How many days a week do you lift?

3 times a week, M/W/F, doing the SL 5x5 program and some circuit work on the T/T. Occasionally a run on saturday.

Feeling Veeky Forums famalam.

Currently running 6 days.

Pic related is next week.

I essentially do a ULxULxx split
Upper day one is ohp based
Lower day one is squat based
Upper day two is bench and row based
Lower day two is Deadlift based
I'm trying out Alsruhe's strongman program and it's pretty alright

do those sets include warmup reps? how long does it take you to get through a session?

I'll have 1-2 warm up sets before the listed sets for the 4 AMRAP (highlighted) sets, but that's it. Like for the squat day I'll do 135x5, 185x3 before starting 225x5.

I can usually get through stretching/warm up and the two listed lifts each day in 45-60 minutes. Then do accessories based on how I feel and how much time I want to spend. Squat day goes a little longer than the other days.

I find that once you hit your big set for the day the tailing sets go pretty quick. I spent way longer in the gym when I was doing TM.

That's cool. Thanks m8. I've been thinking about running a 6 day program and I really like the looks of yours.

Would recommend. I've had a lot of fun with it.

You can check out spreadsheets for a few versions of the program here.

4 days
I haven't actually split up my routine into days. I just don't like the idea of having to be limited to certain exercises on certain days. I guess I should try to do it soon. I just started lifting but I'm starting to get to the point where I need routine and discipline, because my gains are slowing down.

Is it bad to be doing shoulders on chest day?

I'm doing a basic PPL but I run shoulders/chest/tris then back/bi's/ then legs then rest.

I have no doubt it's doable, but is it fine for an extended period of time or am I just seting myself up to get injured at some point?
