patrician's choice

I always thought an Arnold split had issues because while doing chest movements like BP, you're using your triceps and shoulders a little, and when doing movements like rows for back there's a little bit of bicep usage. Wouldn't placing an arm day right after this hamper recovery?

Too many exercises

My legs are fine, but I’ve always had teeny arms. I refuse to touch another muscle until they are up to the standard of the rest of my body.

245lb bench, 14 in biceps. 415 diddly.

What do? What’s a good aesthetics workout that focuses on arms. I’m done with strength training.

>My legs are fine, but I’ve always had teeny arms.
Doubt. Post body.
> I refuse to touch another muscle until they are up to the standard of the rest of my body.
That's silly. That's like breaking your left leg because your right leg is broken and you want them to heal at the same time.
>245lb bench, 14 in biceps. 415 diddly.
Pullups?
>What do? What’s a good aesthetics workout that focuses on arms. I’m done with strength training.
That's retarded. Keep doing what you're doing but add 5xF pullups every workout

Pls halp, going to gym rn.

Alpha novice with the conventional lifts?

Already do 4 sets of 8 weighted pullups
If you are just recommending pullups, you are retard

Ignore douche pose pls

Anyone help me with creating a good weekly routine for at home with the equipment i have on hand?

I don't remember seeing that kinda work spread, so I wanted your 2 cents. I work at the gym, your 2 days off in the middle of the week are days im at work/gym. I'd rather not be thre and not lift. Cool spread, kidos if it works for you.

th-this seems really nice, user.
How are the gains? I have a homegym so I can't do the rope pushdowns, lat pulldown or facepulls, but that's about it. I guess I could subsitute the ropes for close grip bench, lat pulldown for dumbbell rows and I don't know what the fuck facepulls are. But really great routine, thinking of doing it.

Would love some critiques and suggestions

Is this enough back volume?
3 sets deadlifts 3-5 reps
3 sets of 4 or 5 chinups
5 sets rows 6 reps
3 sets hyperextensions
5 sets lat pulldown
5 sets cable row

Is this per week?

Thats one workout. I do pull day 2x a week, the second day is the same as what I judt posted but without deadlifts, or sometimes just a set of light deficit deadlifts

this is coolcicada PPL

CoolCidade ppl once a week...

thanks brah. What makes this program so widely used?

You are one hardcore dude.
I like that both your routine and your unelated pic are focused on the USEFUL AND FUNCTIONAL, unlike the other FAGGOTS posting faggoty cosmetic bodybuilding routines.

Thoughts on my DUP template?
Monday:
Squats 5x5 @80%
Bench 4x8 @70%
Deadlift 4x3 @75%

Wednesday:
Deadlift 3x5 @85%
Squat 4x8 @70%
Bench 6x3 @70%

Friday
Bench 5x5 @80%
Deadlift 2x8 @75%
Squat 6x3 @70%

Saturday (BB day)
Calves 4x12
Chin ups 5x8
Lateral raises 5x8
Rows 5x8
Tricep push down 4x10

You can use any 3 big moves on the main days, such as ohp instead of bench, box squats or front squats instead of regular squats or whatever you like really.
This template is for a high volume phase, ideally you would run for some time and then dial down the volume and up the frequency.

Nice. Do you periodize?

2 times a week, right now the program is:

A:
Chin ups, heavy, first set at 4-5 reps, 4 sets with the same weight AMRAP
Incline bench moderately heavy, first set at 7-8 reps, 4 sets with the same weight AMRAP
Sitting smith machine pressing, 2 heavy sets of 4-5 reps, 1 light set of ~10 AMRAP
Cable lateral raises, 4 sets of 12-15 reps
Cable tricep pulldown 4-5 sets of 12-15 reps
Hammer curls 4 sets of ~8 reps
Facepulls 4 sets of 12 reps
Neck work

B:
Incline bench, same as A
Lat pulldown, palms facing grip, starting with a weight that I can rep 10 times, 4 sets AMRAP
Quad extensions, 3 sets of 12 controlled reps
Leg curl, 3-4 sets of 12 controlled reps
Pec deck, starting with a weight that I can rep 10 times, 4 sets AMRAP
One armed smith machine shrugs, 4x8-12 depending on how my traps feel

I actually do something similar but compressing upper and lower both in 1 day because I don't have that much time to go to gym lately.

Is that naturally enhanced?

You're probably retarded

No, I'm pretty sure manlet destiny advocates higher volume and more weird equipment, also suggests maxing out in a lot of lifts to maximize weighted stretching.

care to explain why? i'd love to be less retarded

Honestly real question, does your routine even matter that much unless you're plateuing?
If I get in a few sets of compound lifts 3 times a week I'll be fine as long as i EAT RIGHT?

It's not as if one routine is going to change me by that much in terms of results?

That's exactly the right way to think about it. If it ain't broke and you're progressing, then keep doing your compounds 3x/week. If you stall, scrutinize and adjust your training.

You're smart for even asking this. Nitpicking and perfectionism do more harm than good half the time.

