Some how I unsub from this thread and way behind ??
Recap, he's getting his power rack this week, has a barbell to lift with, has been on point with diet and training for the last 5-6 weeks. Going to a lower volume higher frequency training model. Oh, and still killing it. Sound about right @BOSSMAN ?

Spot on brother!!!! Ahhhh....cals been a lil high but the training should offset. Rack came in yessaday!!!! As of right now, Sunday is garage renovate day. Gotta move stuff around, put in flooring, build rack, move equipment in place. Would be ideal to have my mirrors and tv, but that ain't happening this weekend.

Yeah man, you know now I'm torn. Was hooked on the lemon lime for about 2 years and switched over to the clear and it's been really convenient just being able to the throw the clear in whatever.

Do both Creatine is cheap enough to have options. Sometimes you feel like a lime, sometimes you don't!

Didnt get in my evening workout yesterday as planned. No biggie, had to take my daughter to the dermatologist at 230 and by the time I got home I decided to work on my yard and flower beds. (Happy wife, happy life)!.

Best thing about it is, I feel like I'm I a good place right now with training. I'm not stressing out about when or how or nothing. It's just all falling in place. I can train in the am, if not the evening is available. Now that will change shortly as I will start lining up lawncare in February but try to keep it to just the weekend until daylight savings comes back.

I am feeling really strong right now and my endurance is through the rough. I have to pin point this to food, rest, and no stress.

Training schedule is right how I want it and sunday is gonna be a day I have been waiting and talking about for a long time. It will he a rearrange garage day for new equipment. Almost 85% complete after sunday.

Still killing the volume I see. If you are planning to hit chest twice a week then I would cut volume a bit. You you hit 21 sets here, that is enough for the whole week. If doing twice think 10-12 sets per workout and maybe increase the intensity you are hitting them with instead. Like if the sets of 12 are more warm up sets then cut them out during later exercises and maybe do one or two less movements per workout.

Personally I would look at doing 5-6 sets of your main pressing movement for the day and then 2 more exercises for chest with maybe 2-3 very hard sets each. Say 5-6 sets flat bench, 3 sets machine incline with the last one to failure, and the same with some sort of fly or pec deck. Then the next chest workout do 5-6 sets barbell incline, 3 sets Hex Press with last set to failure or one rep shy, and a different fly movement to failure or one rep shy, or high rep pec focused pull overs. Trust me you push like that and your chest will be toasty and growing quickly.

Said this to him before as well...
Quality > Quantity

I personally feel Kevin would make much faster and better progress hammering out lower volume, better execution and range of motion and focusing on TUT( Time Under TEnsion)

now I have never seen any of his lifts or videos of him lifting. Most people love chasing volume and subpar intensity (Common in most gyms) this may not be the case, but I am uncertain.

So on the barbell bench/incline
5x5x5x5x5

75% 80% 85% 90% 95% of max weight?

Then of course I have other exercises I can rotate weekly but make barbell bench/incline a priority on the 2 chest days

That looks better, I think you will find your mindset will change as far as intensity knowing you need to get it all in with limited sets. You might go with failure on the pec dec too and maybe higher rep scheme there. Your isolation moves tend to lend themselves to a little higher reps. Also perhaps use a rep range moreso than prescribed reps on the accessory movements. If you stay with the 10-8-6 mindset but did a range of 10-6 then you could push the weight and autoregulate based on strength that day. IE start at a very hard 10 where fatigue makes it hard to hit 10 on the 2nd set then on the 3rd it is even lower due to fatigue.

Got it, this needs to be done for chest, shoulders, back, and lower body?

As a way to push intensity try cluster sets on the accessory movements. 3 work sets with a total rep goal using the same weight. So say you set your target 30 reps with 155 on incline machine bench, your first set to one shy of form failure is 12, 9, 7 that is 28 so next time you do the same weight because you didn't hit 30. Then the next week you do 13, 10, 7, that is 30 so you go up 10lbs and maybe the following week you get 26-27 and repeat it until you get 30 that makes sure you are continuing to follow the progressive overload principle. This will ensure you progress and grow.

Think maybe 35-45 rep target on flyes and things like a pull over. 25-35 compound movements.

Very basic application of the principles and very effective.

Yes Sir, you can do a little more on hams, and quads for lower if you treat them separately or for the accessories. Like 1 major thigh then 2 for quad 2 for hams or separate them by every other workout with a major compound being the focus for each lower body.
