    Is there a way for you to check if we are? I did the check-ins when it was first released to enter and I think that worked, but not 100% sure and don’t wanna miss out (dont have the option to in profile, already tried logging out and also app is up to date

    I do 5x a week (3 on, 1 off, 2 on, 1 off) and just doing PPL. So it rolls over and in the big picture they all get even amount of stimulus. And I’m in the same boat as u, not weak body parts

    Drink plenty of water (before and after) and make sure you have enough electrolytes and sodium. Same goes for food.

    Probably a little too much for logbooking progression, I’d personally say 2 is the sweet spot if you get bored and can’t just do the same one

    Is it barbell or dumbbell? If barbell I’d recommend microplates (1.25lb). I add 2.5s to the sides on any plate lifts (ex. hack squat) and keep reps the same (ex. 8 top 12 backoff) as it is a smaller percentage increase than keeping weight the same and adding reps (Joe goes over this in an Insta reel) 1.25s could be just enough to keep you progressing but preventing plateus

    Great! Thanks! I know split isnt as important as most people think, just wanted to run something as „optimal”/ similar to ppl but still different since I’m getting a little bored of it. Might actually alter this since chest is actually my focus so likely do a Chest/Tri and then Chest/Back day, and hit back 2x also, on Hamstring/Back and that day with chest. Either way principles will be the same and will just adjust for recovery. Appreciate the help!

    I mean legs are a huge part of classic and not in physique at all, maybe thats why? (Just considering you didn’t post any leg pics). But also classic is just smaller in general, hence more beginner (in a competing sense) friendly. Imo anyone in physique (with decent legs) could give classic a go with more size

    ^that shoulder/arm day could also be shoulders/chest since thats a part I also want to grow the most alongside arms. Main idea remains the same

    Not exactly the answer but for knee pain solution I cannot recommend KneesOverToesGuy (Ben Patrick) enough. I have had knee pain since I was 8-9 years old, and now at 17 after a few months of incorporating his exercises as warmups before every leg day I am finally almost entirely pain free. Can do 3.5 plate hacks with full depth, bulgarians, etc. Its a lifesaver

    Also just realized I can make my own new weeks so it doesnt also include the workouts I dont want so its perfectly what I was asking for! Thanks!😅
