So i see a lot fighting about ss and splits. So wouldn't it just be possible to do both. like do a split with the compound exercises thrown in like squats, deads, OHP etc.some isolation stuff afterwards

that is what i have always done. kick off a session with the compound exercises i.e. DL for back or Bench Press for chest and then move on to more isolated exercise. I train for strength and size but I do a lot of volume so mass I suppose is more of a priority. If you are interested I will post my routine.

4 sets of 8-12 of each exercise. Try and get through it in 40-50 minutes. Intensity is key. Chest: Bench Press Decline Cable Fly Front raise Incline Dumbbell Press Cable Fly Decline Dumbbell Press Dumbbell Fly Overhead Raise Back: DL Bent over Row Reverse Fly Dumbbell Straight arm push down (I know what I mean) Lat Pulldown Cabel reverse fly One arm row Diverging lat pulldown Shoulders: Side raise Dumbbell Shoulder press or OHP Behind head OHP Behind back shrug Bar front raise Shrugs Cable side raise Dumbbell front raise Arms: bar curl cable pushdown reverse grip row skull crusheers dumbbell curl close grip bench press hammer curl one armed tri extensions Legs: Squats Calf raise Lunges Leg Press Calf press Leg curl Leg extensions I generally fit two days rest in in a week and train the other five. Every other week I condense it down into Chest/tris, back/bis and legs/shoulders to mix it up a bit.

Its better do do SS as a novice because it takes advantage of the novices ability to make dramatic strength gains with relatively low recovery time required. Thats why you do a full body workout 3x a week at the beginning. Once you get to heavier weight your body doesn't recover as quickly, so it makes more since to do a split build around the big four compounds (usually 5/3/1 with accessory work) Here's my current 3 day split. the big four are done 5/3/1 rep range and the assistance exercises are done 3x8-10 and super-set (like Front Squats and barbell shrugs) Squat OHP Front Squat Power Shrugs RDL Reverse Flys BP chins Dips Incline DB curls Incline DB Press BB curls DL Close Grip-BP Pull-ups Skull Crushers Pendlay Rows v-bar pull-downs

>>18005280 they were being sarcastic because you would have to be on steroids to see any results from that much volume.

>>18005542 if your exercise selection is good (you don't do something consisting entirely of curl variations and calf raises or something), you work hard, and eat right you'll make gains

>>18005414 you fucked your back up, see how your shoulders arch forward towards your chest? your chest muscles are so strong compared to the rest of your body they're fucking up your shoulders and back. Stop doing chest for a while and focus on your back.

>>18004624 i pretty much do the same split, just slightly diff isolations after my compounds. 30 mins cardio every day, and light ab work 3 times a week.
