ROUTINE THREAD

Would a 2 week TM work with Bill Starrs OHP program? So something like

Week1
Monday
>squat 5x5
>OHP 6x3
>clean pull/RDL
>weighted dips

Wednesday
>front squat 3x3
>OHP 6x3
>chins
>weighted dips

Friday
>squat 1x5 PR
>OHP 6x3
>deadlift 3x3 (or something like that, not PR weights)
>weighted dips

Week 2
All same except
Friday
>squat 3x3 (not PR)
>OHP 6x3
>deadlift 1x5 PR
weighted dips

Idea is to not shit myself with every lift on Friday, but still do some reps so muscles don't atrophy or anything

Are you going for /owl/ user?

Not yet. Just wanna stronger press for now. Can't afford owl.

Dunno, looks alright on principle. Why no variation on the OHP rep range?

rate:

squat
benchpress/ohp
deadlift
weighted dips
chinups

4 week concurrent split that i wrote and am running. do not attempt this urself i wrote it for me specifically and u will not even last the first third of a volume day workout

I'm following bills program. So start with 3x3 ohp, work up to 6x3, increase weight and start again. Sorry should have been more clear about that.

Whole idea is to increase weight slower than regular TM.

Every workout? That's actually what I'm doing with SS right now.

i'm gonna try putting in barbell rows next time

then you're not doing SS

Don't really have a routine - just go in and do what I feel based on how I'm feeling.

That's now what SS is.

Man, you must be beastmode. I wouldn't even last the first third of a volume day workout!

I'm trying pendlay rows instead of power cleans. Fucking hate them. So hard to keep form at higher weights.

A
OHP 3x8
Chin ups 3xf
Tricep accessory 2x12
Lat raises 2x12
Rear delt flies 2x12
Hyperextensions 3x10
B
OHP 3x6
Dumbbel row 3x6
Bicep curls 2x12
Squats 3x5
C
OHP 3x4
Chin ups 3xf
Tricep accessory 2x12
Lat raises 2x12
Rear delt flies 2x12
Hyperextensions 3x10

I too want to get needlessly strong on OHP while neglecting bench and legs

Literally squatting and dipping 3 times a week

If you made this yourself, you're retarded. If someone else made it, they're retarded, and you're retarded for following it.

I'm in the same position as you are, trying to increase SQ, DL, OHP. Learning PC on the side. Good luck with OHP after 5x5 squats (TM a shit).

A
5x5 Squat
5x5 Bench
5x5 Row
3x8 Dips

B
5x5 Squat
5x5 OHP
1x5 Deadlift
3x8 Lat Pulldown
3x8 Curl

why would you need a strong bench when you can have strong ohp?

>not doing deadlift variation every day
many of you are trying
none of you will make it

Can I get some advice too? I'm basically doing Chest/Arms, Back/Shoulders and Legs, abs every now and then.

Chest:
-BP 4x8, 1x5
-Incline BP 3x8, 1x5
-Incline dumbbell BP 4x8
-Cable flyes 4x8
-Dips 4x8

Arms:
-EZ bar curls 4x8
-Alternating db curls 4x8
-Seated one arm curls 4x8
-Triceps rope pushdown 3x8, 1x till failure

Back:
-Deadlift 4x8
-Lat pulldown front & back 4x8
-Seated rows 4x8

Shoulders:
-Lateral raises 4x8
-OHP 4x8
-Shrugs 4x8
-Reverse cable flyes 3x8

Legs:
-Squat 3x8, 1x5
-Press 4x8
-Calf raises 4x8
-Leg curls 4x8
-Leg extensions 4x8

I've been doing this for almost a year now but should I change anything?

>Neglecting bench

And nothing of value was lost.

shieeet OP we are pretty much doing the same routine atm, I got it too from a thread a few weeks ago where the user posted some redpills.

nigger OHP is much more fun than bench and you can push yourself harder without having someones balls near your face. Also note that there's a dip as accessory and squat/dl/clean pulls/possibly light cleans before every press set

in case anyone wonders:

startingstrength.com/article/the_quest_for_a_stronger_overhead_press

All exercises in brackets are a week 2 variation, to give some variety and optimize muscle growth.

Exercises with +'s are compound movements and should be no more than 5x6 imo. Accessory exercises should be around 5x10-15

HERE WE GO!

CHEST

+Incline bench (+flat bench)

Decline db press (incline db press)

Incline dumbbell flys (cable flyes)

Db pullover

Finish off with 5x sets of decline push ups to failure.

