How often do you change your workout? Every 4 to 6 weeks? 6 to 8? When you plateau? Or before? I would like opinions please.  |

Quote: free weights is all you'll ever need. the only machine i ever use is the lat pulldown machine but you can do without that too. i also use the smith for jump shrugs, and this too isn't necessary. since you don't have a bench you could do a bit of floor presses where you press lying down on the floor. add all manner of over head pressing to that and you've got everything you need. i hope you're squatting and deadlifting too and doing bent over BB rows | I am squatting and deadlifting and doing bent over BB rows. I'm not a fan of the rows though. I think I have the weight too high and I can't lift it high enough to get proper results.

reduce the weight then - make sure you can touch the bar to your body on the way up. also - this is something which you won't see very often... do them "pendlay style" which means that you lift the bar directly off the floor each rep, effectively "deweighting" every time. keep your back parallel to the floor and preferably arched. this is a very good exercise.

I follow the P/RR/S routine which in most cases lasts 9 weeks (3 weeks each) and after that I change the exercises around.
The routine stays the same though as that's the beauty of the P/RR/S set-up.
