❗️My workouts tend to be more volume than optimal for beginner lifters. I make these routines for the purpose of building aesthetics based on the knowledge I’ve gained over the years in what workout splits and exercises I used to build and shape my own body. Each workout is provided with the intention of being a new routine for you in case you’ve hit a pleateau in progress with your current routine.
In the end, progressive overload is what will drive hypertrophy (muscle gain), and the best way to actively measure progressive overload “accurately” is to measure the total volume of work done on that muscle group(s) and increase that volume by a small increment at each proceeding recurrence of that muscle group throughout your program.
The easiest way to ensure you’re increasing volume is by keeping the exercises of each recurrence of that muscle group a constant (doing the same exercises at each recurrence) in order to eliminate exercise variance as a variable that may affect total work done in that muscle group.
