I hate doing bench nowdays. I haven't seen any results in a while and occasionally it hurts my rotator cuff. Still I feel like I shouldn't stop doing it
It's frustrating when I can do 3x6 reps with ease but when I add 2,5kg I can't even do 1x6.
All tips/ideas to improve my results are appreciated.
Yeah I do.
Chest workout is like the only thing that hasn't been showing any improvement lately.

Why not have legs split up too? Deadlifts with pull and squats/lunges with push. Just a thoughtOriginally Posted by Scott Frost
Going to to a push/pull split next week w/legs having their own day. Any recommendations?
I dont know of a good way to make a program with legs on both a push day and a pull day.
I know they're technically a quad exercise too but for me at least, I barely use my quads when deadlifting. I can deadlift heavy on say a monday... and on tuesday could squat no problem. As far as I know my deadlift form is pretty spot on... So I really don't think splitting up legs with one day revolving around quads and calfs, and the other day revolving around hams is a bad idea.Originally Posted by Durden7

He asks because your form is probably all wrong. That or you're using too close of a grip and actually working your triceps more than anything else.Originally Posted by JPioneer

I wouldn't say so but what difference does it make?
My problem might be that I don't lift straight up (I don't know that for a fact but it's a possibility). I'll have to try to pay more attention to keeping my elbows closer to my body and lifting straight up next time. If that doesn't help.. I don't know.Originally Posted by wiredz3

Look online for proper form. Try out dumbells. Make sure you're hitting incline. Always mix it up month to month.

durden, it's sort of like saying that you shouldn't do chin ups on pull day because they work your chest because chin ups do work your chest to some extent, but it's not a primarily a chest exercise. Similar with deadlifts. As long as you can handle deadlifting and then squatting the day after(or vice versa), I don't see any problem.
I would also think that the volume of training has to be looked at when recommending this. If you're going for high volume, I'd wait before doing this. But if you're doing relatively low volume, you should be alright.

Even if you can handle it, its still not the most efficient way to do it. If it works, then it works but I still wouldnt recommend it to someone.
I still dont know of a good way to make a program with a split like that. It just makes more sense to keep both ant/post. legs on the same day.
both pull ups and chin ups
Efficient in what way? Some people train more for fun and strength rather than size. I wouldn't see it being a problem there. Obviously it's not ideal for gaining the most strength like powerlifters aim for, but for a regular guy, you don't need that level of strength anyway.
I'm not much of a fan of splitting body parts up and working them separately though.

Or the folks that don't even TAKE a shower after working out. I have a few of those creeps at my gym.

Chin ups dont use the chest, but thats besides the point.
Efficient meaning getting the most out of every exercise. Those are two important lifts and it just makes more sense to me to do both of them at full strength.
I dont like splitting body parts up either, but I dont see a problem with having a leg day by itself.
Theres no problem doing a straight leg deadlift instead of a standard deadlift though.
The folks I see workout at 2 PM, so they have to be at work for at least 2 more hours. If you work out away from your job or right before you go home, I understand. But mid-day workout dudes have no excuse.Originally Posted by JPioneer
