Chest/Triceps/Shoulders and Back/Legs/Biceps

As a novice this is definitely doable…as an intermediate or beyond doing back + legs (within a bbing routine) might be a bit much/lead to an overcrowded routine. Just keep the volume within sensible bounds.

Should i take u serious? Something sais me that u are trolling me.

You can’t actually be saying that with a straight face. You’ve been asking the same basic question (under various names) for over a year. If you did a set of squats every time you posted on the site, you’d be farther along than you are now.

You need to stop overanalyzing and simply get to work in the gym. Your question has been answered many, many times by now.

Edited, because apparently I forgot what year we’re in.

You can’t actually be saying that with a straight face. You’ve been asking the same basic question (under various names) for four months. If you did a set of squats every time you posted on the site, you’d be farther along than you are now.

I have been on the gym, and have made noticeable gains, but the program i use is a bit boring, and want a more effectively one.

So is therefor I ask if that shoulder/triceps/chest and back/legs/biceps routine would work, because i will get the chance on training my musclegroups 2 times/week, but also do not just do a simple lower day every other day. It will be almost the same as a upper/lower routine, but with not a simple lower routine.

Just double it. Two a days, 4 days a week, so that you hit every. single. muscle. multiple times, don’t worry about percentages, just do whatever feels good and feels heavy, you seem to know what you’re doing. Go for the gusto, no pain no gain, if the bar ain’t bendin’ you’re just pretendin’!

Or

Full body, 4 times a week…I know, I know…it seems like overkill, but you really want to push yourself hard and hit your muscle groups multiple times a week, right?

Or

…nope, that’s it, literally the best advice I can give you. Best of luck, and godspeed.

Huh? What do u mean by « just double it»?

Forget it, u seem to be trolling.

So you want to be entertained more than you want to keep seeing results. Cool beans. Do whatever plan you want.

There are over 200 workouts on the site. Do one of them. Or make one up on your own using only your favorite exercises, the frequency that makes you smile, and a set/rep scheme that tickles your taint.

Training plans should always be goal-focused. If your primary goal is to not be bored, go for it.

But what do u think of the split i made there? It be the same excercies as i normaly use on my upper/lower routine, but i will divide it differently.

I think you’re not really interested in what people think about it, because you haven’t been open to advice from more experienced lifters. You’ve gotten plenty of input so far.

Everything you need to see results has been covered in the first 8 posts of this thread. Everything that came after is you finding ways to overthink and talk more instead of putting it into action.

I feel REALLY bad for Jim when he ends up reading the version of this over on the 5/3/1 forum (hopefully it’ll be skipped as it’s moved/locked). There have been some dumb interpretations of his work, but this is truly above and beyond.

[antiquity]

I would say the main problems with your approach:

1. You see professionally written programs as just lists of exercises, and believe changing them to “everything done at TM” and tacking new ones on is “basically the same thing”.

2. You don’t have the patience to make slow and steady progress. It takes a consistent, long term approach to add muscle and strength. Sure, you’ll see newbie gains at the outset, even if your programming sucks, just by picking up some weights and moving them around.

3. You can’t fathom that all the people here posting are much more experienced than you, and all are saying the same thing: “run a program exactly as its laid out. Don’t add exercises and don’t bastardize the weight progressions”.

Of course it takes time, but the 531 BBB program have a progression which takes alot more time then other routines like for example 5x5.

OP, what are your thoughts on Artificial Intelligence?

[Despade]

Also warm ups?

[GorillaMon]

LOL…no trolling here squire.

[FormerlyFast]

Are you 100% sure your clavicles are long enough?

[nogearoridea]

5X5 is beginner and 5/3/1 isn’t

[leo2222]

@nogearoridea

5

I would not categorize myself as a beginner, my lifts have gone up, and my form are good.

But what 4 day split would u reckommend? Has to involve my muscles twice a week. Brosplit? Upper/lower? Push pull? Something else?

[kd13]

Not again…

[nogearoridea]

you’ve been lifting for nearly one and a half years and still don’t know what works for you?
