Yes , or exercise selection causes recovery issue

Let’s say for chest

Am I better off doing 3 sets flies then 3 sets incline dumbbell instead of 2 sets flies 2 sets DB and 2 sets incline smith [/quote]
6 sets vs 6 sets.

Why not just go with what Jordan and Hilly suggested?

Agree with the guys above. Overthinking just leads to you not being in any camp in terms of training methods.

Young lads and lasses are constantly consuming content online that tells them their way is THE best and only way of training and then they’ll consume something contradictory and the confusion takes over.

You’ve got some great athletes on here that you can follow and see how they do things.

When you find a way of training you think you’ll progress with, do it for a long time, not just a few weeks, and be consistent with it.

I’d keep your flat press in on Push and whether or not you choose either an Overhead Press or High Incline Press won’t matter that much. Just hammer it until you stall and then switch.

I’d keep the flys in, I’d even do them first personally. That’s just preference though.

If you enjoy it and you progress (I know it sounds samey and repetitive if you look at other topics like this) then it’s all good.

So, I’ll answer it as though I’d be doing it and I’d advise you to take what you like from it and discard what doesn’t apply to you:

I’d swap the presses around in your Push.

I’d add 1/2 more sets of Upper Back/Shrugs in Pull.

I’d add either a set onto ham curls or do another ham biased hinge (can be an RDL again but in a different rep range).

That’s being picky, but it’s the only way I can give you an answer without saying “if you enjoy it and progress, crack on”.

How would you swap the presses on my Push day more exactly? How would it look like?

Instead of doing the Shoulder Press second in the session, I’d do it first and do your horizontal press after.

Most shoulder/high incline machines (apart from strive/prime) are harder in the lockout so I’d put it first.

“I enjoy this plan and see progressions”

The all important sentence. Improvements aren’t needed if it’s working for you.

Yeah a Gympin and some form tidying would see you right here, as FB clearly works for you and you’re getting the frequency benefits.

If you were doing U/L but can only train x 3 then I’d say do a hybrid of Upper/Lower/FB but there’s no need if you’re progressing.

If you do opt for a Gympin, feel free to use my code BENNERS10 to get yourself some money off.

Are you still wanting to do a FBEOD split? If so just stick your leg stuff at the front of the sessions on both. Maybe add in volume where you can get away with it. Putting them first means they get all the energy into those sets.

FB1: Quads before everything else.

FB2: Hams and Glutes before everything else.

Train them with intensity and a degree of accuracy over time and you’re sorted.

If that is the method of progression you’ve been doing and it’s working, keep doing it…ofherwise why have the rep range in the first place?

Can you progress this?

Will/Do you enjoy this?

If so crack on. Personally for me I’d take the presses away from B and do flys, extra set of laterals and leave my favourite press in as it would be a lot of big compound work for me. You might be fine with it.

Let us know how you get on.
