Questions about bulking routines

[Fatal Wisdom]

Alright so recently I learned that more compound, HIT type programs are better for bulking than isolations,

I found this routine on bodybuilding.com

Squats 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Leg Extensions 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Leg Curls 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Dumbbell Pullovers 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Barbell Overhead Shoulder Press 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Seated Rows 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Bench Press 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Barbell Bicep Curls 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Tricep Extensions 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Weighted Pullups 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Weighted Dips 1 X 8 - 10 reps
Standing Calf Raises 1 X 8 - 12 reps
Abs - 1 X 10 - 15 reps

Everyother day you do this, No i know you can sub excercises and what not, but my question is there are different sections of every muscle so how is one set of flat bench press going to stimulate growth in the upper lower, and middle parts of your chest?

And when it comes to subing, can it be ANY excercise?

Because dumbell pullovers really bother my rotater cuff, so doing heavy weight will definately rip something haha, but what other motion works what that does?

also, would it defeat the purpose if i did more than one set per excercise?


Thanks guys.

You may want to move this to the Workout section. This is bulking but more nutrition based.

Look at the path of where this thread is posted:

AnabolicMinds.com Forum > Nutrition Forum > Bulking

This is the bulking section of the nutrition group, the question asked is better suited for the training section.

In recent studies, they found the all 3 responses to be completely useless.

My bad for trying to point you in the right direction.

What you are talking about is very similar to HST.

Your opinion on HST training?

You sure they weren't talking about the uselessness of this thread in that "study":
Just for fun..


All they were stating was the fact that your posted a TRAINING based question in a NUTRITIONAL section of the form, therefore pointing out an error (and a way to get your answers) in your post and making andmaking it completly legitimate.
