Be brutal. I can take it...

My history: Lifted for 3-4 years and took a 6 odd year break. Now back into it, so effectively a beginner. Looking to cut a little but mainly to put on muscle mass (Lost 20kgs through 2013). I also play Squash and Tennis weekly, mixed with carrying my golf bag on my back for 18 holes every Saturday.

Squats 5x5
Flat Bench 5x5

^ What he said :)

May also find it a little hard to put on muscle with such and active routine also... squash + tennis ... Re-feed with beers on the 19th hole :cool:
 
Thanks for that guys.

RE: 19th hole beers - yes that is just a given + Friday lunch beers.

Also Silverback, pardon my ignorance but what are shurgs?
 
Questions for you Silverback:

Re B:
There are no rows listed - should the chins on day B be rows?
Dips - I know you don't believe in chest or tricep dips, but are you expecting these to be performed upright with arms close?

Re C:
Bench - flat again?

Click to expand...

chins, squat and dead's are the key.

deads, squat and SLDL's can be hard yakka on the back if one is also doing BB rows.

if he's going to row, he would better better served using a chest supported device.

There is only one way to do dips. This is only my opinion.

bench twice?
done right, they are a good exercise.
 
Agreed - I tend to stick with hammer strength rows to avoid lower back fatigue.

And yeah I'd be pretty happy with just doing chins, squats, deads (and dips).
