So a small Update:
I like this style of training very much. There is some kind of competition against myself.
What I figured out is that it is extremely hard to beat my push numbers everytime. So i look at it this way: if I can progress on at least half of the push exercises I consider it a win (as muscles overlap).
I also figured out that I focused too much on chest in my expectations. To look bigger I need more delts and back. I think here is quite more to gain.
A small drawback are most of the high rep push exercises. It gets very yanky sometime during the last reps. At least für delt and triceps push. Isolation work fine.
After ~ 7 weeks into this kind of training I can say that I got some more roundness.
-
Yes…I did last time (rest pause +3+3). Tomorrow I’ll see how the biceps feel.
-
Thanks again. That will be incorporated.
The second question yielded towards arm development. I have very long arms (1,97 wingspan against 1,84 height). It seems like they will be thin forever.
In my 4 fullbody rotations I try to overload them both in lengthened and shortened position (as gut as a homegym allows). I don’t Wand to add a ton of volume as I trust Jordan’s recommendation. But is there maybe a tweak for this specific case? Or just pantience?
-
Yes, I have both (and DBs). Do you have a good video that explains this?
-
That are some interesting answers. I also though about this recently. For me, I came to the conclusion to aim on the very low end of weight gain. Maybe a percent per month. More than that it will be likely fat. And if I diet I loose a lot of muscle.
-
I tried some cable pulls to the chest but it gets chakey over the time. Due to Limited equipment in the homegym (no machines) there are Not that much opportunities.
Maybe i could try facepulls für thickness or just use the variations i use for heavy stuff. -

Nutrition:
– I aim to geht at least 2g / Kg of protein in
– the protein is spaced out to four or five protein feedings
– i supplement 25-30g protein bevor and after Training and drink some kind of intra (some eaas) -> maybe too much for some smaller guy
– I hit about mainetenance calories or very small surplus
-
Yes – so now work the new weight up to the top end of the rep range and then make a jump in weight. Rinse and repeat.
Thank you. As I thought.

Thank you for your advice! Like you described I have some unilateral (also for the lower part of the pecs) work. Maybe over some time it will become less different.
