    Exclamation Skinny fat trying to recomp program

    Trying to do a recomp with a ULXULXX program and been running it for 2 months but just wondering if its good enough of I should swap some things out.

    Workout A, Upper:
    Bench Press: 3x 6-8
    Yates Row: 3x 6-8
    Shoulder Press: 3x 8-12
    Pulldowns wide grip 2x 8-12
    Pulldowns close grip palms facing me 2x 8-12
    Lateral Raises 3x8-15 (with lower weight. Do as many as I can then a lower weight as many as I can straight away.. what is that called?)
    21s bicep curl
    Hammer curl 3x6-8
    Face pulls 3x10-12

    Workout B, Lower:
    Deadlift 3x 5-8
    Goblet Squat 3x10-12
    Calf raises 3xX
    Leg Raises
    Leg Push Machine 3x8-12
    Face Pulls Light 3x

    And then repeat. I was thinking of throwing 21s out the window and do heavy barbell curls against a wall instead. Is it good enough for a 'dyel' skinny fat beginner? Thanks

    Looks like a lot of Upper and repetitive 2x/week, but after 2 months you'd be the best judge of whether it's "good enough" for whatever your goals are.

    If you're doing 21s, do them as a finisher.

    I dont know if my progress is good enough as to me I look the same. In 7 weeks I added 10kg to my bench (From 50kg to 60kg x8) 5kg on my shoulder press, (from 25kg to 30kg x 12) and 30kg on my deadlift. I dont know if this is absolute dog**** or not.

    You're better off doing a proper novice program or at least an UL that's not designed by you, but if doing your own program motivates you to work out - it's better than doing nothing. "Good enough" is subjective and depends on your personal standards.

    How you do on a recomp will depend as much on your nutrition plan as the program itself.

    I have eaten very very strict. Idk if I should change my workout plan or just stick with it.. My friend said I should try Fullbody x3 a week instead. I spend more time in the gym on my current time then that would take anyway hmm..
