Sugest me a new routine for 2013- REPS

[respare]

Well its a new year so i though i might as well start a new routine. I have had a look at a fair few routines but i might as well get tbb input as well.

Can only train 4 times a week so idealy need something with a 2x/week frequency.

Strictly hypertrophy as i dont give a damn about strength anymore.

Will rep anyone with any ideas.

GO TBB!

Haha that was one of the routines i was actually looking at except i would add in more lateral delt work in. Have some reps.

cheers bro, have you thought about doing a full-body like the one Derek posted the other day that looked quite good but I cant find it atm

[lovellman]

You could do - Upper/Lower/Full/Full ..?

[respare]

You could do - Upper/Lower/Full/Full ..?

This actually has potential.

Something like lower,upper,rest,full,rest,full,rest,repeat would work, it has 3x a week frequency but allows for more volume with the upper/lower part.

Have some reps

[James199117]

day 1 chest tris abs

Not sure i srs?

Hypertrophy = getting big and lean.

You are into bodybuilding?

this interests me as well, is there a good one you can direct us to?

[05Lurker]

What are your goals?

[respare]

You are into bodybuilding?

I wouldnt mind getting to a size i can compete at one day. So yes.

[respare]

I have never seen any programs like this so if i go down this route it would be combining to routines into one. With the majority of the volume on the upper/lower days probably 8-10, maybe 12 sets per muscle group. Then on the full body days i would have 4-6 sets per muscle group.

An upper / lower seems like your best option. I'd recommend p/p/l but if you haven't got the time to train 3 on 1 off then it's not worth it.

I suppose a full body would also be a decent choice if you want the high frequency.

If i could do p/p/l routine i would as imo they are the best in terms of hypertrophy but due to prior comitments such as work, college, gf, other **** etc. i cant train 6 days a week atm.

I like the idea of upper/lower/full/full ^^^

So do i. I think it definatly has some potential to be a pretty epic way of training.

[ratthed96]

Neil Hill's Y3T program has worked wonders for me. Thats what I'm doing 2013. Would seriously reccomend it.

[Matthew98x]

This is Derek's!

I recommend it, using it myself:

Squats 3x6-10
Flat Bench Presses 3x6-10
Incline Bench Presses 3x6-10
Wide Grip Pullups 3x6-10
Barbell Rows 3x6-10
Lying French Press / Standing Barbell Curl 3x6-10
Tricep Pushdown / Seated Dumbbell Curl 3x6-10
Lateral Raises 3x10-12
Standing Calf Raises 3x10-25
Deadlift 5x5 Ramped to one working set



NOTES:
- Deadlifts can be alternated with 3x6-10 Stiff Deadlifts and/or Leg Curls . There will be days that you are too tired to Deadlift, and would rather focus on Hamstring Isolation. Deadlifting heavy three times a week is unnecessary and can burn you out. You can Deadlift just once a week if you desire.

- Flat Bench Presses must be performed with a Barbell. Incline Bench Presses can alternate Barbell & Dumbbell, or be Dumbbell only. Either will work. This is your preference.

- You do not have to do both superset arm exercises. Feel free to only choose Lying French Press & Barbell Curls. This is simply geared toward people who don't want their arms lagging. Just pick Lying French Press & Standing Barbell Curl if you don't want to do 2 bicep/2 tricep movements each time

- Some people do not perform well when they start their training session with Squats. You are welcome to put them at the END of upper body training. In other words, finish your Upper Body first; then perform Squats/Calves/Deadlifts so you can leave the session after the very taxing lower body work.

- If you want to be in the gym more than 3 days a week because you have OCD about being in the gym, or because doing Upper and Lower body in the same session is too difficult for you; simply take the last 3 exercises and perform them on separate days. You will split the session into 2 days, and end up being in the gym 6 days a week while doing the same workload . I don't suggest this, but since I already know it will be asked, I have already addressed it.

- Do Abdominal work or Rotator Cuff therapy work at your discretion. You don't need to ask about it.

- Progression is simple. Use the same weight until you can perform all the reps inside the desired rep range. I wrote 6-10 to give you flexibility.
3x6-8 for the big compound lifts will be ideal. 3x8-10 for movements like Wide Grip Pullups would make more sense, but if you want to stay in the lower rep range, then go for it. Tricep/Bicep work can be either/or ; you can even have the main Tricep/Bicep movement be 3x6-8, and the second one be 3x8-10 (The same goes for the Flat/Incline Bench). Keep Lateral Raises & Calf Work & Deadlifts the way they are.

For starters his name is ethan. He has had several acounts banned on this forum and other forums.

Secondly, all he did was slightly modify reg parks phase 3 and arnies full body begineer routines.

And third of all that routine takes 1.5-2 hours to complete and i simply dont have that much time to spend in the gym 3x a week.

Sorry I have seen many posts saying is this Derek's routine, and I did not know that.

Also I have a home gym so i suppose I have more time and everything is set up for me but it only takes me around 1 hour but I do have everything set up.

Commercial gyms are a bitch for this reason.

What about:
Monday:Upper

Thuseday:Lower

Wednsday:Upper

Thursday:Lower

Friday: off

Saturday: Fullbody

Sunday: off

Hitting each muscle 3x per week

[alexistheboss]

Take greg plitts routine for example, and edit it to your liking.
