To tell you the honest truth, it doesn’t seem that bad. Yes, the volume seems pretty large, but if you’re only doing ONE top set per exercise, then in reality volume would be kept in check quite nicely.

I would also split the legs up and do quads and hams on different days. I don’t know how or why it happened, but for some reason many people will split their upper body up like there’s no end, but cram all their lower body work on one day. I would break up legs even further if I were you.

Just make sure you don’t go to failure on EVERY set, just ONE top set per exercise.

Have fun :wink:

I agree with Forbes on splitting quads/hams, as it seems really unlikely that you’ll keep training with good intensity for 20 sets…If you want to keep tuesday as your only leg day, at least start with quads on a week, and hams on the following.
I also suggest not to work shoulder the day after chest, as your front delts will still be fatigued. I’do go with chest/back/shoulders

As the others said… Ramp up if you want to do that kind of thing instead of doing all sets at the same weight… Plus, you said you mix things up all the time… Ok, I’d really at least keep 1 main exercise for every major muscle-group the same… You got to actually progress after all.

Sorry to hijack the thread. I have always done my legs as a single unit on one day, could someone provide a basic example of what the do for a quad/ham split? Thanks

If you have gotten good results so far, you dont need to be asking us for advice. Just keep doing it, and make little changes as needed.

cheers guys

thanks for the good advice
