I would say start a lean bulk. If you're doing cardio already, try and keep it to a minimum, but don't cut it out completely (For your health). Try and train each muscle group at least twice a week, the second time does not have to be of the same intensity. I have a one day for high reps and one for low reps. Hitting each twice a week is a big factor, and has helped me make serious gains.

Is your gym shut down due to the quarantine or do you have a home gym? And whats your daily protein intake?

That sounds quite relaxed, the truth was that before he managed a similar routine, but one day my dad (5'7 also, I don't know his weight, but he has a good thick physique at his age of 53) he gave me the recommendation to train as he did in his youth, which was to lift weights to exhaustion 5 days a week, training all muscle groups. That is what I have recently implemented. I don't know if that is right or wrong.
I have two pairs of homemade weights. By the way, I think I have become very used to the two weights and a heavier one will help me to have more gains.

I do not count proteins, but I try to consume enough.

Im not gonna bother risking it lmao

same i have used oral steroids before. but had some problems so for now, i am not on anything. when i am older, i will just inject test and stay away from the weird shit.

Gaining size natty is a joke tbh. You'll only look "good" or "impressive" to noobs who don't lift (even people on this forum who say they're blackpilled JFL).

Unless you train for strength, its a complete waste of time. Bodybuilding is shit. Natties will benefit much more from powerlifting training.

Couldn't have said it better myself

Nice to see a fellow lifter. Have you seen an increase in tendinitis by training every day? I usually leave at least 24-48 hours rest for each muscle to avoid it, (I get tendinitis in my chest very easily). Also how do your shoulders feel after 5-6 sets of side lats a day?

I might try that out with lighter weight.

I suppose it varies from lifter to lifter, I have gotten wrist tendonitis due to training biceps every day, and I get elbow pain if I train triceps daily so I left them out
As for bigger muscles, I have tried going over two times a week but the recovery is too slow, I believe chest and back do require 48 hours or so of rest, for naturals at least
The muscles that I train daily are shoulders (side and rear delts, I train front delts on the push day), calves, upper traps and neck

Cope if u get those side effects, your genes are trash regardless.

Smart idea. Thats what i plan on doing when i get to 35 or 40.

Counting protien as a natty is important. At least it was for me. Also i do a 5 day split as well.

brutal truth. very few natties ever seem to get close to what roiders achieve. and it takes natties years of extreme discipline while any half decent roider can make progress relatively easily and look better. roiders also tend to have better mental state.

Gotcha. I have been trying to incorporate more shoulder work since i do it once a week. Doing Heavy Traps, with side and rear delts daily with light weight sounds good though. Definitely gonna try that.

I used to get elbow tendinitis too, but i've strengthened my elbows with resistance bands so they wouldn't flare up during skull crushers or overhead movements.

I'll look into this, there had been times I wasn't able to lift for a week due to elbow pain

Oh, then that method is fine with you. I thought you would say that was something excessive. According to my father, this is how the body is forced to "change".

No way. 5 days isnt excessive at all. Specially if you're natty. Your father was right.
