Wow! Just came back lol there is quite a discussion here:
Andalite: No problem about the log, I actually enjoy stuff like this lol!

I have been sick today and threw up a couple times, hopefully back to working out tomorrow though, haven't been able to eat hardly at all today.

Dude, this may seem contradictory but whenever you are sick, eat like a fucking hog. Whenever I fall sick and I dont eat, I end up losing a LOT of weight. And that weight doesn't just bounce back. Strength might. But the weight doesn't.

Comments:
Sick Workout! Squats felt so easy, a week off really helped my strength out, I probably could have gotten 6 or 7, although I did do a little gm'ing the last 2 reps. Pullups were way better than expected, I never expected to do that well on them. Rows I have stalled at though, my form was really shitty to get 195x3 up. Just so pumped about squats!!!!

BTW, I went a couple inches below parallel on squats, so actually deeper than 300x2. Still can't believe I went from a hard 300x2 to 300x5 lol! Also, all chinups and pullups were deadhand.

I also eat like a hog with most sicknesses, but I had the stomach flu and I tried eating but I just kept throwing it up, but tonight I had some chicken soup and juice, and I feel fine.

This routine will be a lot of exercises and volume but day 1 was really fun..... I dropped my rock climbing class 2x per week so that will cut down a little. Stil lnot sure when to do cardio and all that though....

 

[Andalite]

You won't be able to do Pistol Squats after Back Squats. Pistols are a knee dominant exercise. Put them after Deadlifts or give them their own day. Otherwise it won't work. I LOVE your exercise selection.

i see some possible things from my noob eyes- i'll edit when i get home from school



Day 1 (monday)
Squat
Pistol Squats (maybe)
Powersnatches (2 handed and 1 handed)
weighted pullups and chinups
alternating hammer curls
reverse curls

pistols after regular squats = not great idea IMO.

Day 2 (Wednesday)
Bench
Db Flies
Front squat
db incline and flat bench
high pulls
bb skullcrushers
weighted pushups
other triceps work

personally speaking, i would do front squat then bench, but if you're going to front squat i'd do it before flies too. Also, since the DBs are your gym are too easy for you, i would focus more on incline DB than flat DB because you won't really be able to progress as efficiently with flat DBs unless you want to do a lot of reps with it. You also already have flat BB.

Day 3 (Friday)
Deadlift
Good morning
1 handed deadlift
static grip holds
gripper work later
hypers

i think it would be optimal for you to switch grip training to another day as doing it on the same day as deadlifts and 1 handed deadlifts is going to be very very hard.

Day 4 (saturday or maybe sunday)
split jerk/military press
cgbp supersetted with explosive pushups
explosive bench
seated db press
db rotators
barbell curls

just wondering why you have CGBP in here since you do tris on Day 2, and also why you have explosive bench directly after CGBP.

Most of my workout take me 2 hours....Deadlifts actually takes me 2.5 hours. Upper Body Days are usually 2.5 hours as well. Squat day is like 2 hours and my back training day is like 1 hour or so...It kinda evens itself out to an average of 2 hours per session (roughly).
