Not discrediting your efforts at all. It's just that it baffles me when someone of your body type/size is doing concentration workouts (biceps/legs) when you should focus more on compound exercises.

Also, pro tip: cardio is NOT a good way to cut down fat. Strength training is. I don't even do cardios, maybe the occasional 10 minutes jog with my gf once bi-weekly.

If you think you should do cardios once in a while 'to take care of the heart', then most likely you've been working out like a girl (read: not intense).

Personally I'm 65kg @ 8% bodyfat, although still below my target 75kg, I look ripped and people could instantly tell I workout. And you know what? I've never even tried to 'build' my body, I go to the gym day in day out just to build my strength as a powerlifter. Not trying to brag, but that's how it is. And no, it's not genetics, I've been skinny and underweight my whole life.

I don't need someone over the Internet with grammar deficiency to verify my credibility. That, and the fact that I don't give a single shit what people think of my body because I'm not a bodybuilder.

Honestly, I don't think that the split programme is efficient for natural beginners it MAY work on some. Why not consider strength programmes instead? Like Stronglift 5x5 by markrippletoe?

There's also a new programme that's recently out,not entirely sure on its effectively yet or whether it's a decent programme,I'm halfway through the ebook, it's called the Bulgarian Mannual by Greg Nuckols & Omar Isuf.

ICF? No I'm not. It looks very similar to Stronglifts 5x5, but with the added bodybuilding/isolation exercise. So I'm guessing it's oriented for the novice bodybuilding crowd.

As for programs, I'm on my own custom workout schedule. I have classes and work, so I don't workout on a consistent basis. I've been doing this since I first started 14 months ago.

My advice for you is to follow what works for you. There's no one best program, there are a lot of great program, but it depends on how you perform in the gym and what's on your plate.
Get accustomed to the world of strength training, and when you get the hang of it and understand many of the terms in bodybuilding and weightlifting, then try the program and see how it works out.

I've noticed from the previous posts about your diet is that they are terrible, really. Looks to me it's for someone trying to gain mass, not lose them. Have you calculated your calory intakes? And what are those calories primarily made up of? Carbs? Fats? What about vitamins and minerals? Those are the things you have to watch out.

The original Bulgarian Method need a coach to check, fix and improve your lifts and since the new one doesn't have, it rely heavily on the individual to check, fix and improve the lift which already shown that it's not even for intermediate.

But I like the idea of squatting more if you want to have big squat number which also applicable for any lifts hence the reason why I like PHAT due to having twice a week squat, deadlift and bench press.
