    Push being 2 sleeps away from each other would mean you’re asking for FBEOD recovery demand whilst applying U/L volume. I’d space your push work apart if possible or just do 1 set of each push movement on your Upper. First few sessions may go well, but I think you’ll start running into a wall at some point.

    Any reason you opted to do Legs before Push? Do you normally do this and how did it go if so?

    287 on wake , cycle kicked back up ! Last small push before diet time , will likely see me get to 296/297 over the next couple months then I’m very happy. Upper today. General Fatigue is very high now from workload but it is what it is .

    Exciting things about to unfold , we get into the unit for MFG very soon, so that will be fitted out with an MFG show room gym , and then we have the room there for racking to store and fulfil kit.

    I’m about to move out of the warehouse as it needs racking as we are entirely overflowing in the main warehouse , I am moving into my own private gym space , it’s very nice , I will decor that nice as we bought the warehouse so we are our landlords so can do whatever we want in there .

    The huge warehouse that’s just come on the market across the road from the gym , we have just put an offer in to buy as well , it’s a perfect size for our own manufacturing. That will allow us to cut out costs a touch more for wholesale , and with the tbjp eu and eu wholesale site now active that’s a big deal.

    2026 is defo the busiest year of my life so far with the most moving parts , the launching of new things , and the expansion of things . And competing again too 🙂

    Excited for this bud. Big wins over the hill. 🙌🏼

    Confused about the adductors/extensions comment. Is this just a language barrier issue or are you saying you’ve swapped adductor for leg extensions as a substitute? I’m thinking you mean leg press?

    A lot of pressing there for FBEOD. Session A has dips AND tricep ISO with two other presses. I mean, if you can recover from that, crack on. Same with Session B and C.

    I’d spread your presses and dips over the 3 sessions personally. High smith on A with a Dip, low incline DB on B with a close grip and machine press on C with a JM Press.

    Everything else looks fab, I just don’t understand the adductor/extensions comment thing I mentioned above.

    Thanks for your reply.
    I meant that there is no direct adductor work because the machines are too light, that’s why I do leg extension 3 times. (in other gym I was doing leg extension on A, adductor on B, leg extension on C)
    So when you say high smit with dips on A, do you mean no chest focused exercise and no triceps isolation? Because I do my dips focusing on triceps and obviously high incline focusing on shoulders. [/quote]
    Ah ok. You’ll get plenty of adductors on your hacks, presses also.

    You’ll incorporate chest on your dips, but maybe even stick a fly in there, although it was just an example.

    Everything else looks good.

    You need to do what benefits you most. If doing more warm ups helps you perform your work sets better and as a result you perform effective reps to grow, it’s all good.

    It sounds like you’re in tune with what you need and the volume you need to reach your goals, so give it a whirl and update us as you go.

    Is it better to use the infrastructure of a firm with a ‘mixed view’ reputation or build your own?

    Expansion is never instant, but worth the wait. 👌🏼

    Looks good.

    As the guys have said, progression isn’t always instant, for a run of sessions your 7th (for eg) rep will get easier and easier and easier until the 8th offers itself.

    Agree with Rich on this. If you train 2on 1off with intent and accuracy, you’ll be glad of the rest day every 3 days.

    Just do a rear delt fly whilst you’re at the cable stations already.

    I stopped at “I’m seeing slow but consistent results”

    That’s where the gold is bud. There’s no fast track method to this, it’s a game of repetition and patience.

    Upper/Lower is giving consistent progress. So keep doing the thing that’s giving you what you want. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I’ve done steps on wake, cardio later and cardio on wake fasted and steps later and it doesn’t really change anything for me. Notice zero difference at all because my steps aren’t all done in one hit. I break them up throughout the day.

    For beginner/intermediates I’d say 1 set per movement. Jordan did what worked for him and his recovery capabilities. I’d never get away with replicating it, most wouldn’t tbh.

    Do you recover for your next Lower with 5 sets quads?

    You could go with something like this…

    Abs x 2/3
    Leg Curls x 2
    Hip Thrust/Glute Drive x 2
    Leg Extensions x 2
    RDL x 1
    Leg Press x 1
    Calves x 2

    You arrange the order to suit, I’ve ordered it this was so you get a bit of respite between your big ham/glute lifts. In 3 days time you’d do Lower A and be fresh (if not, lower volume).
