The answer above is a good one - All Pros is a good beginner routine, as is Fierce 5 Novice. Fierce 5 U/L mighr be better once you've trained hard for ~6 months as it's a lot more volume, though...

What is your starting point?

Age, weight, height, resistance training experience etc?

I'm currently lean bulking at just under 19 calories per pound bodyweight, maintenance would be 17 cals/lb, I'd start a cut at just over 14 csls/lb and would probably go as low as 12 cals/lb by the...

Haha, you've added more to your OHP in 10 days than I have in the last 2.5 years of consistent training.

While I think you'd be better off ditching your program and doing a novice full body routine, or an upper-lower split, I think the consistent 4 x 10 approach across all exercises is probably the...

Added a set to three exercises, but it only added a minute to the workout. I'm really enjoying the myo rep sets, in a sadistic kind of way.

Is that cutting, maintenance or bulking for you?

I'm lean bulking and currently on the same calories as you. I'm 176lb at present and my average daily macros are 180g protein, 90g fat and 440g...

Big jump in weight last week. I'm keeping calories at 3300 this week and if I get a similar gain I'll...

Haha, it's OK, I'm well and truly used to being overtaken by novice lifters by now!

I planned on doing my second upper session today but am too sore from yesterday's workout. If my Lower sessions were purely lower body I'd probably be fine. Unfortunately this means I'll almost...

Sleep: ~ 6.5 hours

Three consecutive bad nights of sleep and waking with a headache meant I struggled to get out of bed for this workout. I actually feel significantly worse than when I had Covid....

I'm sure they didn't hurt! Covid was very mild for me - I thought I could probably get away with training hard, but opted to play it safe.
