Will I lose gains obtained on a bro-split over the last 4 years if I start doing a novice starting strength routine?

Some of them, maybe. It's easier to maintain than gain but there's still limits.

The question is why on earth you want to do a novice routine after four years.

I want to be stronger than I am now.

My bench/squat/deadlift are pathetic (because I never really trained them)

But I lift at home now, and I only have access to barbell/power-rack. No more meme machines for me to easy mode lifting on with a bro-split.

How pathetic are we talking here?

You might be better served by just throwing a few heavy sets on to the start of a higher volume approach than dumping your workload to like a fifth of what it was before.

I don't have any exact figures, because as I said, I've never really trained the lifts until recently because I've always used machines and strength-hammer plate loaded machines.


So far what I've gathered


Bench - 80kg x 8
Squat - 65kg x 8
OHP - 60kg x 8
Chin-Ups - 82kg x 10 *Bw*
Deadlift - ??????

I haven't started deadlifting yet because haven't set-up the platform for it, will have it ready by next week.

Pic related is my body as of a few days ago. 5'7 - 82kg.

I would like to get a 120kg bench, 160kg squat, 200kg deadlift.

You're unlikely to get to those numbers on a beginners routine, but it's definitely possible to get them over time.

If you are going to go back to a more beginner-ish approach I'd recommend doing something with more overall work and slightly less intensity. You need to build technique at sub-max weights rather than pushing too hard for PRs at the start. Strong + shitty technique is an easy way to hurt yourself.
