@garry777 This weekly workout plan looks great! If only I could force myself to hit the gym five days a week. I’m doing good if I can hit it four days a week.

@garry777 getting a v taper is partially about genetics. But that aside, make sure you aren’t overweight then build muscle on your upper body, chest, shoulders back.

You have a lot of reps in your sets. I would suggest increasing weight and reducing sets so you teach failure on your first set around 8-10 then do another 2 til failure. Increase weight when you reach failure at 11 or higher on your first set for the same exercise 3 times.

I personally do dips and 3 different types of pull ups at the end of every workout. 1 set to failure.
