[flat bloom]

you do barbell bench press last?

[snow fractal]

So much wrong its hard to even know what to say

[fallen sluice]

Wdym

[fallen sluice]

Bro what

[flat bloom]

i seen on the chest/ shoulders barbell bench was last

[fallen sluice]

That’s just in a random order

I do them in the order I feel like doin

[snow fractal]

I wont critique it, there is nothing worth in there to save

You'll get a similar answer from everyone else

Just get an actual routine

[fallen sluice]

I have good exercises for back, chest and shoulders, legs, arms, and back, abs and cardio. What tf is wrong with it?

I have compound exercises and isolation

I do 3 sets of each

It has lots of volume

[snow fractal]

To start its all to failure

Its redundant, its split weirdly

Some pretty bad choices of both movement and rep range

[fallen sluice]

Nothing wrong with that

[snow fractal]

Since you clearly belive in your own knowledge, then stick with it

Good luck

[plain hollow]

This is all things considered a non salvageable, poorly constructed routine. Please follow. A premade program.

[fallen sluice]

Broo what’s wrong with it

Genuinely

All blue said was it was split weirdly

[snow fractal]

Reasons why you shouldn't make up your own routine (please take this in a positive and constructive light, this copy pasta exists because this comes up a lot):
-The primer and RR exist, were designed by experts, and are well documented as very effective.
-You likely do not have the knowledge required to make a good, balanced routine on your own.
-You likely do not have the knowledge to understand why this is.
-You can make some modifications to the RR if you need to. The progressions are already pretty close to "choose your own adventure" as it is, and we can help you incorporate a little extra or take out things you don't like.
-If you are dead set on making your own routine and ignoring the amazing and free routines already made for you, reading Overcoming Gravity 2 cover to cover might get you to a point where this is feasible. It is not a short book.
-If you think you need a special routine catered to your specific scenario, please clearly state why you think that is, we can likely tell you why the primer or RR will be fine for you.
-If you want us to help you make a special routine, please understand that this is beyond "free help on the internet". You will need to pay someone knowledgeable for that. We are unlikely to spend time answering all of your questions as you try to make your own routine, as that is essentially the same thing.

Is Arnold split good?

[snow fractal]

The program?

In the gym link?

[fallen sluice]

No just the Arnold split

[snow fractal]

So a bro split

Not

Really

[fallen sluice]

Bruh

I’ve been making progress with this routine

@snow fractal

[snow fractal]

Cool

[zenith lava]

cool cool cool

[plain hollow]

A routine should have, aside from the days you workout, the sets x reps, as well as any method of progression/deload and RPE/RIR scale.

If it doesn't have all of these, it's just a collection of exercises

[snow fractal]

The exercise choice itself is garbo

[plain hollow]

And if a routine is

Exercise X 3 sets to failure, it's probably trash

[fallen sluice]

Lmao what

Going to failure uses all ur strength and energy and 3 sets is the optimal amount for muscular hypertrophy and growth

[fallen sluice]

None of them are it’s a mix of compound lifts with isolation lifts stop shitposting

[plain hollow]

Because it's too subjective and open to interpretation

3 sets to failure, right, is that 3 sets of 3 reps, 10 reps, or 30 reps?

And do you hit the same reps every set or lower if failure is too hard? How do you decide which rep range is best etc?

The people who go to failure all the time are those doomed to be perpetually weak.

[fallen sluice]

Pretty sure 7-15 reps is good for hyperyrophy but I just use a weight that feels good and I could do a solid amount of those reps tho

Counting reps in the gym isn’t fun

Makes it harder

[plain hollow]

If counting is too hard for you, I got some bad news

[fallen sluice]

I can count but it’s a burden to working out, it’s like doing a hobby do u count how many seconds u run while doing a marathon??

No you don’t

You run until u can’t

[plain hollow]

Actually ur wrong, you track ur distance ( source - I've done half marathons)

U dont count every second but that's irrelevant since endurance cardio is not weightlifting

[snow fractal]

No one I know that runs for fun doesnt track thinks

In fact they track everything

As well as cycling

And literally any hobby

Ask zweil how many figures he has and he probably does know

[snow fractal]

Also, what a dumb example, everyone that runs marathons tracks time

Its just that the time is in hour and minutes not just seconds

[snow fractal]

False, being 1 to 2 rir most of the time is the optimal, not failure

[fallen sluice]

What’s rir?

[snow fractal]

Reps in reserve

[fallen sluice]

What’s that supposed to mean

2 reps is not optimal

[snow fractal]

2 reps shy from failure

[fallen sluice]

Well I don’t go to actual failure I just do it until I don’t feel like doing it

That’s my version of failure

[snow fractal]

Thats volitional failure

Its also dumb

Anyway, tired of talking about nothing

[fallen sluice]

Isn’t that sorta ur job as a moderator

[snow fractal]

What exactly

[fallen sluice]

Talking about nothing
