Dire Need of a Plan

Bigger Stronger Leaner Competitive Bodybuilding

hi guys, I have been doing the following workout for more than a year now. I have gained strength and some 15 pounds over a period of year and a half.

I like doing compound exercises and supersets to get the cardio effect. I am in a dire need of different workout plan as I have hit a plateau more than a few times. My goal is to keep gaining strength and get the cardio effect by doing compound exercises and supersets.

I would really appreciate any input.

2nd week three sets each and 12 reps
3rd week four sets each and 10 reps
4th week 3 sets each and 6 reps (weight increase)

Id say drop out of your norm youve been stuck on this routine 18 months go something totally different for 4-8 weeks then come back to what you know worked and hopefully with a few more tricks

There are plenty of workout programs on this site. Pick one :slight_smile:

I’m with Phil. Try doing something completely different from what you’ve been doing, maybe something like 10x3. Also, try adding in some isolation exercises.

Compounds are great, but the isolation exercises will give some attention to some muscle groups that may have been getting under-stimulated. They will also ultimately help increase your compounds in the long run.

Finally, I might suggest going to a split routine. Full body routines are great, but there’s a good chance that your body has adapted to that protocol and switching to a split might shock your body into new growth.
