powertraining and hypertrophy all in one weeks traning okay to do ?

[flyguy6661]

seen a few posts on this and looks up my street
so you do 3 days on 1 day of 3 days on 1 day off & so on, first 3 days being heavy low rep training, rest day then back for 3 days doing 10-15 rep training
monday : push 5 x 5 bench press, 5 x 5 shoulder press, 5 x 5 dips
tuesday: legs 5 x 5 box squats, 5 x 5 leg press
wednesday: pull 5 x 5 rack pulls, 5 x 5 pull ups 5 x 5 bent over rows
thursday: off
friday: push 4 x 10 dumbell press, 4 x 10 crossovers, 4 x 10 laterall raises, 4 x 10 skullcrushers
saterday: legs 4 x 10 front squats, 4 x 10 leg extensions, 4 x 10 hamstring curls
sunday: pull 4 x 10 pull ups, 4 x 10 cable row, 4 x 10 reverse grip B B rows
monday: off
etc etc
would you class this as overtraining, not something id do naturall as probally would be abit much but on cycle ??? train about hour or less.
guess you would get strong and not miss out on building muscle mass so you can have both in a weeks split

if i were to do something like this i would go:

Monday - upper body power (heavy weight, low reps)
Tuesday - lower body power
Wednesday - off
Thursday - upper body hypertrophy (lighter weight, more reps)
Friday - lower body hypertrophy
Saturday/Sunday - off

only thing with that is hitting chest,back,delts,traps,triceps and biceps in one session is way to much for me, especially if you want to hit 2-3 exercises each body part on high rep days

I agree with kronik420

[flyguy6661]

do you not agree tho its abit much all in one session especially if its in under 60 minutes ? i wont be able to train hard enough, supersetting isnt my cup of tea not being hard more i dont feel i do so good

[Schwarzenegger]

I personally don't like upper/lower splits etc

I do one body part/day

Kronik had an ok one but under 60min is not possible for that

The op's first day was ridiculous the other days after were OK but nothing stellar

I think kroniks was better than op's tho

[flyguy6661]

op's ???? whats that & if you mean me whats wrong with 5 x 5 training on chest, delts n tri's ?

[SEOINAGE]

simple follow kroniks but dont do 3 exercises per body part

I would not know what to do with myself if I only had to do 16 sets of 10 in a workout lol. I cannot find it in myself to count cable work toward my rep goal. Those are bonus items you earn to do lol.

GVT three x 10 sets of 10 M-F or die.

just pick a few key (compound) exercises like squats, deads, bench, chin ups. you can use the same exercises on hypertrophy days as you do on power days, just adjust the weight/reps/sets. workout should take 30-60 minutes...

depends on your goals, if strength is your main goal then i would just go with some sort of 5x5 program...

Honestly you cannot efficiently do both. They are different aspects of strength and are to be trained differently. Powerlifting work outs train something called limit strength which is your bodies ability to turn as many muscle fibres as possible on for one all out repetition. Hypertrophy training is different. I would recommend sticking to one type of training for 8-12 weeks and moving to the next. It shouldnt be hard to find a periodized program for both goals online somewhere. Or if you do your own research creating a periodized program shouldnt be terribly difficult even if you have never done it.
