Just wondering, cause it seems low volume but I am hitting my muscles 1-2x.
Example currently:
Push 1: Monday
- Flatbench DB Press 5x5-6 (Chest)
- Incline Barbell Press 3x8-12 (Upper Che&Shoulder
- Dips (Chest Tri Shoulder) 3x to 2-3 RIR
- Skull Crushers 4x12-15
Push 2: Thursday
- Flatbench DB Press 4x8-12
- Shoulder Press Barbell (standing) 4x8-12
- Triceps Overhead Extensions 1x6, 1x8, 1x10
- Cable Lateral Raises 5x15
I am basically doing 9 Sets Chest just with DB Benchpress. Do incline presses count and do the shoulder presses count too?
I cant do more im exhausted by the end of my workout and each takes already 1 hour.
For legs I do: wednesday 1
- RDLs
- Bilgarien Splitsquats
- Leg Curls
- Smithmachine Calf raises
Saturday 2:
- Squat Barbell
- Leg Extensions
- Leg Curls
- Calf Raises
Dunno… or should I Stick to same exercises for each PPL day?
I wonder if its bad doing incline bench and standing shoulder press only once for example… but dont they kind of target same muscles?
It varies from person to person and how you have been training, but generally it’s around two years I believe. But in training terms it means that you can recover faster and pack on a lot more muscle than someone who is more advanced. In my first year I gained about 20lbs, second year 10lbs and third year 5lbs. I would consider myself moving into intermediate level now
