Good afternoon all! I have a question about AM/PM splits and antagonistic pairings. Im looking to start an upper/lower split every other day, and was curious when to add in some accessory work for arms and shoulders.
example:
Day 1 AM-
vertical/horizontal push and pull antagonistic supersets.
Day 1 PM- arms superset
Day 2 off
Day 3 lower body hip/quad dominant
barbell hacks, leg extensions, calf raises, abs
day 4 off
day 5 repeat day 1
day 6 off
day 7 lower body hip/ham dominant
barbell deads, hamstring curls, calfs, abs
Seems to me your hitting your shoulders every darn day sometimes twice a day. even doing culrs your hitting thew shoulder somewhat. Deads, hack squats, squats, your usinf your shoulders, OH press bench press, rows chins, hitting shoulders.
I personally wouldnt add to much bro thats a LOT allready. Maybe some external rotations in along with the arms and a few sets of properly down lat raises with emphasis on the rear delt and call it done.

i’d rather you do squats then barbell hack squats. Get rid of the leg extensions but i would leave the leg curls.
simple split.
upper body horizontal push/pull
squats, leg curls, calves
upper body vertical push/pull
deads, calves, obliques, abs
you can add arm isolation workouts when ever you want an easy add in workout. Don’t forget HIIT cardio to get in shape. laters pk
