All good!
IF YOU ARENT WORKING OUT 6 DAYS A WEEK YOU ARE A CUCK
tbh if you figure out a way to get your workout in before work or school, in the morning, its so much easier to stick to it
My only off day is sunday, Im making very good gains. 6 days specifically because you get the Lord's day off and because when I played lacrosse they weren't legally allowed to work us past 6 days a week or something along those lines
the school district banned 7days/week of workouts, they required we get a day off
seems like a good system tbh, you can do spend 2-3 days working other muscle groups and letting the ones you hit a while ago rest, but compress 2 weeks of work into one week. I used to only hit 4 days/week and prefer 6 days a week much more. Whether Ill continue to see gains past several months remains to be seen.
just dont burn yourself out. lifting is all about consistency
^
Yeah, a lot of it is about routine, repetition and rest (PATIENCE)
@Koba#0202 I’ve always been a big believer that morning lifting is best for consistency because you never know what kind of chaos will throw you off later in the day.
@Deleted User yeah that's what's always thrown me off my routine in the past. Once I missed one day it made it more difficult to make up that missed day and hit my weekly goal. I would end up losing a lot of momentum
Here is a program I wrote. I will follow for 8 weeks. Any criticism
Deadlift on back day, it's one of the big 3
I wouldn't squat and deadlift on the same day, but that's just me.
10 sets, 10 reps... I wouldn't do it
I guess it works for lean muscle and endurance
Not ideal for strength or size
After
Looks pretty good to me
With probably 5 minutes of cardio as warm up
@Deleted User Yeah I am not really doing it for strength. I have followed quite a few strength programs. This is for volume.
@Deleted User Thanks. The only thing it needs is a good sprint day.
@Deleted User I do proper deadlifts. NO romanian deadlifts or straight leg deadlifts for me. So I hardly count it as a back workout.
Ok
I usually do like 15 - 20 minutes of cardio before lifting, both to warm up and because Im usually spent by the time I finish a lifting session
If anyone is considering joining a local sparring club but thinks they’re not in good enough shape... just remember- it’s not the size of the man in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the man. https://youtu.be/JhZpTjj3KxM
@Alfred-22 waaaaaaaay too much volume in my opinion. It's going to be really hard for you to progressively add weight on your compound lifts doing 10x10 reps
I would highly recommend cutting your volume in half and just doubling your lift frequency
I would still deadlift on squat day since it is a posterior chain dominant lift so it works perfectly in conjunction with squats, but 10x10 on squats AND deads is asking for an injury.
Oosh I missed the 10x10 part
That’s 200 reps of the two biggest lifts
I was considering going to 5 x 10
I really wanted to try a really high volume with big lifts. Just kind of see how my body reacts
This definitely isnt a long term plan. Just 6 weeks of radically high volume and then maybe decrease volume by half. AFter I would go back to standard strength training.
I am considering the criticism. I will be sticking with the 10 x 10 for the main compound lift but I will decrease the other exercises to 3 x 10.
@Nick-NJ @Deleted User How is that
I'm by no means an expert, but I'm just curious, cause I've never seen a program with this high volume
