give me an example of your routine if you dont mind?

thanks for the advice pushandpull, anything else you can recommend instead of flat bb press, my body doesnt seem to agree with it it hurts my shoulder blades! i tend to just stick to db press which doesn't give me any problems. Also how important do you think periodization is? i normally just...

push and pull i'd be interested to see your schedule as well, this is my current one, is it similar? day 1 pull up 4 sets db row 4 sets lat pull down 3 sets hammer curls 3 sets day 2 rest day 3 db bench 4 sets db fly 3 sets db shoulder press 4 sets incline db press 3 sets day 4...

how often do the majority of you train each body part? in the past what have you seen best gains on? more aimed at people lifting naturally

depends on your body, i deload about once every 8 weeks, like most things you've got to try it and see, just like the routine you might try it and even though your eating enough you dont feel recovered by the time you hit the same exsercises again (ie monday to friday) so you may switch to a...

1 set of weighted pull ups? how many proper form body weight pull ups can you do?

i have been doing the below workout for a couple of weeks, my lifts have gone up in weight or reps every week, just wondered what everyone thinks about the last set of every exercise is this needed? day 1 pull up 4 sets db row 4 sets lat pull down 3 sets hammer curls 3 sets day 2 rest day 3...

will that still give reasonable size gains?

thanks for all the responses and advice guys, im gonna not go any higher than 10 reps, so i'll use a 6-10 range, as soon as i can lift a weight for 10 reps the next week i'll up the weight a little

romanian dead lift, yeah could do some dips on day 3

can some other people give me some feedback please?
