Rep Power: 9 | | | Some Advice on my routine Currently I do 3 days a week and alternate between
A. Squats, Bench Press, Deadlift, Chin-Ups
B. Squats, Overhead Press, Rows, Dips
I'm thinking of not doing squats on the days I deadlift. Usually I do dumbbell curls after my chin-ups. Thats when I was trying to bulk up my biceps. Now I'm currently focusing completely on dieting so bulking isn't an option. Since Im cutting the squats on deadlift days (I don't want my deadlift to suffer from the squats). Should I just keep it at Bench Press/Deadlift/Chin-ups or is there something else I can throw in? I've only been doing this like 3 months with a 3 week break the previous 3 weeks, so I'm still a beginner. If its not necessary for me to really be doing anyhting else, I'm ok with that.
Also, if I shouldn't worry about doing squats and deadlift on the same day right now, I could add it back in.
Let me know what you think. |

Rep Power: 182 | | | Good call, I'm not a fan of doing squats and deads on the same day myself.
You could throw in some unilateral work on each day.
So day 1 could be something like:
Deadlift
Bulgarian Split Squats
Bench
Row
Day 2:
Squat
Single leg Romanian Dead
Overhead Press
Chins |

Rep Power: 8 | | Are you doing strength training to preserve mass while dieting?
I usually leg press and lunges with squat, then alternate 2nd day each week of powerclean and deadlift. |

Rep Power: 9 | | | Right not to preserve mass, yes. I gained a little bit of muscle but I think thats not happening anymore.
I had to look up the single leg deadlift and bulgarian split-squats.
Ive seen people doing the split-squats. The single leg deadlift is new to me.
Should I stop with the dips? |

Rep Power: 8 | | | If it's not happening anymore it's probably because of plateau, mix things up. |  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