Lads, should I go onto calisthenics rather than a strength program since I am in the military? I feel as body weight workouts help more over than weightlifting. Any advice?

b-bump?

I cant speak for military training as I have no idea about that but training pure calisthenics (as in doing ONLY bodyweight moves) I can 1000% certify are pretty useless. I could explain in depth why but id rather not so just take my word for it.

How is this routine working for you? I've been doing Meme Lifts and my leg lifts are really running away and its showing (legs are getting pretty joocy but my upper body isn't at all).

colour me impressed
gonna steal some of these

Yes, workouts take me a fuckton of time, up to 2 hours. Yes, volume is borderline retarded.
Despite this, I've run this version of the program three times, almost 4 months, and up to now gains have been amazing and steady. I've never been this big and strong before.


Thoughts?

Fugg, forgot to mention

I also do light, low intensity cardio (usually jogging) three times a week

I do HIIT and conditioning twice a week

AND I do 50 unweighted chin-ups every training day

Keep on doing what you're doing, seems to be working for everything else.

Want bigger arms? Don't listen to these retards and start doing a fuckload of direct arm work.

To your chin-ups and pull-ups, add three curl variations. Do tricep pushdowns, skullcrushers, close grip bench press. Dips if you can do them comfortably.

usually squat, rows and deadlifts, then bench, lats machine and do some other machines if i can be fucked 3 days a week, sometimes cardio on off days, i know its not perfect but im losing weight so its allgood i guess

Trying this out at the moment. Working well so far.

Mon, Wed, Fri:
Pushups
Military press
Chin ups
Squats

I'm not trying to impress anyone.

nice tattoo

and by nice I mean gay as fuck

Me and my friend literally just made this up, so it very well may be retarded. For reference I lost like 100 lbs over the past year and am currently 195 @ ~5'11.

Core after every then I kind of sprinkle in cleans and bicep isolation excercises. I am guessing that everyone is just going to tell me to do one training style or the other but I'm curious what others recommend.

Forgot to mention 20 min HIIT on bike twice a week and that the squat or deadlift are primarily for CNS stress

godlike routine here:
Day 1
squats 5x5
bench press 5x5
rows 5x5
all with ramping weights
also some ab work if you want to
Day 2
squats 5x4 (last set is repeating the 3rd set)
incline press 5x5
deadlift 5x5
Day 3
Squats 3x5, 1x3, 1x8
bench press 3x5,1x3,1x8
rows 3x5,1x3,1x8
also some curls, triceps extensions and dips

didn't even read your routine

So, why do you blast your triceps before going on to bench press? Why do you even bother flat benching at the end when you just isolated your pec too?

I used to switch between Squat/DL and DL/Front squats on the B day. Now I think I just want to focus on squats and finally hit 3 plates. Am I too stupid with this shit, guys?

What is the best way to do cardio, should i give it a separate day or for eg do 20 min of cardio each day before my normal workout.

What is the best in your guises eyes

175 cm (5'9) 87kg

Power Clean-100kg

ignore this, I'm a fucking idiot, it's

OHP or Incline bench (again, nSuns style so 3-5-7-4-6-8)

Dips (+30kg, 5x8)
Dumbbell curls (standing with 28kg, 4x8, cheating a bit; incline 3x6 with 20kg, strict form)

B
Squat (nSuns style, max currently is 112.5kg)
Pull-ups (5x8 +25kg, 5x8 +20kg)
Dubbell rows (sometimes I superset them with the second 5x8 of the pull-ups, 5x6 with 44kg)
EZ bar curls (whatever I feel like, 4x8 with 15kg on each sides, no clue about the weight of the bar)


What do you guys think?

Keep deadlifting. Also mirin curls and pull-ups numbers

This is my current 6 day PPL split. Basically my idea is to do two basic, compound lifts, first in 'strength' range, second in 'hypertrophy' range, followed by an 'auxiliary' lift. I moved deadlift to legs day because (1) it will give legs and lower back 2 days to recover in between and (2) allows for more balanced routine overall. Of course it makes my legs day very taxing on the body, but I don't mind. For the first lift, after warm-up I always try a new 1RM, sometimes I fail (0), sometimes I manage to do 1 and sometimes even 2, depending on rest / stress / diet / other unknown factors I guess. After that I reduce some weight by each set (generally ~10% between 1st and 2nd, and then 5% for the rest). Final set is AMRAP. So far the results are pretty good, making good progress on all main lifts, my appearance is getting better too.

What do you guys think? Are there still some flaws in my approach I should keep in mind?

cardio morning, gym afternoon/evening, or other way around. Usually a bitch to do in the same session so i isplit it like that

Thanks, man, I was a bodyweight fag so my pull-ups are strong. I do them neutral grip because of my shoulders though, this will probably decrease some of the miring.

Deadlifts destroy me, man. I can't recover good, I don't progress good, the squat goes to shit. I like them and I will certainly do them again, but what doyou think will suffer the most if I don't do them for a month and focus on squat?

Why do you do deads in hypertrophy range, man? I'm not anything special in terms of diddlys but I think it's unnecessarily taxing. Also, you can switch the type of curls in the two pull days.
