Push/pull/legs program
Hey guys! Any experienced bodybuilder opinions would be greatly appreciated!
I’m currently 190lbs at 15% bf. years ago I used to bodybuild then went on to powerlift where my greatest lifts where:
Squat 200kg
Bench 150kg
Deadlift 230kg
I tore my knee cartilage at work which stopped me powerlifting. Went into depression and gave it all up! Kicking myself for it now but can’t change the past. 6-7years without training I got out of shape.. badly. First went skinny as **** then met my wife and she fed me up and made me fat bless her. I’ve been back in the gym now for the past 6months (roughly) and my goal now is bodybuilding. Since back at training I’ve transformed the look of my body but I am struggling with the body fat! Was 25% body fat at one point. My goal is 200lbs at 10% body fat. I know diet and nutrition is key but I wondered if you could pick any holes in my current training program?
I’m doing a push pull legs split in a horizontal/vertical quad/ham style.

Obviously some days the reps vary but I try to keep it to this. Sometimes I add
In drop sets when I feel the last set wasn’t enough. Didn’t know whether it would be best to keep all the chest movements on Monday and all the shoulder movements on Thursday but I feel it would be better to train them twice a week with the difference being on the actual pushing and accessory movements.
Again thanks for any input
