Is this reasonably well?

[acsula]

Upper body:

Bb rows 4x 8

Bench press 4 x 8

Lat pulldown 3 x 8

Dips 3 x 8

Military press 4x 8

Ez bar curls 4 x 8

Tricep extensions 3 x 8

​

Lower body:

Squats 4 x 5

Rdls 4 x 8

Leg press 3 x 8

Bss 3 x 5

Leg curls 3 x 8

Back extensions 3 x 8

Calf raises 3 x 12

Split into a upper/lower 4 days a week. I want to emphasize strength but still have a bit room for hypertrophy. So maximum number of sets is capped at 8. As i add progressive overload and add more weight, the reps might bump down to like 5. But i work my way up to 8 reps and never exceed 8 reps.

I just need opinions.

Don't create your own program. Follow a proven one instead

@acsula Ricktatorship is right, follow a proven program.

When it comes to strength training, two things are pretty important, method of progression, and fatigue/load management.

A good program will take these into consideration and include it into the program.

@acsula I take it you have been consistent for about two years?

 

[acsula]

@hashleyg On and off sort of

 

[hashleyg]

@acsula You may want to dial back a bit and increase as you become more consistent.

@acsula Why do you never exceed 8 reps? What is your RPE or RIR when you cap yourself at 8 reps?

If you want a free custom stength program you can click that. You don't have to guess at making your own.

Good luck!
