Description

This 6 day push/pull/legs split routine includes compound lifts and multiple intensities to instigate muscle growth. Each workout starts with a compound lift for 5 sets at a higher intensity, and is followed by a final set of the same lift at a lighter intensity for as many reps as possible. This variety of volume and intensity provides a base stimulus, and together with complementary lifts will make each day optimal for maximum muscle growth.
