TNE - BODYBUILDING SPLIT /ACHIEVE AESTHETICS

If you want to even out the upper back work, start each day with 5 sets of chest to bar pullups with just bodyweight stopping short of failure. or better yet do them in the manner of the greyskull frequency method throughout the day stopping well short of failure.

should balance everything out while not throwing more volume on top of a already high volume split.

Definitely possible, although like I said once again I feel the balancing out could be done through proper TUT and schemes given. Or if the user doesn't feel he is getting enough, as you mention is an option.
 
what rest period between sets?
especially on heavy day vs light days?
 
Heavy days 60-90 light days 60. I'm more of an...okay I got my breath and I'm stable.. Let's rock.

you squat 80% of your rm1 only after 90 seconds?
damn : / I'm not able to do it xD
When you decrease the reps in some exercises do you keep the weight the same? or you increase the weight proportionally of the decrease of reps?

When reps are decreased the weight gets heavier unless it's more for a negative or contraction method.

Gotcha!
It's quite a lot of volume and I don't like few exercises, I'll change few exercise and will report back when I start my tren cut :D
in more or less a month!

How would you change it if I don't want to train legs twice a week?
I have bigger legs then my upper body, don't need too grow them even bigger at the moment.

If you didn't want to train legs twice a week. You could move it to chest shoulder. Arms back. Legs. Chest shoulder. Arms back. It's actually what I basically follow at the moment. With slight changes.
 
I'm one week in on this routine. It feels great and it is a real taxing workout. My training time is limited to 1Hr15min so I have to tailor it a little to my needs. Looking forward to seeing some good results. I've been doing the same platform routine for the last 2 years. Obviously different exercise variations but same concept. My only problem is I feel like I rush through the workout and don't give myself enough rest between sets, but it is something I have to work on. Thenewera thank you for this contribution

20-30 seconds is usually my rest periods... but I've never done hypertrophy stuff, so maybe with the pump I won't be able to rest that short...
Doing legs/back in about an hour and will update!! Excited

definitely keep your rest periods 45-70 seconds on the " light" part and 70-100 on heavy. On a superset, remember it's back to back then 60 second rest. Kill that workout !

If you only have so much time. I would cut an exercise out of each muscle group for the desired day so you can focus a bit more.

Enjoy!!!! Keep me updated
 
You know, any methodology is a good methodology if it works for the lifter. I see this and think, yeah, not a lot of volume any given day but the frequency is higher which means what is missed in a lower volume one day can be caught in the next.

As volume goes up, frequency will need to come down a bit. There are just short of infinite many variations to choose from on that theme. In the end, choose the volume that works for you and then choose the frequency that keeps you growing but doesn't result in over training.

I'm sorry, but what is this over training you speak of?

That is exactly what I did. As for overtraining I don't feel like I am right now. I'm loving doing legs 2 days a week.
 
I would slam my legs 3 times a week naturally and felt great.
Was also running every day and doing a bunch of other dumb physical shit...
Resilience pushes you through the suck.
Nutrition builds you up and recovers you.
