    Question Need Advice: Coming Off 6-Weeks of Ketogenic Eating & Light Weights (gopro, SF, DD)

    I am coming off 5-6 weeks eating ketogenic style, and training VERY light almost everyday. I am VERY experienced so I don't need advice as if you're talking to a newbie. Been working out 9 years non-stop, and I'm going to post a few pics to show that I am not a newbie.

    Some programs I'm considering:

    - Max-OT (never done it, info needed please)
    - HST (never ran a full cycle, just messed around with it)
    - 5x5 (never done it, looks interesting)
    - P/RR/S (only done it a few times, half-assed)

    Or just a basic chest/back/shoulders/arms/legs split, taking rest days when I need them, going as heavy as possible.

    I am going to be doing a M1T cycle and I eating a clean diet. Not overly strict, of course.

    BTW, currently I'm weighing 211 lbs. and feeling like sh*t on ketogenic diet so tomorrow I'm back to normal.

    LOL, f*ck it, I am going to go with P/RR/S. I am sick and tired of reading about how great it is and I haven't even given it a full try myself.

    I am thinking about maybe this kind of split:

    1. Chest, triceps
    2. Back, biceps
    3. Rest
    4. Shoulders, traps
    5. Legs
    6. Rest

    Most likely that, or something like this:

    1. Chest, shoulders
    2. Back, abs
    3. Rest
    4. Arms
    5. Legs
    6. Rest

    Here's my advice: every 4-5 weeks, completely revamp the exercises and exercise order. Also work with timed rest intervals, different time under tensions, rep ranges and set schemes.

    I will also be one to agree, lol. But which split do you guys think looks better? I think I like the first, because chest/shoulders IMO is too much front delts for one day.
