Ethan can you please elaborate on why madcows is better than the push/pull routine?

Main goal is hypertrophy. Ive been lifting seriously for about a year. I dont like madcows very much as I love getting a good pump every workout.

4 day Push/Pull I plan on doing soon:

Mon:

Squat 3x5
Bench (madcows progression)
Incline Bench 3x8
lateral raises 3x10 ss w/ rear delt raises
weighted dips 3x6-8
skullcrushers 3x12

I wouldn't go heavy on it but I would add 1-2 sets of high rep DB presses at the end as a "finisher"

The only downside is the extremely high living costs, a car costs almost 80k usd here

You mean you alternated between high bar and low bar even when you were still running ss/madcows?

Do you squat high bar or low bar?

Have you tried resetting your lifts or a deload week?

Yeah why are you complaining? You should be happy.

Thats a **** load of volume man.

This. And maybe a deload week.

Its a simple, easy to follow routine that works.

Youre a soccer player, squatting will only benefit you so do them. And I suggest doing a 1x5 rep scheme for DLs and shifting it to before your arm work.

It looks fine, dont forget fat though its important for bulking as well

Are you bulking or cutting?

Bush
Palin
Federer
Nadal

doesnt show much 6/10. Great calves though

You could cure them with one of your potions

Your gym doesnt have a squat rack?

Yeah eat more
