For the discussion of bodybuilding and lifting for aesthetics.

I went from a heavy 5-8 reps PPL routine to an upper and lower split. Four days a week with A and B days.
I ended up dropping my weights down to 40%-55% of my 1RMs and started shooting for 12-20 Reps per set, 3 sets a lift.
I'm back up to 50ish%-70% of my 1rm as I've consistently been adding on 10lbs to the big 5 (with slight variation) every four to five weeks as I work through the rep range.
Normally starting out around 3x10-12 and finishing out the month something like 14/16/20. I'm probably going to call it quits and move back to heavy weights and lower reps once i hit body weight for 20 reps on bench. At this pace it 2-3 months off as I'm due for deload week.
First time running this high of rep ranges and it honestly feels nice on my joints. The pump is insane.

Arms trained heavily because my arms just do not grow.
Shoulders, I simply look at a dumbell and my shoulders explode. Arms? Nah. Nothing makes them grow except extreme volume and food.
Similar with Chest.

I basically do a 5 day split:
Chest and tris Back and Bis Legs Shoulders and Tris Legs + whatever needs catching up
Currently doing 2 sets of 8 - 12 reps (ish). Slow reps. Just grind them out til failure. Getting decent growth atm.

@Kloi I posted one.yesterday on the jacked tribe. It's from Reactive Training Systems and is an intermediate template you can use to design a routine.

Anyone who's more of an advanced lifter in terms on body weight to 1RM standards care to share their routine?
Im in the process of trying to tailor a routine for myself since I've stalled out on liner progression and need to adapt with heavy and light days.

Well I'm still unsure of what actual muscle/tendons are causing the pain. So I'll take a picture when I get home, highlight the affected area and post a picture here for you guys...for um...science purposes.
