So after getting bored with the constant hypertrophy routines, I decided to develop from a DUP program. After one month of doing this, I hit a PR of 425, 20 pounds up from my previous max. My only worry is that I am overtraining, especially with all the accessory work. I started off with just bicep curls and a little calf work each day to this lol. I can't decide on my goals aesthetically which is a problem. But I am curious what you all think of my program!
Keep in mind, I subtracted 10% from my maxes in each lift just to give myself room to grow. And I also wouldn't go to failure on any accessory lift, just get a good squeeze and such. Thanks for looking!

Anything more than 20 sets a day feels like too much for me. I can't even imagine doing 21 sets of compund lifts..

Are warm up sets included to what you wrote? Or are they only working sets?

Those are my working sets. Don't really see a need to track warm up sets.

Only you can tell if you are overreaching. If it hasn't happened in a month then the workload is probably not excessive.

That is an extremely good point. I guess if the gains were good, why would I give it up!
