Hey everybody.
It’s time for me to change up my routine, i’we been doing a slightly modified version of Stronglifts for the past 8 months.
Stats:
23 years old , currently only 158 lbs, i can squat 220 lbs, deadlift 300 lbs.
Unfortunately , my routine is obsolete now: 3 days/week , 2 types of workouts A and B. First week ABA, second week BAB. The weights are becoming too challenging for my BW, injuries starting to occur, my CNS gives me a lot of trouble. I manage to do the first 2 workouts of the week, but by the third workout i can barely drag myself to the gym.
I’m planning a bulk until the next spring, and i’m looking to find the best 3 days split for my goals. I reckon one day would be LEGS day, i only need squats+calf work in it.
If you could give me a few pointers (links,articles,etc)i will appreciate it, as i have no clue about what’s the current trend regarding splits.
Thanks a lot.

This is why you shouldn’t be giving advice dipshit. He said he has problems with recovery, and your telling him to do a 100 fucking reps of squats in a day?

On another note, when I first met our slow friend above he was 5’9" at his whooping 155lbs. So I guess he shrunk, or he stopped measuring himself in his mom’s high-heels.
