Alright can someone please help me i read over all these routines and i am hoping someone can answer my questions. I work full time landscaping and mowing lawn so i burn a large number of calories. I am currently doing a 5 day split every morning before work tried with high and low reps. I am bulking well trying taking in 4000 a day bumping it up gradually. I have an ecto build and doesnt help when burning so many calories so would low reps less volume 3 day split be a better deal?

Yes.

I agree with Cackerot.

I also agree. Your not giving your body enough time to recouperate if you're training on a 5 day split and working on a tiring job every day.

AS an extreme ecto myself I can attest to limiting your cardio as much as possible and when lifting go very heavy with 6-8 reps to exhaustion.
