Your body does a better job at adapting to heavy loads than you think. Its all about starting light and working your way up.

would add squats on your first A day so you're squatting twice a week and deadlifting once. would also add OHP to your B day and C day, then remove it form your A days so you just bench on A days, it'll give you a lot more volume for pressing overall and you can probably handle it fine.

>>39808767
Don't do that intensity with deads after squats. Do rather romanians or SLDL with more volume.

>>39808272
Seems like fun. Do cardio in your rest days or at least a couple of hours after lifting. Cardio may rise cortisol levels after a heavy workout.

Saturday:

Lat Pulldown 3x5
OHP 3x5
Deadlift 1x5

I currently do 177.5 on the Lat Pulldown and 107.5 on OHP. Added deadlifts recently, so only at 105.0, but I expect that to gain fast.

I'm thinking about adding a second light day during the week:

Push-ups 3x5 (done using the barbell and rack using weight vest progressive overload)
Squats 3x5
Deadlifts 1x5

What does /fit/ think?

>>39813598
Depends on how much volume and intensity you have in your routine and how much you're eating and sleeping.
If you're a fairly new lifter like you said, you're eating at or above maintenance, and you're getting a good amount of sleep, then you could get by with one or two days of rest a week.
On the other hand, if you've been lifting a while and you're running a routine with a high volume and/or high intensity, then you'll need to take three days a week off or at least easy or you'll burn out and potentially hurt yourself.

I don't really know how to answer this one, I guess I can do a variation with rows where I use a wider grip.
>calves
pretty sure I don't need any calf isolation exercises as I'm training for strength.
>abs
read previous.
>tris,bis and grip
pretty sure bench, pull ups, chin ups, dips, push ups are enough for tris and bis, and I do farmer's walks from time to time so I'd say that's enough for my grip.
I'm only 6 months in btw, pretty new.

i just started lifting a month ago.


day 1:

bench press 5x5

dumbbell chest press 5x5

day 2:

deadlift 5x5

walking squat with weights three sets of walk front to back accross the gym floor

leg extension 3x8

leg press 3x8


day 3:

chins 3x8

bent over rows 3x8

assisted rows 3x8

is this fine for a noob ? i'm also thinking of cutting off my anti psychotic meds slowly to speed up metabolism. have switched meals for oatmeal and am eating a lot more chicken and pretty much switched pasta out of my diet entirely. appreciate any tips for a beginner


also weigh 90 kg pretty well built with wide shoulders but have gained way too much eating this shitty medicine.

>>39814349
Unironically, not trying to meme on you, machines really are a total waste for morst folks. check out Starting Strength. Can't really go wrong with it as a beginner.

Also be sure to eat a lot, and not eat garbage. Whole milk is your friend. Get rest. Look up form videos and work hard to get it right. It will pay off later, and better form means quicker gains.

Starting Strength legit changed my life (for the much better)

No don't worry bout that, i keep my ego pretty tamed and am always geared towards actually listening and improving. i'm getting on starting strength in two days let's go
>>
>>39814424
If you do starting strength, no. Stick to what's on there, and don't add ancillary exercises. Rope pulldown is fine for other routines though, but not my thing
>>
>>39814435
That's the right attitude for fitness.

Other day some crossfitter fag was doing deadlifts and rounding his back horribly with 135, asked if I could give advice and he said "I know what I'm doing, asshole." Have fun in snap city
>>
>>39814418
Way too much shit per day. Try to keep between 3-6 exercises in a single day, and do that day at least twice in a 7 day period. I suggest you look at a PPL. 3 day split, mostly compounds and some accessories.

Despite what others will day, I also suggest only doing one of your big 3 (squat, dl, bench) in a single day, and keep one day of rest between squats and deads. Like pull, push, legs, rest, repeat.
>>
Day A (all 3x8):

i actually think that's a cultural thing. This pride of people thinking they have something to defend when it comes to their craftmanship in any area is sickening, the average skilled individual in any area of life has this disturbing delusional way of judging his own skill in the terms of what is good and bad. I think it stems from our pop culture definition of "talent", people just want to believe in the magic pill of talent and the definition of that word is just so blown away by society that it's pretty much fetishized and bred into our consciousness. You'll find these people anywhere, trying to protect their egos while feeding themselves this story of them being way above their skill level and it just hurts them in the end.


true greatness is achieved from having well versed mentors, dedicated partners with good communication skills and practice and effort. fuck the magic pill

Just a heads up, your body will never be what you want it to be. You will never have your goal body, because as you approach closer and closer to your goal, your goal slowly starts to change without you noticing. Biggest MFs in the gym don't have their goal bodies.

2.5lbs total, so you add 1.25lbs to each side.
>>
>>39816292
Why do so many people have these 2 day splits that involve two sets of half the shit in the gym?

