Plan Details
The 4 Day Upper/Lower Recomp Split routine by adamhunsicker is a 7 day workout plan. It is an intermediate level plan to achieve cutting fitness goals.
Straight sets of 8-20 reps. Push to technical failure or 20-rep cap (whichever occurs first). Progress by adding 5-10 lbs when you consistently hit the upper rep range across most sets. If the last set hits technical failure before 8 reps, you're working too heavy. Warm ups are built into the program, no cardio warm-up required. Pay close attention to notes for exercise variation to target intended muscle group(s). Due to my particular build and genetics I've opted to skip calves. Feel free to add 2-4 sets of standing calf raises at the end of either (or both) leg days (Tuesday, Friday). Back work is set to emphasize width over thickness.
