Can't critiqie a plan without knowing your goals.

Overall health brought on by resistance training and cardio. A routine that is based on muscle growth while impacting fat loss without the use of enchancing substances; excluding protein powder and creatine.

Basically falling back into a solid foundation that'll give me a 360 degree view of where I'd like to go next. Which is probably mass building while utilizing tried and true methods. Such as dosing Deca to appropriate levels to get mass building without the extremity of wanting to compete.

Hope that helps. LMK

Gotcha. Thx for the VERY detailed answer.

Anything we do; training, diet, gear, etc. falls to this: if it works for you; do it.

Typically most guys will need to change their training routine every so often. Some guys 2 weeks, some guys 2 months.

I am not a big fan of this plan. 1st reason is beacuse a lot of if is somewhat vague.

Example:

Hamstring: high volume
Glute machine: healthy heavy
Calf raises: higher rep

I also am not a proponent of 2 bodyparts in one day. Again, this may work for some guys but with your goals I do not recommend it.

I have had a lot of success in offseason AND prep for shows with lower/upper/upper:

Legs (quad based)
Shoulders
Chest
Glutes/Hams
Back
Arms

I follow a 2-3 day on 1 day off protocol. Rest = results.

For you/your goals I'd go with 4-5 exercies on each day @ 10-12 reps. Tried and true. Switch the movements when you stop seeing/feeling results.

You also have to decide if you want to add mass or be lean. Unless you are 1% of the genetic freaks out there (which we are likely not) doing cardio 2x a day is going to keep you from adding mass. The cardio plan you have is similar to what I'll do when I am 8 weeks and less from a show and when I am getting as lean as possible.

Stick to 4 days a week fasted, no shake, no food, then start your 6 meals.

Do not run deca alone.

I'm not 1% nor even 5%. Where I fall in this is to far gone to be recognized. Maybe in my teens I could have... But even then... Being a fan of Jay Cutler (New England FTW lol) I would have needed gear even in my prime to shine.

The whole 8 weeks out!! Thing is beyond my stratosphere. I'm happy just remaining in training mode.

What you disliked in particular.
I max out the glute lower back machine but I strain on the lower back raises in general. So maybe remove this machine as there is no point and maximize on lower back raises whilst having the option to hold a 25 pounder+ for results. Hamstring and quad raises on the machine. I can program a 10-12 rep routine but after deadlifting, leg pressing and hack squaring. Figured that repping till favor was another route to go. Perhaps not. Same fold with calf raising, 10-12 rep range can be found.

I see your routine. Should abs fall into shoulder and arms day? Fasted cardio is something I need to work too. I feel to depleted without a protein shake and coffee to wake me up as of such.

Edit: You best bet I won't do Deca without test. I wouldn't dose Deca at even150mg weekly without it!!

No one is in that 1%, that's my point. That's why you need to decide A) add mass B) cut down

"8 weeks out" if my show were 8 weeks from this weekend, I'd be "8 weeks out" or 5, or 4, etc. At that time the claories are lessened and the cardio is increased. This dops as much body fat as possible leading into the show. If you're goal is to add some mucsle now then you have to carry around some fat and water. Not saying be grossly overweight but the fat & water will help you move more weight; thus adding some size. Doing cardio 2 a day is counterproductive to your goals (now)

You can train abs and calves a few times a week after your training. Since I have 2 leg days I hit a minimal amount of calf work at the end of each leg day. I am lucky that I can barely train calves and I have them.

Training will be a little trail and error. Your arm & chest days look good. Unfortunately you'll eventually adapt to that so be prepared to change it up.

Give back and shoulders seperate days and I'd move your shoudler pressing movement (dumbells press or smith machine press) the the beginning of the session (DO include the proper warm up)
