The problems with typical bodybuilding splits

[Nekrawulf]

not sure what you are saying here. are you basically saying that everything you have said in this thread may be wrong in that you haven't gotten any stronger?

maybe i misread.

Training major muscle groups wont make him stronger in bi isolation exercises. It will make him stronger in more functional movement.

Point in case, I can clean much more now than I could 30 lbs heavier, but I cant even come close to my preacher curl max.

I actually tried do arms on their own day again just to mix things up. I wasn't any stronger on my arm exercises than I am after training major muscle groups.

Well thats why I do the big squats cause I don't have ass. Maybe if I used some a.a.s. I would grow an ass. I knew that would get me in trouble but I didn't realize what I had written until I was driving.
Thanks Control when I plateau I will definitely give it a look or whatever it takes to break it. As for diet I am tired of eating. I am thinking about cutting just so I can stop eating all the time.

Add some light cardio to increase your appetite.

I wanna see those 20 " arms.

Control hasn't ever posted pictures that I'm aware of but Mr. Incredible's arms are definitely near the 19 to 20 inch mark bro...

Strength gains, but since I started the routine at the beginning of my feeble attempt at cutting not much in the way of size. My back is getting much stronger. I started the routine deadlifting 315 as my last set which was 3 reps. Just yesterday my last set was 3 reps of 375. Also when I started I could do about 8 good pull-ups with my bodyweight. Just yesterday I ended off with 10 reps with 35 pounds strapped on a belt.

WOW man, thats really good, keep it up

Have you seen any gains????

I have gained 28 lbs of lbm in 34 weeks on a 5 day split what can I expect from your type of workout. BTW no A.s.s in my supplements either

that depends on more factors that just a training split. diet is key in weight gain.

also, its AAS as in Anabolic/Androgenic Steroids. not ASS. :)

Well it depends one each person. Your diet, gene's, workout regement will have an impact on how you gain mass

Once you start to plauteu, you can try this workout regement

Thats what i did, and i am feeling each workout and seeing slight gains within these 2 weeks.

I've been at this split for a month and a half or so. Can't say for sure that it works WAY better than body part splits but my focus is tons better now that I can switch which lifts I do every workout. I added heavy Good-Mornings to pull day as a deadlift substitute every now and then. It is really helping my deadlift numbers.
