Hypertrophy specific routine

[Meloncap78]

Test eq cycle looking for a baseline ideal routine for pure size gains. I prefer 5-6 days a week. 6’2 192 around 13% ish bf.

This is my personal experience so you gotta experiment what works best for you. I have noticed more gains on working out 3 days a week 2 muscle group.

And as other members will agree, your gains come from proper nutrition and not just the workout.

the best routine is generally the one your currently NOT doing . point being is that there is no one perfect routine for hypertrophy. you gotta keep progressing your routines to keep growing.

If you got to 192 pounds at your height doing say for example a 5x5 style main lifts routine. then its clearly time to do something entirely new as that is no longer working for you.. to get to perhaps 205 pounds you now may need to focus on a higher volume higher rep routine.

without knowing the specifics of your whole training programming background, you simply need to do something totally different then what you been doing.

Make it hurt that’s how I know I’m doing it right. If you aren’t fighting through reps you aren’t working out hard enough.

Assuming the food is there this is literally as simple as it gets. You can have the most complicated bicep workout w 40 diff exercises and it won't mean piss if it didn't hurt. No one's legs grow from walking (unless they are morbidly obese) and no ones biceps grow from weak work. Hard intense sweaty hot contractions.

Sometimes good music is the strongest pre workout there is. That's a factor I find detrimental myself, insane difference.

Thanks guys. I think food has always been my issue. This changes now. Weighing and tracking everything has become such an easy part of my routine lately. I don’t use supps any longer (except the gear of course). Everything that goes into my body is 100% whole food cooked at home. If I fail to grow on this cycle putting in the work lifting wise and in the kitchen at 3800 cals daily then there is something else wrong with me.
