Starting a EDT routine and wanted some feedback on the pairings or any suggestions to make it better:

Mon-
Squat/Crunch
Pull-ups/Inc. Bench
B-Bell curl/Rope Ext.

Wed-
1 Arm snatch- L/R
Bench/Seated Rows
Military/Preacher Curls

Fri-
D-Lift/Hanging leg raise
Chins/Dips
Lat.Raise/Weighted vest push-ups

if this is ur first time doing EDT ur gonna have a hell of time doing three PR sessions per workout

Pairings I dont like
Squat and Crunch - ur abs are already gonna be fucked from the squats and ur going to go right into crunches and tire them out more which is going to negatively affect ur squats… i personally like to pair the leg movements with either a pre-hab shoulder exercise (L-lateral raise) or an isolation arm exercise (DB hammer curls)

The same thing goes for Deadlift and hanging leg raise

also rather than seated rows id do bent over barbell rows paired with bench

here is the routine ive used recently and its shown results immediately… prolly the best results ive had infact in terms of muscle gain and fat loss, besides the first two months that i lifted

A/B split

A
15 min Decline Bench / Bent Over Row
15 min Squat / L -lateral raise

B
15 min Weighted wide-grip pullup / Incline BP
15 min Dumbbell Swings / DB Hammer Curl

then at the end of these workouts ill usually do a mini EDT for like 8 mins of either BB curls, or tricep extensions

completely simple but incredibly effective

Thanks H. Carl this is not my first time doing doing EDT just looking to change things up a little bit, understand the abs thing now, and probably will split it up. I am wondering if i use your program but add a 3rd day maybe deadlift/dips

military/abs
bi/tri

any suggestions

only thing id say here is that u have more upper body pushes (4) than upper body pulls (2)

also good luck with the deadlift dip pairing :slight_smile:

Deads/Dips and Sq/Pull-ups are 2 of my favorites to pair and have been doing those over the last 6 weeks. I took this week off and thats why i was switching things around

hah ur a better man than me… there is no way i could do a dead/dip pairing
