 Does f*ck all for SugdenBarbell.co.uk Member 1, 7173 posts SQ 182.5, BP 110, DL 205497.5 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq Administrator | That looks like a good routine, it's quite similar to Ed Coan's routine and one Rick has been doing recently (which Joe gave him) - a lot of good bench routines seem to start with high reps and then work right down - and usually have you benching more than once a week. One routine I have used on bench in the past is The Russian Squat Routine, first time I got a 5kg PB and second time missed the peak but still made good progress. I think the power of this program is that the volume really sets you up well for the intensity stage and the frequency helps nail your form - it's probably better for beginners I think. Olly has used it in the past with success on bench and push press, Joni has got some good progress out of it on bench too (mainly on reps though I think?). By the way, lets not turn this thread into a "should you have routines or do you believe in them" thread - just post any routines you think are good. If you think routines are pointless make another thread saying so  | ||

Simply put mate I wouldn't. It would get really messy the last two weeks, if you got through the volume stage! I haven't heard of anyone using it for deadlift and if people use it for squats they usually change it to twice a week to spread it out more. Whatever you use it with you really have to be conservative on the max you enter or you will just crash at intensity stage - people very rarely get through it without missing some reps somewhere. | ||

just smoked Ed and Neil - EAT MY GOAL Member 120, 1582 posts | cheers rob. I've just been reading through it and imagining doing some of those sessions for all three lifts! Like you said, looks like a crash someone along the line for sure. | ||
