On the days that I use a higher rep range, I also use some high intensity techniques, like supersets, drop sets, rest pause,....

I train 5-6 times a week (usually from monday to friday)
I do back shoulders and biceps on a pull day in a standard range of 15-8 repetitions and triceps on a push day with the same rep range. Calves and abdominals are trained on a legs day with a 20-10 rep range.

In the off-season I used for 4 months a full body workout, and then an upper-lower split, but for the last 4 months I switched for the split I explained above, and I must say that it fits for me perfectly at the moment, so I'll keep it also in the first part of the off-season.

PREPARATION UPDATE
There are 2 weeks left to the IBFF world championships in Koper. Here is a videoclip from today's training:


 I'm still reversing my macros. This week I'll be on 220g protein / 300g carbs / 40g fat (2440 kcal). I'm not planning a refeed these days, although I started to feel my legs very heavy. At the moment I do not feel a lot of hunger, which is a little bit strange to me, compared to the previous preparations. My current bodyweight varies from 75,5 kg to 76,5 kg.
