Hi!

I was hoping that someone may be able to help make things a littls clearer to me.

I have pretty much always worked out using 3 x 8 - 10. After lockdown and being back at the gym, I wanted to take things more seriously and try something new.

In terms of available work out days, 4 a week is doable. I have a 4 month old, so I need to plan around that.. Meaning I can realistically do 2 days at home and 2 at the gym.

For my home workout, I have an adjustable competition kettlebell and also somw powerblock dumbells.. It would make sence for me to focus volume, as the weight is lower. So I can do one day upper, one day lower.

That leaves me with the gym, I want to maximize my 2 days there.

For lower I plan on deadlifts/leg press/leg curl and calf raises.

Upper will be chest press/should press ( machine for support due to injury ) and row. Followed by some kettlebell work

I have been reading about ramp up sets and came across a plan for increasing deadlifts:

1 x 10 warmup set (30-40% of max)
3 x 6 deadlift (70-75% of max)
2 x 5 deadlift (80% of max)
2 x 2-3 deadlift (85-90% of Max)

Can I apply this structure to chest, back and leg press?

Any advice would be great, Im looking forward to starting something new.

Cheers!
