I have moved to lower/upper routine to add size and train each muscle group every 3 days. I have 5 days a week (2 upper/2 lower/1 arms + cardio day). I feel the upper body routine very taxing, maybe im doing to many exercises and i hope to finish each session within 75mins rclxub.gif

+1. Never ever make your own routines unless you're insanely shit knowladgeble in this field. Pls do the routine suggested by alien.
