Another retarded post with bad advice.
How about this: Pick a few basic compound movements, train with high intensity and focus on progression! BAM. That's all you need. 2x/week whole body w/ squats, deads, pulldowns, rows, bench presses, shoulder presses.
If you're continually focusing on progression - you're continually growing.
Agreed, with a small addendum. Nothing huge and I may be splitting hairs, but the inherent flaw with training naturally is that continual progression comes to a screeching halt very quickly. This is why I like it when people I train learn how to lift correctly (form, mind-muscle connection, etc) and learn to be intuitive so they KNOW how to train. And because changes take so long when training naturally, it's hard to make proper observations and to reflect on things. The natural landscape isn't as forgiving as it is when you'd on drugs so a lot of people are just running on the spot unfortunately.
I think it's important to be very intuitive and to know when to take breaks too, especially seeing as how easy it is to overtrain when you're not taking anything. If you know your body and can feel the momentum slowing, you know when it's time to scale back the intensity for a few weeks or so. Then you can go balls to the wall and blast through an upcoming plateau rather than smashing into it face first.
