    Hi Andy,

    I’m doing some fat loss stuff right now so I’m running at a pretty good-sized deficit. I’d like to add dips to my current program as I believe them to be a very effective exercise, but I’m trying to figure out the best spot to put them.

    My program is as follows:

    Mon
    Squats – 5’s


    Wed
    Bench – 5’s
    Press – 5’s

    Fri
    Deads – 3’s
    Chins – max reps

    Which of these sounds best?

    1. Add them after Squats to help even out the time I’m spent in the gym M/W/F – but
    will they interfere with bench and pressing on Wed?
    2. Add them on Wed, but for time management purposes that may make the
    scheduling a little hairy since I’m already doing 2 compounds this day.
    3. Friday? Same time issue as Wed potentially
    4. Don’t add them at all?
    5. Come in to the gym another day to do them?

    Thanks
