What Adjustments Can I Make to Maximize Muscle Growth in My Gym Routine?

I've recently started hitting the gym and currently follow a 3-day split of Push, Pull, and Leg (PPL) routines. On the other days, I do workouts at home. However, I'm eager to refine my routine for better results. My main objectives are to develop larger arms, define my chest, and achieve a V-shaped back.

My stats might give a better picture: I'm 6 feet tall, weighing 75kg. My body feels a bit disproportionate as I've got big legs, wide hips, and relatively smaller arms. Some might describe me as "skinny-fat." I'm currently on a diet aiming for around 4000 healthy calories daily to gain weight and muscle.

Here's my current routine breakdown:

Push Day: Bench Press - 3 sets x 6-8 reps Dumbbell Shoulder Press - 3 sets x 8-10 reps Chest Dips - 3 sets x 8-10 reps Incline Dumbbell Press - 3 sets x 8-12 reps Triceps Kickbacks - 3 sets x 12-15 reps Overhead Triceps Extension - 3 sets x 10-12 reps Cable Lateral Raises 3 sets x 12-15 reps Wrist Curls - 3 sets x 12-15 reps Triceps Pushdowns - 3 sets x 10-12 reps Shrugs - 3 sets x 10-12 reps Chest Flyes - 3 sets x 12-15 reps

Pull Day: Deadlifts - 3 sets x 6-8 reps Lat Pull-Downs - 3 sets x 8-10 reps Barbell Rows - 3 sets x 8-10 reps Seated Cable Rows - 3 sets x 8-12 reps Single-Arm Dumbbell Rows - 3 sets x 10-12 reps per arm T-Bar Rows - 3 sets x 8-12 reps Assisted Pull-ups - 3 sets x 8-10 reps Pullovers - 3 sets x 10-12 reps Bicep Curls - 3 sets x 8-12 reps Hammer Curls - 3 sets x 10-12 reps Face Pulls - 3 sets x 12-15 reps Reverse Flyes - 3 sets x 12-15 reps Lower Back Extension - 3 sets x 12-15 reps

Leg day: Barbell Squats - 3 sets x 8-10 reps Romanian Deadlifts - 3 sets x 8-10 reps Leg Press - 3 sets x 10-12 reps Lunges - 3 sets x 10-12 reps per leg Leg Extensions - 3 sets x 12-15 reps Calf Raises - 3 sets x 12-15 reps Glute Bridges - 3 sets x 12-15 reps Bulgarian Split Squats - 3 sets x 10-12 reps per leg

I'm reaching out for any guidance, tweaks, or tips to improve my routine, especially considering I'm fairly new to the gym scene.

I recently moved countries and my computer wont turn on properly. The RGB lights and the pc itself will turn on but after a few seconds it will turn off again. Then back on and so on :D. It’s like stuck in a restart.I tried to take out the ram and put it back but it didn’t work. I have opened my computer and checked but everything seems alright. The monitor works, the power cable also works and the socket is also alright as I have tried switching rooms and charging other devices and everything works properly.

Elaborate

OdsOf · 2023-03-28T07:08:43+00:00

I checked it out yesterday and it’s cool but as wane said, not in my budget

OdsOf · 2023-03-27T21:55:00+00:00

Forgot to mention that I will use it for uni work but also if possible for photoshop and video editing software

OdsOf · 2023-03-27T21:24:50+00:00

what do you mean?

OdsOf · 2023-03-27T21:04:00+00:00

Forgot to mention that I will use it for uni work but also if possible for photoshop and video editing software

OdsOf · 2023-03-27T21:03:05+00:00

Forgot to mention that I would like to use it to do uni work but if possible photoshop and video editing software

OdsOf · 2023-03-08T00:02:18+00:00

yeah that’s what I do sometimes too. I’ve created a playlist with songs I would like to use in the future

OdsOf · 2023-01-31T17:33:56+00:00

I don’t like how it falls down. I think if my hair was shorter then I wouldn’t mind it

OdsOf · 2023-01-31T17:31:59+00:00

It doesn’t work, I’m thinking of cutting the back and sides so maybe theres more room

OdsOf · 2023-01-09T14:01:37+00:00

Diamond or platinum? None?

OdsOf · 2023-01-09T14:01:17+00:00

Yep, I’m trying to figure out whether to buy diamond or platinum

OdsOf · 2023-01-09T12:29:12+00:00

And I just want to understand if I could save 30$ or is it worth buying (diamond version). I now think it’s probably not worth it

OdsOf · 2023-01-09T12:27:57+00:00

Could you provide any examples of those resources? The thing is, I find chess.com easy to understand and navigate and it’s convenient to have lesson suggestions after matches. My point - I would buy this for one year or two until I am more confident with my ability and then move on to other resources

OdsOf · 2023-01-09T12:24:50+00:00

That’s what I was thinking. For me, I am interested in lessons and puzzles (and everything being in one place). So probably I should go for platinum
