EOD thanks for your additional info, so I would personnally let 48h in between your lower body trainings, but I mean if you wanna train more often than every other day, full body will not be possible as your muscles need to rest enough time or you won’t grow

replace the belt at the belt squat machine by a close grip and do the same movement
Can you tell us also how u organize your week with the split you wrote ?
My doubts here are that you don’t rest enough btw your lower body sessions and for a significant glutes growth, you need a lot of rest if intensity is the right one
Also if you ask us help for glutes growth, it means you have more quads and hams than glutes, so I would always start the lower body exercises with glutes, as you will have more energy for thoses exercises. So I would place rdl and hipthrust before any other lower exercises
Also can you show us your physique for us to advise you the best we can ?

Hipthrust are def a must, they are very complete !
Basically for a perfect glutes growth you need :
A squat variation (lunges/squat go in this one)
A stretching variation (rdl goes in this one)
A hip extension variation (hipthrust goes in this one)
A kickback variation
An abduction variation (seated abduction or abduction with the cable)
So in your question you got the answer : no.
Adduction and abductions are not enough for glutes growth, and adductors are more part of your legs than your glutes though.
You need a squat(or lunges), a hipthrust, a rdl, a kickback variation, and an abduction movement.
And mind that the squat/lunges movement can target the glutes (and hams) or the quads so be careful for the execution if you wanna target your glutes (you upper body will have to lean forward more than on a quads focus variation).
I would do in this order
Hipthrust
Kickback
Rdl
Squat
Abduction.
Now as you go for a full body, it’s gonna be complicated for you if you want a glutes growth as glutes workout are very taxative, as much as a quads session.
I would go for a muscular group split personally if my goal is a significant glutes growth
If you don’t wanna change your full body
I would always do glutes first with hipthrust, bulgarian lunges and then a squat for quads and rdl for glutes/hams.

Hello Ben. I would refeed for some days, just to remove stress, see some progression at the gym and more energies.
As the others 2/3 could be good.
But also you mentioned going to holidays soon, depending on your goals ofc
But holidays are holidays if bodybuilding is your hobby : so enjoy, track your proteins daily at least and watch not being overfed or underfed. But disconnect a little or not : do what makes you feel good in holidays without messing your efforts of the past weeks.
If bodybuilding is not just a hobby and you aim to compete in the future, or maybe you gonna compete soon : stick to your plan in holidays, when being sick it is counterproductive to push things, but when being in holidays, you have no reason to do a diet break

Hello Tobi.
I do yes. But I am very very careful while training : spend much more time to warm up, I am using for sure my sleeves on that day, cause fatigue car put yourself in troubles.
Also to sleep better, you have to cut boosters, caffeine, and also stop using screens before going to sleep.
Bad technique but efficient : close the eyes and count the sheeps.
You need to empty your mind from thoughts and listen your breath

MemberAugust 7, 2024 at 1:50 pm in reply to: Combining high frequence/High intensity training with runningHello Xaver
The small problem here is that running is very demanding on cardio and for your legs
I am afraid that a full body alrernated with running 3x per week will not let you recover properly
I think you should go for a split like this:
One muscle group per training day for upper body
Only one lower body workout per week far from your running days
That’s the only option I see here
Maybe better to work on a rotation instead of working on a week schedule

Then full day of work on online posing lessons
I am a tad pissed of as the post office was closed yesterday and also today, but the time table written on the door was the good one, it’s also not a national day in france, so i cannot have my package
Post office is a real pain in the ass 😭 particularly in august
Well, rest day of gym today

Itchy scalp / dry scalp is one of the secondary effect of steroids.
It can also come from something else, ofc, but as a non natural athlete, this is the main cause for me.
It happens often on bikinis, wellness, figure athletes.
You HAVE to make a blood work yes, and check your complete hormonal panel.
Itchy/dry scalp is the step number one
Then you start to feel pain / sensitivity in your scalp on your roots and hair will break/fall easier, that’s the number 2 step.
It’s related to dht and also to the hair follicule itself yes, if you did not change your hair routine, it cannot come from the products (shampoos) you use.
Also steroids can have a significant impact on the 5 alfa redutase 2, depending on the dose/molecule/duration of use and personal response which is proper to each individual.
Also coupled with a deficit, it might slow down drastically the growth of your hair, so the normal cycles of your hair can be messed up.
The most important for you now : is get this blood work done, and being followed by a doctor which is used to work with bodybuilders and who can advise you on the next steps.
My doctor is super great André Rizzuti on instagram (he is brasilian, so he will not be able to give you any prescriptions but at least he knows his thing)
