Forum: Workout Programs

I am only available on Saturday, Sunday and Thursday. What body parts should I be doing for those 3 days? 5’9”, 160lbs in the morning after waking up. Smart scale has my BF% between 20%-23%. What can I do to add muscle mass without gaining BF%. Note: I also practice Semen Retention...

So I have this tendon problem in my right shoulder that pops every rep when I do overhead raises and lat pull downs. I already have plenty of replacements for lat pull downs. I'm just stopping my overhead raise reps with my arms at shoulder level so it won't pop. I know the exercise should have a...

So my small town gyms calf raise machine broke. I still wanted to do calf raises so I started setting the leg press machine on the highest chair position and putting the top half of my feet on the bottom of the plate. I kept raising the weight because it felt too easy. Then I finally decided to try...

I’ve been running a ULPPL for a couple years now and I’d say it’s been working decently well, but I wonder if I could get a little bit more out of a full-on upper/lower with equivalent or possibly even more volume. I’d run 3 upper days and 2 lower days. The idea is that I could get more out of my...

So thanks to the forum members I have found out that my work out routine isn't very good. I've been going to the gym 7 days a week partly because I only have about one hour a day I can devote to the gym. As I'm redesigning my work out program I'm wondering how much of a problem only 1 hour is if...

Hey! My name is Walker, I have been training for about a year now and I am 18 years old. I have begun to platue but I need some advice on how to train. I currently train Push Pull Legs 6 days a week but would like to switch it up a bit. I want to gain strength and size at the same time, I...

Hi, I'd appreciate it if any of you would give me some feedback on this workout routine I've set up. I need to take a break from leg work for a while, due to injury. So this will be upper body only. Also, 5x5 only and barbell only. Workout A: Incline bench press (15 degrees) Barbell row...

How much of an impact is there to say randomly switching up one of your conditioning days to a lifting day and going back to normal the following week? I know it's a broad question, just wondering how important strict routines are when it comes to working out only (not diet), as I have a much...

I'm sure this has been brought up before, but I can't find it on the forum search. All pro's has the following exercises. 2 warmup sets for the first three and two works sets for all. It has a heavy medium and light day (100%, 90%, 80% weights respectively) Squats Bench Presses Bent-Over...

I'm gonna be programming barbell rows superset with barbell bench for a while and see how it goes, from both a time efficiency standpoint and the theory that Brian Alsrhue used in one of his old barbell row videos of it carrying over to his bench in that order (I'll see how it goes for myself). ...

Early 40s female here. My goal is to build muscle and get to between 20-25% BF, which I'm sure is some peoples starting point on here! I’m probably low-mid 30s right now. I don’t want to be shredded, just strong, toned and look halfway decent. I’ve been working out with a trainer 1-2x per week...

This is my PPL split that I have been developing and following for a little while now. I enjoy it, but I like to refine it and make it as best I can as I go along my fitness journey. This isn't a strict 6-7 day split. I have volleyball workouts on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I like to take those...
