>click on sticky >I don't want to become some huge bodybuilder freak, I just want to get in better shape and look better. Should I read this?
I DO though. I don't give a fuck about strength, I want to reach my natural limit of muscularity as efficiently as possible. How do I get there? What routine progression should I follow? Where's the sticky for this?
Show me one person who achieved that picture doing SS, stronglifts, ICF, 5x5, 5/3/1, or the Texas Method.

To develop all your muscles, you must isolate them all.
Split your workouts according to musclegroup. The muscle groups are: arms, legs, shoulders, back, chest, and you will do 3 sets of 10 reps on MEDIUM weight, so that is the DOABLE weight for you, not too light, not too heavy, but hard to do.
Here was my starter routine
Arms day: Bicep isolation curls seated Hammer curls Bicep curls standing Two handed Triep extension 1 db behind the neck Tricep extension seated Tricep press cable Barbell curls standing 21s Over the head rope tricep extension Preacher curls Reverse preacher curls French press
Shoulder day:
Lateral raise Shoulder press Military press Overhead press Dumbell press Seated behind the leg rear flys Roman salutes Arnold press Plate shrugs Db shrugs Straight bar shrugs Monkey rows
Leg day:
All the leg machines Deadlift with trap bar ( it focuses on legs) Front squats Calf isolations This is the day to do ab workouts at the end.
Lat pull down Pull-ups Close grip lay pull down Wide grip lay pull down Seated rows Close grip seated rows Wide grip seated rows Lawnmowers Straight at deadlift High rows Low rows Bent over rows T bar rows Back extension
This routine will will slaughter every muscle in your body.
DONT FORGET TO DO 10 MINUTES OF CARDIO EVERY OTHER DAY. STRONG HEART=WELL FED MUSCLES.

No one you childish dick, you start off with an LP porgram and then if you wish so you can move up to a bodybuilding routine. Learn to fucking read.

Name one person who looks halfway decent who ever started with a 3x a week linear progression.

The sticky is bullshit, i wouldnt do any of the workouts there. You just need to utilize progressive overload. Lift for high volume, eat in excess as im sure you know. Creatine will make your muscles retain water giving the appearance of being bigger.
Kayden White
don't you need a rest day? and it seems weird to wait nearly a whole week to hit chest or legs again.
Luke Fisher
the powerlifters and dyels meme it, but you can do PPL. It's a good enough split where you get decent frequency and won't turn into a t-rex.
also dont do this is a fucking awful routine. Its bait but you probably dont know since youre a dyel. Anyway above all else make sure youre doing the compounds (bench, OHP, squats, deadlifts) and you'll be fine.

>You just need to utilize progressive overload. Lift for high volume Would a routine from pic related be alright or is that too much? Would I need to add an extra rest day?
Robert Miller
Alright I'll find a ppl to do, thanks
David Lopez
Jesus, just go straight to an intermediate bodybuilding routine then. Have fun wasting your noob gains.

It's easy to design your own, just put it down on paper. You only need a few key points:
>Make sure your sets, reps, and exercises are consistent for at least a couple months at a time before changing >Attempt to increase weight or reps on every exercise, every day >Don't worry about fitting it into a week, 3 on/1 off is the best way to do PPL.
Just asking because it doesn't alternate between heavy and light.
Camden Thompson
Thank you, I do appreciate it

that should be fine. Honestly at the beginning its just a matter of doing the compounds and then finding what accessories work for you. For example I personally love flys/ cable crossovers, incline bench instead of flat bench, etc. but some people have different joints or just preferences. As you lift more you'll develop your own routine.
