Aesthetic Workout- Feedback?

[Ashketchup]

Current: Skinnyfat. Goal: Aesthetic, full pecs, abs, mini version of what Zyzz has going on. Picking looks over strength and backing it up with martial arts training in the long run.

==============================================

Before Running-
1. Quadriceps Stretch
2. Hamstring Stretch
3. Piriformis Stretch
4. Gastroc Stretch
5. Soleus Stretch
==============================================


Before Lifting-
Stretch one arm across your chest.

• Make sure it is straight as you go across. Do this twice on each arm. Hold 10 seconds each.

Lift your arm up over your head and touch your shoulder blade with your hand.

• Make sure everything is straight again to get all the benefits. Do twice on each arm, hold 10 seconds each.

Stretch your neck side to side and down.

• Hold each for 10 seconds.

Do a child's pose.

• Sit on your knees and bend down and stretch your arms out in front of you. This stretches the upper and lower back, as well as the arms.

Bump, trying to get started in the next hour.

You're not gonna fix skinnyfat with some "aesthetic" routine quickly. That said, I didn't bother to look over whatever split you have somehow come up with.

General advice: Drop the DIY-brosplit, get on a strength compound program (Starting Strength preferred), eat at maintenance calories and increase to a reasonable surplus over 4-8 months = epic profit

Edit: looked at your "routine". It's awful, please follow above advice ^.

Use starting strength to gain mass and body, then switch off it and hit the spots i feel im lacking aesthetically, and hopefully by 4-5 months I won't be a dumbsht and smart enough to figure it out?

no offense

but this is the worst routine i've ever seen

if you're skinny fat you're not just going to GROW into zyzz.

you need to bulk and eat a lot of cals and build base strength w/ heavy weight + low reps.. not gonna get anywhere starting from skinny fat doing 1 set of 10 reps...

then you clean up your diet and raise reps + cardio to cut.

and zyzz also admitted to doing like 3+ cycles of roids to get his build.

No, do starting strength on the nutrition intake level I suggested (or do your own reading and come up with something better), after several months you'll forget about that "aesthetics split" bullsh*t because you'll be stronger, leaner and bigger than ever.

Oh, and about Zyzz (in b4 controversy sh*tstorm) dude is/was on sauce. Looked good without sauce, looks good with. Widely considered to be a ******* round these parts, and a poor role model. I look up to babyslayer because he's 6'3 340, ox blood and smart too.

(if bs is reading this, yes homo<3)

Oh, and start reading the stickies in the Nutrition forum to get a grasp on what your body needs, cuz I ain't writing a thesis about it. I'm afraid you'll never be successful in this sport if you don't understand nutrition.

Starting strength... I wanna do something else.. I'm 4 months in.. but the progress I've seen.. I just can't argue with it.
