I'm used to do HIT, now my new routine allows me to hit each bodybart twice a week (or maybe just every 4 days) from a different angle.

hahah I see. I am just wondering cause doggcrap = DC which is a popular training program, and you've described sorta how it is.

No it's a concoction of my own.

I read in Tom Platz' Prostyle Bodybuilding that Bent Rows, Dips, Chins and bench presses were the best all round upper body movements. I deducted what would be best for lower body and filled in the gaps. Now I have just 8 key movements:

Low incline bench
Dips
Push presses
Bent Rows
Chins
deads
Squats
Cross bench pullovers

If I can do all of these in a week then I've hit the entire body from a couple of different angles.

As an example,

Front delts dont need upright rows or front raises because they are hit by benchs, dips, and of course push presses (- same for triceps)

Lower back is canned by: squats, rows, deads, push presses

The only sinlge joint exercises I do are bodybuilding moves occasionally for muscles that are sometimes not hit with the 8:

Barbel curls (or incline dumbell curls) - maybe once every other week

Seated cheat dumbel laterals - maybe once every other week

Flyes (On a chest day if delts/ tris too blasted)

(& pleanty of calf work!)

Im trying a weird routine where in a week Ill work one muscle group twice but the rest just once then it switches the next week

for example Ill do

mon-chest/bi's
tue back/abs
wed shoulder/tri's
thur legs
fri chest/bi's

if I feel good I may keep going and on sat do back/ abs again if not my next week looks like this

mon-back/abs
tue- shoulders/tri's
wed -legs
thur chest/bi's
fri-back/abs

and it keeps rotating like that
