Thanks Nolan1009. That's really useful and interesting.

Do you do bulgarian split squats? - they are a good one to throw in and I would imagine that you would be able to do them with what you have.[/quote] i have never done them seriously or weighted no - i will look them up and add them in.
-
interesting - i can easily change round the order of my workouts or even what body parts i put together each day. My reason for doing it like this is i have felt my shoulders are lacking so i have been giving these their 'own' day to get enough sets in. If i add them onto a push/chest day i have felt in the past i don't…

great ok - so leave the deadlifts out of the back days and make day 6 the 2nd leg day of the week. Split the compounds (squat and deadlift) with isolation or mix them up? i need a leg press really but cant afford one right now - i train at home.
-
ok - i will do that, thanks. Only reason i havent before is because if i did deadlift on Monday with the back they wtill hurt from Fridays legs session and if i do them with thursday back they hurt for my friday leg session. How much do i need to worry about DOMS?
-
Thanks very much - that sounds good.
-
Thanks for the reply. i have been lifting for around 6 years although only seriously for 2 yrs. Typically on a chest/back day it would include bent over rows, wide pull ups, cable low rows and then various isolation rows along with barbell/dumbell bench press and various cable and machine isolation for chest also. Legs -…

Thanks for the reply's. I cant find the articles now but i remember reading an article of Ben Palkuski a while ago on it.

It's absolutely lovely having my job be something i simply do during the middle of my day :flowerforyou:[/quote] totally agree - even if the middle of the day seems to last about 10hrs too long! :)
-
same here - and getting it done first thing allows all day to get in the right nutrition.

i workout everyday from 3.30am - 4.30am as my work situation has changed and its not nearly as bad as i expected - in fact i am enjoying them more now than i did when i did them at midday. Maybe a workout at 5.30am ?

hi - live in Gillingham, Kent.
-
True - glute muscles are more central rather than outer edges. However to have more impact on the outside of those muscles try squating light weight with 4 second negatives and sets of 8 reps (so each set is over 30 seconds of time under tension - 4 seconds down and 1 up) and really squeeze through your heels as if you are…

Thats great - thanks.

Yeh i'm pretty sure with my food - i either measure it out in weight or in cups and pack it all up the night before as i'm out all day. I guess i need to play around with adding 100 or so extra calories on for a few days to see the reaction and add more as i go?
-
Yes - i never gained weight fast which suited me really - but usually would expect to see 2-3lbs up most months and some size gains on measurements but the last 3 months its all stayed still. I do 6 workouts a week and vary them every 3-4 months.
-
i do lift weight already, i have been for around 5yrs now and have gained just under 20lbs. My problem at the moment with eating before workout is my only time for 6 days of the week to workout is from 4-5am, so much of a meal before this doesn't work for me. This could be why i have plateaued recently even though i'm…
-
So eat more carbs and make sure carbs are complex to keep any body fat increase to minimum?
