I'm going to run Lyle McDonald's generic bulking routine and I have a few questions:
Mon/Thurs
Squat: 3X6-8
SLDL: 3X6-8
Leg press: 2X10-12
leg ext: 2x10-12
Calf raise: 3X6-8
Seated calf: 2X10-12
Tue/Fri: Upper
Flat bench: 3X6-8
BB row: 3X6-8
Incline db bench: 2X10-12
Pulldown: 3X10-12
Triceps: 2X12-15
Biceps: 2X12-15
*I will swap out Incline db bench for shoulder press on Upper Body Day 2.
-Should I keep the Lower body workout the same for both days? Is squatting and doing SLD two times a week alright without taxing my CNS? Or maybe switch to Deadlifts,legpress, leg ext and leg curl or L2 instead of squats and SLD?
-Should I add some trap work?
-How does the overall volume look? I did L1 on Monday and have some mad DOMS and I gotta hit legs again tomorrow.Should I lower the volume?
-Any other opinions/comment?
Thanks guys
