    This is a great workout, thank you for sharing with us! I am already doing something similar. Will add the rest of these exercises for sure. Btw I always thought I was eating enough and was disappointed because my weight stagnated. Then I got my first diet plan created on Next Level Diet. I realised that my previous food intake was way below my needs, although I thought I'm good. At the beginning it was hard to eat 2700 kcal in a day, but I got used to it. I started noticing real gains and it felt amazing. I wish I'd understood the importance of diet earlier.

At some point could you give us your thoughts on training principles for your older followers like me ( 65 years of age ) but still passionate about resistance training, however now starting to get aches, pains injuries etc.. You are now a very polished presenter no matter what the subject matter is, keep up the good work. 👍

    My current split is similar.
    Chest/Back.
    Legs/Shoulders
    Arms.
    I will alternate the higher sets and heavier loads. So for Chest I might do heavier weight, more sets for a few excersizes. Then for Back I would do lighter weight sets. (so no deadlifts that day) or exercises that use not so heavy of weight. Focus more on high reps.
    The next Chest/Back day. I would start with Back becasue that's going to be my heavy stuff, then finish with some lighter weight but high rep chest exercises.
    The heavy day stuff I always try and do 3-4 exercises, just looking for to really push myself. Lighter day body part I always do 4-5 exercises and I'm chasing the pump there.

    I like to bench with elbows at a 45* angle with wider grip, and I want to feel like I am “scooping” with the pec, from stretch, scooping with the pec, to peak contraction. If I go with elbows flared to the side, I get a better stretch but less on pec for contraction.
