Re: simple compound exercise routine

That routine looks fine and will definitely get the Bully stamp of approval!

I would definitely throw in the incline DB's though.

Re: simple compound exercise routine

I'd drop the lunges and Bent Over rows, the rest looks fine.

Have you read BRAWN?

If not get a copy.

Re: simple compound exercise routine

add sldls to legs day instead of curls
beef up push day with more chest work
change reps to suit growth

3 x 6 on all choices are suboptimal

Re: simple compound exercise routine

Hi
Im a newbie but I'm puzzled to have read the recomendation to drop the bent over rows!... why?.. isn't it the best back exercise after the deadlift?

I love the row and I thoight it was one of those moves along with the bench press, the squat and the deadlift that u can't afford Not to do

??? im confused now

Bumping for Nytol.......
I'm puzzled by that too.
I love bent over rows and they certainly work for me.
However, Nytol knows his stuff so I 'll look forward to hearing why from him.

Nytol believes in doing very little to make sure over training does not occur however!!!! that does not mean the training is easy every set has to be total failure.

I fully agree look up doggcrap methods 1 set per body part and 2 for back one for thickness aka chins and one for thickness aka deadlifts no need for the rows if your putting the work in.
That said if your a fag and cant handle training hard then yeah throw in another ten exersises to hit every thing from every angle for no results
