Thread: New Goal. help appreciated.

right now i'm doing push/pull/legs each muscle 1x a week. would a upper lower split to work eachmuscle more frequently help achieve my goal? i have been training in the 3-5rep range till failure.

the only goal that you should have is to make less threads.

CowPimp: Bodybuilder
Your goal is structural adaptations. You want size, and you want it now. Conversely, you may also be seeking a leaner physique and you are simply looking to maintain your current level of lean mass or possibly add some if at all possible. Assuming proper diet, the following guidelines should help you to achieve your goals, although you are certainly not limited to these:

Type of Training: Repeated effort method.

Frequency: Train each muscle group or type of movement 1-3 times per week.

Intensity: 65-85% of your 1RM is the range of intensity levels that should see the most training time.

Volume: Each exercise should consist of 24-50 repetitions. 2-4 exercises per major body part is generally sufficient through the course of the week. Make sure to balance the training stimulus between antagonist muscle groups.

Rest Intervals: 30-120 seconds.

Exercise Selection: Stick primarily to compound movements, but adding isolation work is also acceptable for lagging body parts. Exercises should not need to be varied more often than needed for enjoyment of your workout or once every mesocycle.

Tempo: A variety of tempos is acceptable. Generally, accentuating the negative portion of the movement is more beneficial than accentuating the positive portion of the movement. However, if the force curve allows for it, holding the peak contraction for longer may be beneficial on occasion. All in all, I think little attention should be paid to this variable.

Training Split: Push-pull-legs, push&bis-pull&tris-legs, and push-quads-pull-hams are probably the most balanced low frequency training splits. Upper-lower splits are also great for a moderate frequency. Total body training splits are perfect for high frequency routines.

You seem to have put on a shitload of size in that year. So if your goal is size why not just stick to what is working for you. Unless it isn't working, in which cause you might want to look into some periodization.

5 bucks says kenwood makes a thread next week about starting a new routine for strength. something like:

"well i've been lifting for size for two days now and i think i'm happy with my gains so far. i'm getting bulky so i decided i'll be strength training for a while to get my strength closer to my size. anyone got any routines?"
