benching at all? try to organize, u dont need to squeeze everything into two days, start with either a 3 or 4 day spplit with something like this:
3day-
monday: squat and assistance
wed.: bench and assistance (shoulder, tris)
fri: dead and assistance (back, bi’s grip)
or 4 day:
monday: squat
tuesday: bench ME
thursday: deadlift
saturday: bench DE or whatever is weak and u need to work on,
try something like that for a while and then u can maybe up the load to 5days a week if u find it necesary i know alot of ppl dont, i do. hope that helps
o yeh i c now, if u work the muscle hard enough it will, also look up the shotgun method article, its 4 days i think but each main exercise is once a week. other wise u could do this if its not wworking u hard enough:
1: bench, assitance, end with high rep squatting
2: deadlift and assistance
3: squat and assist, end with high rep bench,
this way u hit it when u already fatigued and it might be lke a good follow up to ur previous session
im on a high rep phase now of just 10’s, if u use the doing high rep bench after a squat day and vide versa i would say 2-3 sets of one pressing exercise of 10-20
u could start with what u can do for 20 and then do another set of the same weight trying to get close to 20.
i know alot of ppl on here dont like high reps but i think they are great and add muscle like nothing else if u use a heavy weight that u have to breathe ur way through
sweet! ya, breathing sets (for any exercise) is very demanding and packs on muscle like a bitch! i’ll give it a try.
btw, since i got you here, what are your thoughts on split squats? you find regular squats better? (im talking about for the high rep breathing squat sets, not the heavy ones)
used split squats once or twice, didnt like them just a weird set up and doesnt hit the muscles i want to carry over to my real squat since the split is quad dominant and im a wide squatter so im ham dominate, plus regular=more weight, more growth
