How long have you been doing this? How do you feel?

It’s going to be pretty hard for him to give you specific commentary from a list of exercises. It looks like a lot on paper, but maybe everything is at 15% of your max and you’re 47 reps short of failure; in that case, you’d have essentially no effective volume.

Generally, you’ll need to reduce some volume as you reduce calories anyway. How will you do so on this plan?

If you want my opinion, and you likely don’t, you’d be better served to pick one of CT’s many plans and follow it. Pick a target weekly weight loss, have some indicator exercises you want to maintain/ improve, and then you can more easily ask him specific questions in the event of a stall.

Thankyou for for your feedback all advice is helpful.

I have been doing this for around 6 months

Im fairly heavy at the moment so some of the bodyweight exercises are pretty hard for me so towards the end I am getting closer to failure .

The loaded carries are suposed to act as a kind of 2nd warm up / hypertrophy/ fixing imbalances.

Iv done Thibs neurotype and was a type 2b ans was doing those training plans.

I do enjoy training full body better than any other split.
I was trying to create something similar to that of best Dam volume/ EDT but with A full body approach.

Thanks again for your replys.
