Goal is to lean bulk as much as possible.
What exercises do you usually do? Hour and a half seems a bit excessive when training each body part 2x per week. Decrease your rest periods, increase intensity.
As in go heavy ?Quote:

If lifting 3x per week worked well for you in the past. Do that. Don't worry too much about the "lean bulk". Just bulk up, cut later. Although most on here would say 18% bf is a little high to be cycling...
Well i can wait and cut a bit more. I have VAR i can use to cut. What do u suggest ?Quote:

I typically take wednesdays and the weekends off, but I hit every muscle group once a week. Some weeks I'll throw in a second arm workout, but its strictly lighter weight, more reps. Use as much intensity as you can! That's key. There is no reason you need to spend more than an hour training. I'm in and out in 30 minutes on most days.
Damn PT, you summarized my WOs almost verbatim.Quote:

At 18% bf, cycling, and want to get lean? I would change the workout to lifting one day and plyometrics the next day. You need to keep your heart rate up high enough throughout your workout so you can burn the calories through both cardio + anabolic systems. This is a more efficient way to burn fat.
I look exactly like my avatar and I combine plyo with every workout. My goal is to look lean and tight and not be a strength monster power lifter.
Thats what i do right now. Life one day, cardio next dayQuote:
