6-8 sets, split up with two back exercises. So two exercises and each exercise has 3-4 sets in it.

**** bro, you only do 6-8 sets for back?Quote:

4 for mass/depth, 4 for shape/width.
There's not really too much more to tear up!

wide pull up and row thats all you need IMO ;)
sorry if i am not understanding but thats 8 total exercises for back. Do you only do like 4 a week doing 2 exercises twice a week and then the next week do the other 4 ?? See I never incorporated back with bis because I was doing like 5 exercises for back and then when I went to touch my bis I couldnt do anything.Quote:

I truly hit failure on everything (almost) that I do... My back routine will revolve around bent over rows, wide grip chins, lat pull downs, wide grip cable rows, and deadlifts.
What rep ranges are you using?
It's never about how MANY sets you do, it's about the sets you do, and what they aim to accomplish.

deads deads and more deads!!! most imortant are deads, rows/chinsQuote:

so 2 exercises for back and 2 exercises for bi's that workout seems interesting... i read somewhere that you hit everything twice a week swole, if so i can understand this and what would your split look like?
3 on one off and repeat (low volume) or two on, one off, one on, one off, then repeat (mid-volume)
~SC~
thanx bro
so i guess it would be something like
Day 1: chest delts tri's
day 2: legs
day 3: back traps bi's
day 4: off
day 5: repeat
well i think i might give this i try and just see how i like it
Dont forget soreness is not a factor of growth!! But I agree my back needs higher sets.. As far as I know Swole does not count his warm up sets in those 8!Quote:
