.

But let's take a more reasonable example of what we are talking about in the context of anaerobic training:
You do bench press on monday and want to do it again on wednesday. So there is a 48 hour period inbetween.
Now 48 hours is usually the maximum time that protein synthesis is elevated following training. If you applied too much stress on the muscle it won't have time to repair itself let alone get stronger - you'd be weaker on wednesday than you were on monday. And even if your muscles recover, there is still the possibility that your CNS didn't.

Here's a chart that explains it nicely.

The reason that people say that there is no such thing as overtraining is because it is true in one case: people who use steroids - take enough roids and recovery will almost never be an issue. They even change that whole "48h protein synthesis" maxim. It's a whole 'nother ballgame and hence why natty principles don't apply to them and vice versa.
>>
>>38808565
Honestly, if you're that new to lifting I'd just stick to something basic and proven. PPL is not ideal for you in that case. Look up GSLP, it's pretty decent for beginners or RP begineers BB routine or something like that.

Need help with Greyskull. Was doing the basic programme with two minor accessories. Could not do Chins because I was a weak-ass noob, and not Dips either for the same reason.

Now I'm stronger and want to add Chins and Dips, but I'm wondering: do I add them as 3x5 "main lifts" the way Phrak suggests in his version, or as 2x6-8 accessories, the way Johnny Pain suggests in the actual Greyskull book. Does it even matter?

Also, one of the accessories I've been doing so far is V-handle pulldowns; do I stop doing that now that I can do Chins? JP seems to suggest in the book that V-handles are just to build you up to proper Chin-ups.

alright, thank you

I read somewhere wide grip pullups are dangerous for your shoulders anon. You should check that out. Other than that it seems like a solid routine, sets and reps?
>>
Opinions, trying to get back into it:

Workout plan:
A
Squat 5x5- 2 warm up 3 max
Bench 5x5- 2 warm up 3 max
Rows 5x5- 2 warm up 3 max
triceps (pulldowns) 3x8
Back extensions 3x8
Pull ups 3x8
calves
Wrists
abs

B
Deadlift 3x5- 2 warm up 1 max
OHP 5x5- 2 warm up 3 max
Lateral raises 3x8
Chins (weighted) 3x5
Biceps 3x8-12
dips 3x10
calves
wrists
abs

typically 1-3mile warmup at the start.

Thanks, very informative!
My rest periods are 2 days, than 3 days/weekly as mentioned in my routine.

What volumes are "too much" when you go into fatigue? Are DOMS related to proteinsynthesis and recovery? DOMS lasts longer than the recovery right?
>>

They are taxing for your rotary cuff. The same way your biceps are taxed when you do pull-movements, say you do rows, deadlifts, pull ups, shruggs etc, your bicep gets used every exercise, but the rotorary cuff aren't as durable as the biceps and are often under-developed when people start lifting..

BP and OHP alternate
Rows are Pendlay
The two assistance exercises depend on the press I do
I dont know if I should switch to pullups, I can just do 4.

>What volumes are "too much" when you go into fatigue?
There are ballpark figures, but you need to see for yourself how much you can handle. In general, you want to do no more than 30 reps per exercise - even less if you use heavy loads (high intensity.) There are exceptions to this but a beginner should start out at or under this range - if you're doing more you're either using too little weight or are about to burn yourself out. As far as total training volume is concerned - keep it below the point where you are completely drained, that generally means keeping your workout to under 2 hours and only doing heavy compounds for about 1-1.5 hours. Again, this is very general.

>Are DOMS related to proteinsynthesis and recovery?
No. DOMS is merely a reaction of your body to unusual stimulus, it is not an indicator regarding recovery. It happens when you do a movement you're not used to or use intensity or volume that you haven't used before or in a long time. It usually doesn't happen after you've gotten used to your current training regimen. DOMS is distinct to soreness or fatigue, both of which can happen even if you're used to your programme - but they are generally of little concern unless they are accompanied by loss of energy or strength which lasts past the recovery period.

>DOMS lasts longer than the recovery right?
As I said, DOMS is not an indicator of anything other than how accustomed your body is to how you are training. More/less of it is not good nor bad. The idea that DOMS means you did a good job is founded on the scientifically disproven hypothesis of "muscle confusion."

is PPLx for a natty?

seems like a bit too much volume.

Hey guys, quick question.

Will doing arm isolates any difference in my case? I've been on stronglifts for 2 months now, then I '''switched''' to this.

A
- OHP 4x5
- Squat 4x5
- Diddly 2x5
- Dip 3xF
- Chin up 3xF

B
- BB row 4x5
- bp 3x5
- Squat 4x5
- Pullover press 4x5
- Pull ups 3xF
+ random ab work

Is this routine good for now? I'd really like bigger arms, but I don't want to do accessories that won't do anything.
>>
>>38810001
>symmetricstrength.com
huh thanks. It does seem like abit much I figured might as well add the stuff if I can do it to help me out. My upper body is particularly weak. Any suggestions to make it more productive/efficient?
>>
>>38809996
It's doable, but usually not 100% ideal: you train your whole body less than twice a week - might as well do PHUL or another U/L split. Still lot's of natties like to use it; and doing something you enjoy means you're more likely to actually do it, and that is the most important thing on any routine.

stop wasting time if ur doing all dumbbells, start doing dumbbel clean and presses, push presses, snatches, cleans, and swings, all one handed and 2 handed variations
>>
>>38809840
Switch the lateral raises and the db rows. You already train lats during pullups day so switch it to the day that you aren't training rows. And since you're already training lateral delts with ohp, move it over to the other day that you aren't Training latetal delts. That way you get a 3x a week frequency for these muscles.

AxBxAxx

A days:
Bench 3x6, once 3x6, do 6x4 paused. Once 6x4 paused, add weight, work to 3x6

On 3x6 days, do 2 back off sets to failure. -10% for set 1, -20% for set 2.

Squat: 2 sets, one set 4-6, drop 5-10%, do 6-8, then 2 cluster sets at that weight, one minute of rest between.

pullups and dips, rotating between total # reps (50 in fewest # sets), sets of 5 till i cant do 5, and 2 sets to failure.
Facepulls 3-5x10, cable work for rotator cuffs

B day:

OHP alternating 3x6 and reverse pyramid 4-6,5-7,6-8
Close grip bench, paused reps, reverse pyramid style, 4-6, 5-7,6+, last set clustered for 2 additional sets with one minute reat between.

Didlylifts alternating 1×5, and same weight as complete 1x5 for doubles for as many sets as possible, 6+ sets before considering adding weight.
Cable rows 3-5x8-12
Curls for the girlz
Ab work

Recovering from a back injury, some days im fine, ither days i can barely walk, on a good day i can squat 275+ for reps, or deadlift 315+, bad days, can barely do bodyweight squats or lean over. Zyzz be with me in my time if need.

i'm doing icf 5x5. Just the routine. I'm not following any of autistic blaha's advice. Is the routine itself acceptable?

Also, when squatting i got a dull paint in my quad tendon on my left leg near my groin. It has taken nearly three weeks for it to go away, and it's almost there. Any idea what causes this? I try to go deep on my squats and I'm also a novice, so I may have over exerted myself doing 90% of my max rep as my work set for a 5x5, which really didn't feel difficult but in retrospect was probably retarded.
