Hi all,
this is last week from John Meadows Gamma Bomb (hypertrophy program), and I would like to back to basics with General Bulking Routine (Lyle McDonald).
New routine will be:
Lower A: Squat 4x6; RDL 4x6; Lunge 3x10; Seated Leg Curl 3x10; Standing Calf 4x15; Rear Delt Raise 3x10.
Upper A: Bench Press 4x6; Meadows Row 4x6; Incline DB Press 3x10; Lat Machine 3x10; DB Lateral Raise 3x10; Rope Pushdown 3x8; Hammer Curl 3x8.
Lower B: Deadlift 4x6; Leg Press 4x6; Standing Leg Curl 3x10; Leg Extension 3x10; Seated Calf 4x15; Rear Delt Raise 3x10.
Upper B: Incline Bench Press 4x6; Chin Up 4x6; Dips 3x10; DB Row 3x10; DB Lateral Raise 3x10; CGBP 3x8; Barbell Curl 3x8.
Week 1 80% 1RPM
Week 2 85% 1RPM
Week 3-7 85% 1 RPM (I'll try to add some reps on main lift)
Week 8 Deload
What did you think about?
 
Looks pretty good and definitely a change from gamma bomb. If that style of training fits your goals then you should be good to go

Hi Empiremind, I changed something:

Lower A: Squat 3x6-8; RDL 3x6-8; Leg Extension 3x10-12; Seated Leg Curl 3x10-12; Standing Calf 4x15; Rear Delt Raise 3x10-12; Lateral Raise 3x10-12.

Upper A: Bench Press 3x6-8; Meadows Row 3x6-8; Incline DB Press 3x10-12; Lat Machine 3x10-12; Rope Pushdown 3x8-10; Hammer Curl 3x8-10.

Lower B: Front Squat 3x6-8; RDL 3x6-8; Leg Press 3x10-12; Standing Leg Curl 3x10-12; Seated Calf 4x15; Rear Delt Raise 3x10-12; Lateral Raise 3x10-12.

Upper B: OHP 3x6-8; Chin Up 3x6-8; Dips 3x10-12; DB Row 3x10-12; CGBP 3x8-10; Barbell Curl 3x8-10.
 
looks good to me. I’m not familiar with Lyle McDonalds training styles, but the layout looks ok. Personally I would put my shoulder work with the upper body stuff, but if you prefer it like that, or that is what the layout calls for then I guess it’s fine.
