My Beginner's Routine: Please Provide Feedback!

[uttukuxul Member Find all posts View Profile Close uttukuxul]

I have attempted to make a mash-up of two of the beginners routines featured on this site in order to make them fit my schedule and consistent with my goals.

I am seeking feedback from some more experienced PErs to see if this could use some revision or if I am good to go as outlined. I am also curious about the process of cementing gains and if there are any procedures geared specifically for such, so that I might implement them once the duration of this routine is finished.

I have attempted to utilize the de-conditioning concept and stretching portion of the Babbis routine https://www.pegym.com/forums/beginne...t-growing.html and ramp it into a JP 90-styled routine https://www.pegym.com/forums/beginne...r-routine.html while maintaining the breaks, meant to run the course of 6 months.

Mind you please, that I do not think I've got anything special here, I'm simply following the advice I see on this forum and attempting to make a routine fit into my lifestyle rather than copying a routine I know that will be difficult to stick to.

Any feedback is appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Why not just follow the jp90 routine? It's pretty close and you won't have to worry about this and that. But it looks fine, just try and jelq under 80% seeing how you're not conditioned.

Thanks for popping in Steve!

My job is crazy busy and the idea of de-conditioning is something I wanted to experiment with because it fits into my schedule of getting my ass kicked at work 60-80 hours a week (lately). If you don't mind my asking, have you done so and has it ever worked in your favor?

Sorry I haven't done any cementing routine, and I'm pretty much doing 1 day on 1 off lately, and it's going fine. It's pretty much up to your body to see if it works out for you, so planning weeks in advance sometimes doesn't work out how you liked it to.

Yeah I can see how that would be the case no doubt. I'm excited to see how this works out; the first routine I linked to suggests to take a month off after 6 weeks, and I am curious to see how staggering the breaks will work out over a longer period of time.
