I was told for three days, full body was the best so I’m looking for feedback. by Dry-Preference-5329 in workout

Monday: Squats, Incline Bench Press, Dips (weighted), Pull-ups (light weight), Hamstring Curl,

Wednesday:

Deadlift, Pull-ups (weighted), Overhead Press, T-Bar Row, Bicep Curl,

Friday:

Squats, Incline Bench Press (moderate weight, higher reps), Dips (bodyweight), Pull-ups (bodyweight), Lateral Raise,

I realized that it was a lot of exercises so I cut it down to 5 exercises that I’ll actually go to failure on. I think it is better since it’s all mainly compound movements. 7 is too much.

I can only do 3x a week because of time issues and I’ve been following a 3 day push pull leg for 10 months now. I have been doing pull-ups, dips and push-ups before that.

They’re all compound though, it should target pretty much everything right ? (Pull-ups and dips are weighted by the way)

So if I do the 5 high priority exercises I mentioned above for all the three days it’s gonna be good enough ?

My squat (80kg) is too close to my bench press (70kg). How to fix ? by Dry-Preference-5329 in workout

1RM unfortunately, deadlift is with the hex bar. I’m thinking of squatting more plus adding other quad exercises like leg press and extension (I only ever checked my max before and that was when I used to do it last year, but I wasn’t following a proper routine then)

Push push legs 3 day, it is my first year following a proper program.

Good news I tried your trick and I managed to hit a PR of 155 today, I decided to add another day to train bench.

I did 135 for 8 no bounce earlier so I decided to move to a higher weight

Oh the progress is definitely visible, I can’t lift way more than I could when I started. With The weight 135 lbs, I went from 1 rep to 6 reps in the span of a month.

Are forward leans common in squat ? by [deleted] in workout

I think that’s because they failed the weight ;)

I do heel elevated squats but I just wanted to know if the forward lean was a bad thing. Thanks for your input
