>don't have to wait for the bench
>Start the week off with my favorite workouts.

It's bliss user.

not him but I don't like working out on Sundays. I do love the emptiness of the gym though

Deadlifts are a lower body movement. Have one lower day per week with deadlifts as the main lift and a squat variant at higher volume and the other with squats as the main lift and higher volume deadlift variant. You also don't need all of those accessories. Pick 2 per lower body day and that'll be enough. Include ab work/hyperextensions(which are a glute/hamstring exercise) every so often. For upper body, do 2 main presses, one auxiliary press, 2 upper back movements and 1-2 accessories of choice.

No problem I ran something similar and saw pretty decent strength gains even though I did it while cutting.

I've been going to the gym for a solid two months straight. They're all exercises I remember from high school (+8 years ago) so I just put something together. Hitting the gym every day was the main goal. Now that its a habit, I was looking for suggestions, so thanks.

i'm a beginner

oh yeah also abs on rest days

If you want one that's already set out, SS is my preferred novice phase program, but Candito's Linear program is an U/L split that is similar to what I mentioned. It could use a bit more OHP volume but it's good for linear progression.

Day A
5x5 bench press
4x8 incline bench press
4x8 cable crossover
4x8 deccline cable crossover
3x8 pullover
5x5 ohp
4x8 lateral raise
3x8 upright row
3x8 triceps pushdowns
3x8 closegrip benchpress

Day B
4x8 wide grip lat pulldown
4x8 close grip lat puldown
5x5 barbell row
4x8 seated cable row
5x5 squats
3x5 deadlifts
3x8 lunges
4x8 leg curls
4x8 leg press
5x20 calf raise
3x8 biceps curls
3X8 hammer curls
3X8 shrugs

Been doing this for 4 months with great gains. Can do 1/2/2.5/2.75 . Basicly i merged strong lifts with push/pull. Generally it tooks 2 to 2.5 hours to finish. Oh and i do planks and hanging leg raises every other day.
Thinking of adding 1 more chest day. And do 4x8 brnch and incline that day and do sime hiit. So it will look like this ABxABxC

Would really appreciate some chiming in on this.

Look into Greg Knuckols 28 free programs. The intermediate 3 day high volume bench program may be what you're looking for.

this so much.

i do PPLPPLx (well actually LPPLPPx so i get a my rest day before legs half the time) and take Monday off because Mondays are shit.

Day a
Triceps extension 4x12
Alternated biceps curl 4x10
Palms in shoulder press 4x8

Day b dumbbell squats
Dumbbell squats 2x15
30 russian twists
30 weughtend crunches
30 cycling abs
30 elbow to knee abs

Give me some advice on the routine
And i would like some chest exercises but i dont have a bench should i do push ups
Also should i do less sets and more reps for abs

>3x8 Wrist Curl

What a waste of time, when will you DYEL faggots learn? Simplify your program and just fucking lift.

Do compound movements and you won't have to bring a log book to the gym and look like a total faggot.

Squat, Deadlift, Benchpress

Would it matter if my routine consist of 3 or 4 consecutive days? Or do you need to space it out between rest days?

It depends on how hard you go at it everyday.

I mean each day would be targeting different muscle groups if that makes a difference but i dont know how to explain how hard im going

if you are doing compounds give me ONE good reason not to do wrist curls.

>5 mins is too long waa

LMAO SS shills in full effect.

Enjoy your shitty Zack tier physique

beginner here, been going to the gym after work with Veeky Forums coworker who's been showing me what to do.

just got switched to nights, no gym mentor anymore. i ordered starting strength off amazon, i know you guys think its shit though.

any suggestions for a new guy? I'm going to have to Google and youtube most of the lifts you suggest

Why do squats and deadlifts the same fucking day?

Starting strength or stronglifts 5x5 are good places to start if you want to get strong.

Just make sure you read the material and watch form videos. Form is everything.

i'm kinda new to lifting, so tell me please what do you think about my schedule

it's shit. You have zero form of progression planned, and you have a retarded amount of volume for someone new. Those are the two biggest ones, beyond that you do plenty of unnecessary shit and your whole program just shows you have no idea what you're doing and should follow some program made by someone who does.

a friend of mine gave me this schedule, what do you suggest? and what's unnecessary in it?

I'm not but basically everything is unnecessary. Do heavy compound lifts with a few accessories, and make sure you have plenty of time to rest. Do SS or SL 5x5, and add chins to day A and dips to day B. Don't use machines, they are generally inferior to using free weights.

I'm gay.

literally nothing wrong with
