I enjoyed it. Good mix and spread of muscle groups with a focus on common weakness (calves and delts). Need to factor your own warm up sets. My only criticism is week one and two has too few sets for deadlift, they are build up weeks but 2 sets is annoying for a compound exercise at the start of a workout IMO

A lot of the workouts don’t make sense on the days they are allotted for

Not very impressed by this program. I find it completely random to throw in a random since biceps exercise and lateral raise at the end of a leg day. The muscles aren’t warmed up in any way and making the mind-muscle connection just feels weak and at risk for injury. I have 15+ years of weight training experience.

If you truly take the RPE seriously and go to failure on at least one set per day you will see great growth. Also adding tempo periodically will greatly increase the effectiveness. Great plan so far.

I like that you mostly hit areas twice a week with a focus on compound movements. However, I think the Upper day could be better designed. It's almost entirely push exercises, despite the back being the largest upper body muscle group. By the end of the program, there's a lot of volume at high intensity too. If you're in your 20s and early 30s, this probably won't be an issue, but if you're over 40, you might end up needing to add in some rest days here and there. I did add some strength with this program though, which is pretty good considering I've been lifting for over 20 years.
