Just looking for a critique on my routine for quarantine. I only have access to a backpack, pull up bar, and weights that go upto 70lbs. The weights are heavy enough for upper body where I don’t get more than 10-15 reps on push ups when I load them in a back pack, and of course arm isolation is covered. Only thing I was worried about is legs as I fear I cannot do enough for them even though it feels like it’s fine. I’m looking to build muscle with this routine. I also wrote how many reps I normally get with the excercises. Let me know if any improvements I can make. Each major muscle gets hit 16 sets a week. Should I bump this up more seeing as maybe the fatigue is less from working out at home ? I’ve been lifting for 6 years so fairly experienced.
Upper:
Weighted push up - 70lbs -12, 9, 8, 7
Pull up - 7, 5, 5, 5
Incline weighted push up (myoreps) - 70lbs
Inverted row - 13,9, 8, 7
Tricep extensions - 50lbs - 18, 13, 11, 11
Lat raise(3 sets) - 20lbs - 18, 11, 8

Inverted row - 11, 10, 8, 7
Bicep curl - 20lbs - 16, 8, 7, 7
Rear delt flye - 20lbs - 15, 11,10, 9
Lower(same workout for both lower days)
Heel elevated dumbbell goblet squat (myoreps,1 Set to 1 rir, then 3 cluster sets). - 70lbs - 13, 5, 5, 5

Against the wall hack squat (3 sets)- 45lbs - 9, 8, 7

I don't know.....the weekly volume per muscle looks to be way too high for 2 RIR...
You get the majority of growth stimulus in just a few sets with 2 RIR. Any more sets and you are greatly increasing your recovery time for a tiny bit more growth. You don't even need the isolation movements for your biceps and triceps imo. The whole point here is to be able to recover and supercompensate so that you can actually progress. I never see the point in isolating triceps and biceps as they get hit plenty with compounds.Last edited by Animal2692; 01-28-2021 at 04:58 PM.
