Comments : I am use to full body splits and it is what I like. I found this one on bodybuilding.com in their routine search. Now I want to replace Lunges, and Straight Leg Deadlifts. Maybe add some kind of rowing activity, pullups, and abs. I just don't know what to switch. A 4-day split could work for me to. My goal is strength / mass.

Do you want to combine strength and mass? In that case you would have to switch your entire reps/set in cycles. If you prefer mass building I would recommend you to go for 6-8 reps/set, if strength, go for 4-6 reps/set.

It's for both, hypertrophy and strength. I tried that rep scheme already and figured I would switch it up. I want to know how the volume looks and everything. I found this routine somewhere else and switched a few things around.

What's the reason behind doing 8, 6, 4, 2 as a rep scheme for squats and BP?
I also wouldn't do power cleans 3x10 or 3x8. Try 10x3 or 8x3. It's not an exercise that's performed well in a fatigued state.

Usually for my 3 main lifts I do 5x5. I will change the cleans because I can see what your talking about. The rep scheme is off another routine and I threw in there to see if it might work for me. I am out of ideas.
