    I wouldn’t do ether of those routines…. well I would if I wanted to over training, and reveres my goals of putting my body in a good invariant for hypertrophy...................less is more once again

    deadsx5 flat benchx8 shoulder pressx5 ect ect would overtrain me for sure..

    not to mention the effect on CNS.

    that is way overtraining... stick to heavy compounds movements if u want to grow... For example... rows,squats,deads... cut your workouts in half and do around 4 sets... with reps between 8-2 sometimes 10 at the most
