A little while back you guys gave me some great advice!! I listened and my updated stats are: age - 23 weight - 157 Bench - 250x3 Squat 280 x 5 Deadlift - 310x5 I haven't made anymore gains on the routine that you guys co-signed for me so now after a few months i'm looking to do something new! I trained a lot for strength and to get my #s up as you guys said to, now i really want to grow more and focus on bodybuilding! I'm tryna decide on which routine to do, and picked some out, and wanted to know which you guys feel is best.. My ideas: Westside for Skinny Bastards (although I workout at home) The tom mutaffis split- Tom Mutaffis 3-Day Split - Bodybuilding.com Forums A routine I saw off ironadicts.com: Monday: Squats 2 x 5 Lunges 2 x 10 ( SLDL 3 x 8 Pull thru or db swings 3 x10 Calves (your choice of exercise if you like) 2 x 15 Tuesday: Wide grip flat bench 3 x 6 (index fingers on the rings) hammer grip dbs 2 x 8-12 reps Incline db ench 2x10 tricep push downs 2 x 8-10 db side laterals 2 x 10reps db front raises 2 x 10reps pull-a-parts 2 x 20rep Thursday: Dead lifts 2 x 5 rows 2 x 4-8reps Chins 2x failure weighted lat pull downs pull downs 2 x 8reps Standing curls 2 x 8-12 reps (or your favorite curl here) hammer curls or reverse curls 2 x 8-12rep |

I see you weigh 157 lbs. How tall are you and how much weight did you gain on your current routine?

I'm guessing if you had eaten better you would still be gaining on your other routine. And that's without even knowing the routine you were doing. Working through progression will be ultimately more valuable than looking for a new routine. |

So you need to find out why you aren't getting stronger. If all you do is switch routines, you will soon run into the exact same problem with the new one. You will have learned nothing.

What does your average daily eating look like, and what is your height? I see a lot of guys who say "they aren't making gains" but are still building strength. You should be pushing yourself during every workout, and if you are at least adding a rep or two here or there, or a few pounds here or there, you are still making gains. Please tell us your routine and give us as much specific information about strength gains during the last 2 months.
