Is this FULL BODY workout too much?

[mnguy29]

Hey I'm currently 6'1 185-190lbs. I do a full body workout every other day. It is long and intense. Lasting over an hour and a half. What do you guys think about this.

Bench - x4 8-12
Squat - x4 8-12
Deadlift - x4 8x12
Pullup - x4 8-12

After those big exercises I move onto supersetting for these

Leg press/Leg Extension - x3 8-12
Seated dumbbell press/Lat pulldown - x3 8-12
Lateral dumbbell raise/Row machine - x3 8-12

Then to the incline bench

Incline bench press - x3 8-12

Then back to suppersetting

Concentration curl/Dumbbell one arm tri extension - x4 8-12
Ab crunch machine/Machine preacher curls - x3 8-12
Back extension/Tricep pushdown - x3 8-12

Then I finish up with...
Dips - x3 8-12
Fly Machine - x3 8-12
cable crunch -x3 8-12

I know it is a lot but I feel great afterwards. Spent but great. Im getting ripped as well since an hour and a half of sweating my ass off is burning a hell of a lot of calories. I have really stepped up the intensity and been doing this for about two months so far. The results are great. I was thinking of doing a split 5 days a week but have been getting great results thus far. Just wondering if anyone thinks this is too insane. Thanks

Do you have any type of progression you're following that's adding weight? Unless you're eating like an animal it seems like it would be tough hitting every single muscle group three times per week.

I am more on the maintaining side. Im pretty muscular but have been cutting on this routine. I have lost about 15-20lbs in the last five months. Ive been steady at 185-190 for the past two months though. Getting leaner though for sure. Been around 1900 cals a day. Just trying to preserve but I would say that It feels like I have been increasing in my compound movements steadily. nothing major but moving up. Another 5-10lbs and Im goin up to 2400 cals to do a lean bulk. The full body has just been very useful as far as adding a cardio element to it.

too much.. you would get about same results doing half of that. eliminate all isolations , you dont need them

[Jorge12app]

Squat 3x8
*Deadlift 1x5 (only done every other workout)*
Bench 3x8 / Overhead Press 3x8-12 (alternate bench press and overhead press)
Pullup 3x8

BB Curl 3x8
Skullcrusher 3x8
Crunches 3x12
Facepuls 3x12
---------------------
cardio

and focus on increasing every the weight you use every day/week/month/year

half of that is unnecessary, i assure you, you are not gaining an ounce of muscle doing what your doing, you are just burning a lot of calories which is making you look lean (you might be getting just a little bit of musle because of noob gains).
if you want to burn calories do that in the treadmill or try running outside.

and btw intensity means what % of your 1rep max you are using, not how fast / less rest periods / listening to metal or whatever

Thanks for the replies everyone. What do you guys think of this plan...

Why reinvent the wheel? Just hop on one of the proven programs on here. Fierce 5, ICF 5x5, allpro, etc. I am in my 4th week of Fierce 5 and love it so that would be my recommendation. Plus davis, the creator, is very helpful.

^^^ This x 100!

What you are doing right now is way too much, and I kinda don't really believe it, since you eat 1900 cal a day. That's nothing.

The other program you posted is just as bad. Don't do bro splits.

[mnguy29]

I took a look at the Fierce 5. It looks good. I just took that one I posted and tinkered with it a bit and made it my own. I dont think chest and biceps on same day is necessarily bad. I'm coming from a weight loss workout routine that helped me lose 10-15 while trying to maintain muscle. The posted split, if used correctly and the diet is in order, should work just fine. But if my intensity is there and my diet is there and dedication. what else is there left to **** up?

Why do YOU as a beginner want to design your own routine? You lack knowledge, a lot, actually. The designers of the programs on here are very experienced and knowledgeable. You should pick one of those.

Also, don't ask for advice if you don't take it anyways. It's up to you, do whatever you want.
