>Power-Hipertrophy Intermediate Routine
>pic related
I never liked PHUL, and PPL requires too many days per week.
So I decided to create the superior routine.
So here's PHIR. It has everything you need, in a non-massive schedule.
It has all the important shit, and a big variation of DECENT hypertrophy exercises - instead of meme shit you see on other routines, like leg extensions/curls/presses.
Having the strength compounds once per week, while still hitting every muscle group at least twice per week, gives it decent room for strength progress for intermediate lifters.
This routine is aimed at people who have done novice routines like SS for at least 3-6 months, and would now like to switch to a hypertrophy-hybrid routine.
When quickly comparing PHIR to other hypertrophy routines, you can see it has immediate advantages:
>PPL requires 6 days per week
>Brosplit only hits a muscle group once per week, no strength gains
>Upper-Lower also hits the muscle groups twice per week, but has less room for strength progress as it either has too much or too little strength exercises per day. Plus, deadlifting with a still-recovering back sucks hard.
>Fullbody routines hit the muscle groups three times per week, but they offer less overall volume for each muscle group, and either less hypertrophy or strength focus.
PHIR is the most balanced routine, and it still gives you plenty of days to rest (and enjoy the weekend).
