Forum: Workout Programs

In a typical Back & Chest workout, i will hit in total 24 sets 12 for chest 12 for back, which i thought was fair volume and something i can manage.

Im looking at all those powerlifting programs, usually there are no direct progression laid out for accessory and hypertrophy work. How do you guys progress accessory and supplemental lifts? That are not based on percentages. Usually for my big main lifts like squat, deadlift and bench, im...

I've been going on in the gym since March 2021, I've followed a bro-split since then and recently I wanted to change to a frequency 2 programme. I was recommended to get a existing programme and modify it to my needs and I've done so with a Jeff Nippard PPL routine adapting it to the volume I had...

Hi, I've been working out consistently for 10 months 3-4 days a week (day after the other). for the first month I did a full body workout then started stronglifts 5x5 for 3 months and gained strength but did not get any bigger so I switched to another program that I've been following for the...

Hi all, sorry for the beginner questions…. I am considering stronglifts 5x5 because I like its simple structure and I already undertake some muscle endurance/cardio activities (outlined below). But I want to be sure that I am not starting something completely wrong for my circumstances, and I...

Is there a better option in the way of a PPL routine or just general bodybuilding? Any places in particular on...

I've been lifting for awhile but feel like I've never done things right since I haven't seen great results. There is a lot to blame and diet was one of them but I've never been on a proven program and had to modified ones to work with my equipment. In the past I'd either over train, not following...

You know the pecs I'm talking about. Super defined under shadow in any lighting, the roll over on the bottom. I've been working on my pecs for a few months now. I'm seeing some acceptable gains but perhaps there is a quicker way. I'm 6'0, 180 lbs. I work chest every monday, wed, and fri. It USUALLY...
