I have been using the same exercises for the past 16 weeks. However, I have stalled on most of my upper body exercises for the past 4-6 weeks. My lower body has still been progressing, which makes me think that maybe I'm not overtraining, maybe I just need to switch up the upper body exercises.
Do you think I should just switch the exercises and try and progress on new movements, or perhaps try switching the entire structure of the program for something lower volume (perhaps lift 3 days/week, maybe do sprints/jumping on a fourth day).
Currently train 5 days/week, high volume. usually takes me 90 min per session
Day1: Upper Body Power
Day2: Lower Body Power
Day3: Off
Day4: Back and Shoulders Hypertrophy
Day5: Legs Hypertrophy
Day6: Chest and Arms Hypertrophy
Day7: Off
Days 1 and 2 are lower volume but heavy weights, trying to set PR's. Days 4-6 are more muscle building in the sense as opposed to Days 1 and 2 where I'm trying to add weight to movements on days 4-6 I am more focused on isolating the target muscle using perfect form on the exercises.
