Training split

[valcon]

Age=59
Height=5-9
Weight=160 Lb
BF=15%
Years training= life long


Recently with my previous training split I developed a bicep tendon rupture (bottom tendon) from deadlifts,

I’m just wondering if I’m not getting enough recovery with my split and that might have caused the rupture.

Sun=back
Monday=chest
Tuesday=off
Wend=legs
Thru=shoulders
Fri= arms
Sat=off

I do 18 sets of 10 reps on each body part

What kind of split would you guys recommend

I don't see anything "wrong" with the routine if it works for you outside the injury.

At 59 are you on any type of HRT (Test, HGh, Deca , etc)?

If you deadlift using switch grip (one hand up one hand down) you have to alternate the switch. I injured my bicep from deadlift when I was young and stubborn because I could lift 100lbs more with my right palm up.

If you aren't doing switch grip you could look into changing your grip, stance, or both.

I no longer use a underhand grip when I deadlift “ just overhand

I’m not taking any hrt but thinking about starting ( mabie a lack of test is why I had the tendon rupture
