Recently got back into the gym and feel absolutely wiped after about 4 lifts. Lately I’ve been doing an A/B style routine where:

Workout A: Squat, bench, RDL, row.
Workout B: Deadlift, OHP, leg press, lat pulldown

Now I’m not asking for program critique, but I’m wondering if it’s okay to not do more accessories?

    Yea if your goal is to just maintain and or prevent injuries you should not lift in a 5 rep range (or lower). It is way higher chances to injury when lifting heaver weight compared to more reps with lighter weight (not saying it should be easy or light weight). But it all comes down to what works for you.
