The primary core belief is focused on failure training...which is basically hypertrophy. My hypertrophy routine follows a similar pattern, which involves breakdowns and failure sets.

In general, it's a good training methodology - no issues with it.

Can you explain why you wouldn't advise pushups on chest day at the end f a work out?

If you've already hit failure, you are only going to start putting additional stress on supporting muscles and potentially risking shoulder damage. I would avoid these immediately at the end of a truly brutal workout resulting in failure.

I've been pooping a lot lately.... I don't know why


Like it started a week ago after a night out drinking, and the next day i shit like 6 times. Thought it had something to do with that. They are relatively small shits, and my stool did not come out in large logs like I am used to. Rather smaller pellets that are wet if ya knaw what i'm sayin.

It's not as bad, but i'm still going 3-4 times a day.


I've been drinking more coffee/tea lately since i'm at my parents for a month and they have a keurig and I cant resist. I am thinking the caffeine has something to do with this, but i've also been drinking a little more water as well.

Wondering what some of causes could possibly be. I don't mind cause I have some pretty gg games on my iphone, but I rather enjoyed being a boss and just taking one massive shit a day that just speaks boss level

Would this be a good routine?

Thurs - Back + tri
Fri - Shoulders+ bicep
Sat - Chest + abs
Sun- Cardio
Mon- Back+tri
Tues-shoulders + bicep
Wed - break
Thurs - Chest+ abs..
Fri - Cardio

Etc..etc.. this a decent routine?

Coffee and alcohol BOTH can cause this laxative like effect. Discontinue both for 2-3 days and see if conditions improve.

Certainly...look like a good split.

with the right intensity...

how could someone possibly (average natty person)

do Triceps, then Shoulders, then Chest

all back to back days...

That is retarded.

and the routine has no Legs?

Am I missing something?

Not trying to sound like an ass, that routine just looks like complete shit IMO of course.

It's a hypertrophy routine, which focuses on volume. You can absolutely do that routine, all natural, with just plenty of sleep, water, and of course, good clean food.

On a strength only routine, this split would NOT be optimal with natural considerations.

i'm hoping to reduce the sugar i take in. i already eat a lot of fruit (yonanas/smoothies)
