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?

    Unless you are training to be a professional, do whatever you can do consistently.

    I currently do 1 compound and 2 isolation exercises on each day, with some forearm work. I used to do 5-6 exercises per day but it felt too exhausting and I needed a deload after a few weeks.

    I am seeing good progress with both routines. It might be a little less in the new one but I have much more energy throughout the day.
