    Upper/Lower training routine

    in Training

    Hi guys,


    Just wonderinf if anyone has an idea of an upper/lower routine plan i can take a look at and implement in the gym. Been going gym just over a year.(around 8 months taking it serious)

    im around about 2 months into the cut, started at 191 and currently around the 183lb mark.


    Any info would greatly be appreciated.


    Thankyou very much.

    Sure, so volume has to be very individual and considering you are dieting I’d start with baseline around 2-3 sets per exercise. Here is how you could lay it out. Upper Chest compound Shoulder compound Back compound (horizontal) Flye super set with vertical pull Laterals super set with rear delt Biceps / triceps super set m Have an A session, and a B session, rotate moves based on personal preference and general feel! Lower Squat variation Hip hinge variation Leg press Leg curl variation Leg extension variation Adductors or abductors Calves and abs. This is a basic set up guide for you, I recommend if you want to deadlift and squat, that you do one on legs a and one on legs b :) not both in same session. Supersets are there to make the efficiency of the sessions improved!

    Thanyou for the help, i startes my upper lower with real low reps like 5 reps on my compounds under the impression i need to lift real heavy to maintain muscle mass, is this incorrect of me to think that?

    Safety is the main reason for 8 reps and above. You’ll be able to get strong in lower rep ranges once you’re a back in a surplus
