Thumbs up. Simplicity rules for me.

I go by feel on my workouts. If I feel good I work up to a heavy weight and try to hit a PR single, double or triple. If I don't feel up to par that day I go lighter and work on form, speed, technique, ect. Also when training for a meet I go raw one week, and geared 2 weeks. Here's my weekly routine

Mon- SQ/DL, lower accessory
Wed- Bench, Shoulders, Triceps
Fri- Back, Biceps, Grip

I'm also a very instinctive lifter. so me work out very a lot from one to another. sorry.

Im on the same track as rich and g, variation is the key in my w/o's, and the variation depends on how i feel that day. Some weeks i go to the gym 3 days, some 5 days and a small pump-a-thon at home in sunday evening, i always listen to what my body tells me and what it needs in nutrition.

I'm trying this pseudo fullbody routine. We'll see if I last more then a week:

Day 1 - Chest, Back, Shoulders, Triceps, Biceps
Day 2 - Squats, Quads, Hammies and Abs
Day 3 - Chest, Back, Shoulders, Triceps, Calves
Day 4 - Deadlifts, Romanian Deadlifts, Front Squats and Abs
Day 5 - Chest, Back, Shoulders, Triceps, Biceps
Day 6 - Squats, Quads, Hammies and Abs
Day 7 - Rest

For most big movements I am doing a 6x2 rep scheme transitioning into a 6x3 (ala Hepburn)

Thanks! I've been on it 3 or 4 days now, but haven't hinted at it because I have been free-wheeling it so much this year.

I put you, Anderson and Hepburn in a blender....

I really want to try squatting twice a week without doing much else on squat days. And the combo of deadlifts and RDLs on the same day...I've been doing that for 3 weeks now and I really like it.

So far the low rep squats are making this easier then I thought. Not like they're fun or anything...
