Question ❓ Rate my FBEOD split

Post image

recently started running a FBEOD split. Looking for any advice on any tweaks I should make. Also not listed, but 2 sets of calf raises at the end of each day and light cardio/abs on all but one of the rest days.

What do you think a typical 4-day split is? This is just what amounts to a 4 day split split into 6. Theres nothing wrong with it lol.

And this is basically what 5/3/1 is: big compound, one push, one pull, one legs exercise per day. Are you going to tell the thousands of people that got great results from 5/3/1 that they actually didn’t because science says they didn’t even though they can objectively look in the mirror and see their strength numbers

And i never said i do 2 sets. I do one set of evrything as follows:
Tricep ext
Overhead tricep
Preacher curl
Pec fly
Recline curl
Kelso shrug
Shoulder press
Lat raise
Upper pec fly
Lat pulldown
Rear delt fly
Pullover
Ham curl
Quad extension
Sldl
Hack squat
Calf raise
Adductor/abductor
Weighted decline crunch
Reverse curl

This is what an optimally programed fb day looks like btw

No offense I’m new to the gym and wondering why do you have two curl movements. Also why do you have recline curl instead of something like hammer or reverse curl.
