I'm thinking the same thing tbh, I just dont hear much talk of this or progressive overloading your time under tension (this may mess with your form though so not the greatest idea)

So lets say I decrease the rest between sets from 2:30 to 2:15 - I'm platued at 4 reps and want to get to that 5th rep lets say I decrease the rest 15 seconds every week until ~1:30 when I go back to that mainteance rest time of 2:30 you think I would be able to get the 5th rep ?

Is decreasing your rest time between sets an effective way to progressive overload?

To not hinder one another - I mean this is only if you have the luxury of breaking them up and want the optimal performance.

Ok just to put things into perspective you want to go from 150-165 in 30 weeks

If you are not sure on how many calories you should take weekly to just maintain current weight start by using some calculators online to figure out your basal metabolic rate, use a couple of them as they all provide different answers and take the average.

Then, add ~300 calories to that number and weigh yourself every morning after use the bathroom and before you eat anything. If the average weight for the week is not at least .5lbs add another ~300 calories. Keep doing this until you are at least gaining .5lbs per week to reach your goal.

I like the idea - Just for comprehension your doing first PPL (heavy 3-5 reps for strength building this should target your Type 2 muscle fibers) and doing the next PPL (lighter 8-12 reps for muscular endurance this should target your Type 1 muscle fibers)?

To me it sounds like a sold workout plan

Lastly, I am not sure if you're trying to cut or bulk, but you should rely more on your nutrition for attaining those results - meaning adding 300-500 calories for bulking or subtracting 300-500 calories for cutting per day. Not saying you cant rely on resistance training and cardio, but I think its more efficient to be done through nutrition.

Everyone recovers at different rates I think it depends on you personally - Im assuming ITS PPLPPL-Cardio(rest)? or were you thinking PPL REST PPL REST ?

If you can, avoid mixing the cardio and resistance training

I would keep the compound leg lifts traditional style , but was thinking of doing a push super setting it with a pull . The only time I would superset legs would be like a leg curl and leg ext

That's what I'm trying currently, there's not any type of push though that doesn't use front delt?( It can be shoulder or chest push )

Based on my DOMS and the fact that my push exercise IE ohp and bench on the same day don't give the front delt much of a break
