Well gracias, sometime's I wish I was a little bit shorter (around 5'11-6'0) because those 2-3 inches would make it that much easier to look thicker lol.

I'm wanting to switch to a new split, a little more basic and I will be working everything twice a week instead of just once... First Attempt: Monday: Push(Chest,shoulders,tri) and Abs/maybe forearms Tuesday: Pull(Back/traps,biceps) and legs Wednesday:Rest repeat... Suggestions? Advice on number of sets/body part?

i would give legs its own day rather than put with back, another option is an upper lower split, which is what i like the best...4 days per week, 2 upper 2 lower...keep shooting for mainly compound lifts over isolations and not a ton of sets...for rep range, i like iether 8 or 5...ex: ill add weight until i cant keeop doing so w that range, say 8, then add the weight and start doing 5 reps til i can get 8, etc.

You do chest and back on the same day? So maybe.. Monday: Chest, Back, Arms Tuesday: Legs, Shoulders, abs Wed: Rest Along those lines?

ive been doing 2 upper body days, 2 lower days with variations each time so, like this: upper body a bench oh press pullups lying tri ext curls upper body b incline bench oh press rows dips shrugs/other bi exercise lower a squats sldl leg press calf raises weighted crunches lower b deadlifts leg press leg curls calf raises weighted crunches for me it works well, im mainly training for strength at the moment, so my rep ranges are generally 5 for compounds and 8-10 for isolations...i like this better than full body workouts cause it allows for some more work, but full are good too

i alternate them...id recommend taking an off day after deadlifting since you hit your back too (also dont do it day after upper for the same reason)...right now im doing, mon-lower a, tues upper b, thurs lower b, saturday upper b you could also rotate deadlifts every 3 or something so its every 1.5 weeks or so instead of every week if you lift heavy and push hard on the compounds, each day is pretty tough, which is why i like it a lot also, to keep a progressive load make sure you start underneath your max at your given rep range so you can add weight for a while and then ideally surpass your old max

Actually, scratch that. You're right, that would be a bad place for deadlift... I was wanting to put dead's in on my upper body day, but I guess they will have to go on lower... One sec...I'll edit that last post lol. There, how about that?

Considering deadlifts are a p-chain exercises (mainly glutes) why are they on an upper day?

Honestly lately I haven't been strict on a certain ratio, just been eating a lot. And yes I do need a lot lol. I'm not as severe as Veg on the ecto scale, but I'm up there. What would be a good ratio? 40:35:25 carbs:pro:fats? I'm probably going to need near 4000cals to make serious gains, but I'll probably go a week or so at ~3500 and see how that works out...

35 pro is higher than youd need. i would eat more carbs, generally maybe like 50-25-25 or something...i wouldnt worry about too strict of a diet just a lot of food, esp carbs and fats to spare protein. yeah id generally see what calories you need to start gaining, then from there just add more when either you stop gaining or strength isnt improving, etc.

i dont really know what to tell you with that, ive never used a smith machine so im not sure about how mcuh different that would be...ive actually got a badish left shoulder that i injured playing baseball then once again during a set of db press where it basically rolled backward and like collapsed, not cool. so yeah, be careful with shoulders, they seem pretty easy to injure. after that i took some time off of direct work and then worked back up and im all good with it. i would start w low weight and work back up (either free or smith, id ask some more people about that and describe your shoulder) and not push for that last rep until its built back up to normal