You aren't hitting the muscles enough. You do one set of deadlifts? One set? One. One set of deadlifts for a workout. Not to mention you can't even go ham on deadlifts if you tire yourself out from whatever the fuck you're doing to get a workout out of 3 sets of squats.

Aim for 4 separate exercises a day. Not 7. You are lacking in everything and excelling in nothing.
>>
>>39816425
I'm fairly strong and noticed it works better for hypertrophy than minimalistic routines. A lot of people fell for the "squats and deadlifts are enough for you core" meme and learned the hard way that not everybody can build the muscles without hitting them directly.
>>
>>39816355
Is it alright to add a 2.5 lb plate on one side of the barbell? My gym doesn't have 1.25 lb plates
>>
>>39816492
Others not succeeding does not make your routine any less shit.
>>
>>39817029
i've been doing that for months now. to be fair, I haven't made any gains in the past month because i've been busy, but when i put in some work i made crazy gains adding 2.5 per side for upper body and 5 per side for lower (including deads). i'd say it's fine.
>>
>>39816492
You have low volume, low frequency lifts. Your entire routine needs to be drastically changed. There's no way you're making progress with the routine you posted. If you want a PPL, do one. Or SS. Or a 4 day split (big 3+OHP have own days, add 3 accessories a day). Or SL. There are a load of effective programs you can slightly modify to meet your needs, but your program is garbage and needs to be trashed. You asked for help, this is help. You can still do core isolations, your routine is just bad. Please refer to starter routines because it is obvious you have no idea what you're doing. Best of luck :)
>>
>>39817107
the problem is, i've been making a tremendous progress with that routine and it worked for me much better than these meme routines such as SS :DD

also, what is inherently wrong with these routines? essentially they're compound lifts with a few accessory lifts thrown in. no particular emphasis on legs maybe? BP and OHP in one day?
>>
>>39813429
some, nothing crazy
>>39807825
add a upper back compound on day2 and you got yourself a good program
>>
>>39817259
>i've been making a tremendous progress with that routine
No you haven't, and you know how I know you haven't? Because your routine is shit. But let's go back into it, again, because fuck it.

>progress
>1 set of deadlifts every day you deadlift
>legs being completely subject to 3 sets of squats, 1 set of deadlifts, and 3 sets of calf raises
>Chest being completely subject to 3 sets of bench, flies, and MAYBE dips if you do them correctly
>Both bent over AND machine rows

If you can post a picture of yourself and prove me wrong, more power to you. However, if you're DYEL and have made minimal noob gains because you simply walked into a gym, then it's time for a change. You're doing a lot of low volume exercises in one day when you could be focusing on really hitting your most important exercises instead. You're wasting energy by treating accessories as if they're main lifts.

I ran out of noob gains.
Did SS for 5-6 months, switched to GSLP, now I have into a wall and even after deloading I struggle progressing.
I need more volume.

I can go 4 times max per week, so I think the best choice should be PHUL.
Candito's program seems to be basically phul and I see it often recommended so I guess I'm going in the right direction?
>>
>>39817313
>No you haven't, and you know how I know you haven't?

110kg rows and +30kg pullups are shit?

>Chest being completely subject to 3 sets of bench, flies, and MAYBE dips if you do them correctly

9 sets for chest 1,5 times a week versus 3 sets of BP 1,5 times a week and suddenly my volume is too low?

>Both bent over AND machine rows
Machine rows are quite supplementary, nothing too intense, I just like this exercise

>legs being completely subject to 3 sets of squats, 1 set of deadlifts, and 3 sets of calf raises

And that's enough, I know how it is to do squats + deads 3 times a week, legs blow up in size too fast. Different priorities mang.
>>
>>39817395
>110kg rows and +30kg pullups are shit
can you post a picture of your upper back? It's for r-research purposes...
>>
>>39817395
You do a max of 6 sets a week, 3 every other week. Where 9 sets 1.5 times a week comes from idk, your math is off.

Others do 10 sets a week. You do 110kg rows? You sure? Oh yeah, and 1 set a week of anything is low fucking volume.

I'm done trying to help, you want to argue instead of accept realistic advice then go ahead and fail. I'm done trying to help you, be my guest and argue with whomever else tries to help you. You are a new years resolutioner or crossfitter, who knows. Go ahead and fail.

>>39820279
Pretty good, although I'd suggest cutting down on the number of exercises in the Power Upper day - if your focus is increasing maximal power in your bench press and overhead press, having incline on the same day is probably unnecessary (and probably detrimental). One horizontal pressing movement is probably enough.

Best of luck, bro!
>>
>>39820744
Wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too much volume, man. I count 12 (twelve!) different movements on your "B" day.

If you try doing >6 different movements every gym session, you'll quickly learn to hate lifting. I'd recommend 6 movements per session as a hard upper limit.

>>
>>39825860
Allright, I'm trying to understand.

So it's better to hit the same muscle groups with different exercises?

Wouldn't different movements equal more gains for all muscle groups?
