I just updated my garage gym and looking to start a new routine. I struggle to just make up workouts and need a set guideline to keep on track. I just finished doing DB strength since I only had adjustable dumbbells.

I am 5’9” and weigh 150 lbs. I have always struggled to put on a lot of muscle mass but would like to push myself now.

Current home gym set up:
Adjustable DB set
Barbell with 300lbs of weight
Half rack
Pull up bar
25lb kettlebells

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Grasshopper is perfect for you.

I am on week 4 after an 8 month layoff. Weeks 1-4 are 3 days a week then weeks 5-8 are 4 days/week

I have your same issues and we’re about the same size. I’m 5’10” and I’ll shrivel up to 140-150 (currently 175) when I’m not lifting/eating right.

For us, the bigger issue is eating enough rather than lifting. You gotta just force it down sometimes. Shakes help since they don’t fill you up as much and provide calories. Try to hit 200g of protein/day and get a 500 calorie surplus and the weight will come on. It’s not easy, but I know from personal experience in your exact shoes that it can be done.

As for lifting, the Greyskull programs like 777’s said and any of Jim Wendler’s programs are my favorites. My overall favorite is the Boring But Big variation of Wendler’s 5/3/1.
