New Split .. Chest, Shoulders and Tris 7/6/2026
Today is the first day of a new split! This will be more of a traditional Push, Pull, Legs routine, but with legs right in the middle. I'll be taking about 3 minutes of rest between sets for compound movements, and 2 minutes for accessory lifts. Most sets will be to 1 or 2 RIR, but I'm going to take the last set of many of the compound movements to failure for that final push. The goal is to keep most workouts between 50 to 55 minutes. Here is today's workout!
- Low incline Press: 3 sets. The last set was to failure. The weight was up compared to my higher volume workouts.
- Decline fly: 2 sets. Wow, this felt great.
- OH seated OH Press: Once again, the last set was to failure. The weights were up compared to short rest times. It felt solid.
- Cable Side laterals: 2 sets.
- OH Tricep extensions: 2 sets.
- ABS: 3 sets.
- Sled HIIT: 8 reps.
- elliptical 15 minutes.
I felt like I had left something on the table. I'll add a couple more sets for chest next day 1.
Weight this morning was 185.5 with 14.8 pounds of fat. Total sets yesterday was 11,793.