BACK

+Deadlifts (+Bent over row)

+Weighted Wide grip pull-ups (+Weighted chin ups)

Db row (wide grip cable pulldown)

One hand cable row (straight arm pulldown)

ARMS:

+Weighted dips

Db kickback (skullcrushers)

Rope pulldown (overhead db arm extension)

+BB curl

Reverse grip BB curl (Hammer curls)

Concentration curls (preacher curls)

LEGS (2X A WEEK)

+Squats (rotate between high bar, low bar and front squats to hit your legs from all angles and ensure even development.) [

Db lunges (BB lunge)

Leg extension (+leg press)

Lying or seated hamstring curl (+RDL's)

Seated and standing calf raises

Calfs are a problem area for most, until very recently I was the same. Do the following and they will grow:

50 rep sets with light weight. Rest for 60 secs. Super set with standing calf raises and repeat 5x. Focus on squeezing the calf at the top of the movement and don't 'bounce'. Control your descent and explode up.

note it's important to do both seated and standing variations of calf raises as they work different calf muscles. Standing hits the gastrocnemius and seated works the soleus.

SHOULDERS + CORE:

+Overhead BB press (+seated DB OHP)

Upright rows (face pulls)

Lateral db raise (cable lateral raise)

Front db raise (cable front raise)

Bent over db lateral raise (bent over cable lateral raise)

Ab wheel

hanging leg raises

Weighted plank.

i do a similar thing but i do the following:
>Back/biceps/abs
>Chest/Triceps/shoulders
>Legs
>yoga/stretching/mobility exercises
>back/bis/abs
then take a weekend off

i do shoulders with chest because mechanically i find that if my shoulders ache from the day before, its harder to get the most out of my outer pecs. mon/fri abs i throw in as a 'rest set' because i use a gymnastics routine thats hard as fuck for about 3 minutes.

Stretching i try to do with a spare 5 minutes here and there all the time, but having a day for it is nice.
fair play 6 weeks later my joints ache like fuck but improvements are rapid. taking a week of green tea and veg to repair myself then back to it.

also yes, every other set mix up high reps/low weight with high weight/low reps to avoid plateauing.
challenge yourself to new tasks and exercises to keep growing

Good stuff m8. Making decent progess?

Why not add shrugs or something involving moving your traps on back day?

those are parentheses, not brackets

I hate how everyone get's those confused

faggot

I'm thinking of running Candito's LP strength/hypertrophy program. Anyone have any experience with this? Look good?

also, how in hell do you squat and deadlift on the same day?

a bit of a lack of ohp in that routine but you can supplement it in the optional exercises i guess
it's a bit tiring but you don't do too much else on heavylower day so it isn't too crazy.
i love that routine, been doing it for a couple of months now. all kinds of gainz

Beginner lifter here

cardio on off days

My 1rm's for bench/squat/dl are about 240pounds/340/415
Ive been doing some sort of ppl a few months back then switched to a pseudo split where i do squats/bench/deadlifts with a few accessories on those days. Problem is, i gas out too hard when i do squats and deadlifts and sometimes barely have enough energy to do the rest of the accessories id like to do.

And im still kinda skinny imo (about 170 pounds). Id like to move onto an actual routine where i go for strength/size(ish).

So basically im looking for something that includes a bench/squat/deadlift but doesnt have to be included everyday (but id like to every week). So i've been eyeing up the sticky and the 5/3/1 looks pretty nice. Anyone have any experience with this program? Is it good for muscular hypertrophy?

Is that Babylovers SS?

Pretty much any routine like SS, SL, or Reg Parks works well for beginners. As long as you're doing compounds to essentially wake the nervous system up and use more muscle for the movements.

Look up Hepburn method.
Mon:
Squat intensity
Deadlift intensity
Squat volume
Deadlift volume

Tues:
Bench intensity
OHP intensity
Bench volume
Deadlift volume

Thurs and Fri, just essentially repeat mon and tues workout with 1 extra rep.

example,
Mon:
Squat 'heavy' 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
Deadlift same scheme as above
Squat not as heavy 6 6 6

Thurs
Squat heavy 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3
Deadlift same
Squat not as heavy 6 6 7

Once you get all 8 sets 3 reps or 3 sets 8 reps, up the weight a bit

That's the general gist of it. He has other programs which i cbfed typing

Posted this in /plg/ before, they told to me post here:
Day 1
Deadlift
Benchpress
Cable/barbell rows
Overhead press
Pull up

Day 2
Squats
Calf raises
Abs exercises
Side abs(?) exercises

All 5x5 except abs.
Alternating between these two, 3x per week.
Had good experiences with high volume programms, but have no longer time for like 3000 isolation exercises. Tried to make this programm for now with more compound exercises to keep it short.

Rate pls and post suggestion for improvement.

sweet ill give it a run. I guess the OHP goes in the basic "Shoulder Exercise" category.

Why no pullups?

Please rate, it's my first attempt at making a "Powerbuilding" routine.
I wanted to combine it to make it a sort of "Bench + OHP" day and a "Squat + Deadlift" day.

After 4 weeks, you up them all to 4 sets, and do that until your at 6 sets. Thoughts?
