Forum: Workout Programs

I have been doing Lyle McDonalds Bulking Routine (UL/LO Split) for a couple of years and reached early proficient strength levels in most lifts (according to symmetricstrength.com). While I really enjoy the routine a lot, due to it only requiring 3-4 days a week, I feel like it might be time to...

So I have been slowly cutting volume and I have found no difference between what I was doing and what I’m currently doing. I always thought the majority of people did too much.

There is this old book from the early 1900's called "muscle control and barbell exercise" by an Indian lifter. It can be found easily online. If you look at the photos of bodybuilders at the end of the book, you will see that some of them are quite jacked. The thing that interests me most is...

I wish I would have understood the importance of working out every day at an earlier age. Unfortunately I am getting a late start. I was lifting dumbbells different ways as a workout every day. After about a month I noticed extreme soreness on my upper arms. I stopped lifting the dumbbells...
