Go to page 61 thats my routine posted there. Its pretty simple, im trying to do higher reps so when I go for 306 rep maxes my body will be able to get those last reps because its been used to higher reps. Also trying to switch it up from heavy heavy heavy on everything. So im still doing heavy compound lifts, but everything else is light. On db skullcrushers i could only do 15lbsx9 last set LOL.
Also my pullup endurance sucks. Ill get 10 the first set, and the next 3 sets ill get 5. So thats bullshit
Skipped legs and shoulders last week cuz I was busy with school and work, so I might do chest+shoulders today and some light squats. Im hoping to get 285x6 on bench, 1st week I got 275x6.
Also Im going to be doing this routine for another 2 months, then do a cut phase where my diet will be spot on and my training will be low rep again for 6 weeks. As soon as Im down to 8% bf Ill start my cycle 
Oso I need to know what you did as far as diet. Supp wise IM gona take eca, creatine, Gear, Big Blast, multi, and 20g fish oil.
