Run the split.
Beat your baseline.

Repeat comparable work.

Keep the main movements stable enough that weight, repetitions, and set volume mean something from one session to the next.

Make one clear move.

Add a clean repetition, use a small weight increase, or complete more useful work without letting technique collapse.

Review the whole week.

Use the Setz muscle overview to catch training gaps that one strong lift or one hard workout can hide.

repeatable.

Is this Chest + back / shoulders + arms / legs plan good for advanced lifters?

It is designed as a advanced starting point. Exercise technique, recovery, and available training time still decide whether the weekly workload is appropriate for you.

How long should I follow this workout split?

Keep the core structure stable for several comparable weeks. Change the plan when your schedule, recovery, equipment, or training goal changes—not because one workout felt unusually easy or hard.

How does Setz track progress on this plan?

Setz brings the previous weight and repetitions into each set, compares the completed volume, saves the workout baseline, and shows muscle-group coverage across the week.
