AdamT | ![]() | New training program | 20-06-2014 @ 11:02 |
AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5209 posts | Post Edited: 20.06.2014 @ 12:53 PM by AdamT Monday Squat 3x5 90% 5 rep max Bench 5x5 90% 5 rep max Dynamic deficit deadlift 50% of max 8x1 Core work Wed Front Squat 3x3 75% 1 rep max Overhead strictpress 3x3 90% 3repmax Good mornings 3x8 Chin ups 3x8 (weighted if can do more than 8) Weighted dips 3x8 Core Friday Squat 1x5 85% 1rep max Bench 3x3 90& 1rep max Deadlift 2x2 90% 1 rep max. Rack pulls below the knee 10kg heavier than what I pull from the floor for as many reps as possible. Every monday&Wed I will be adding 2.5kg to main lifts. Every Friday I will be adding 5kg to squats and deads, and 2.5kg to bench. I have been doing this programme now for a few weeks and I am definitley seeing some nice results. Was previously on 5/3/1 but wanted to squat more so decided a new program is called for. Any ideas of things I could change or add on? Thanks guys | ||

Once I start to struggle I will do less max percent of compounds and do more assistance. I am dead lifting 100kg lighter than you so should recover a bit easier lol Cheers for your advice mate | ||

I'm not as strong as a lot of you guys yet so basically I just have to work hard to get a decent level and then just find out what works best for me and go from there. possibly down the road will have a few sessions with a strength coach and have a program better suited for me. | ||

![]() Sports an extremely muscular arse. Member 38, 6253 posts | I ask because adding 2.5/5kg per week is 10-20kg per month to your top lifts. That's not a plan, it's wishful thinking. The best advice I can offer is to think more long term. You're thinking all the way to your next sticking point. That's not even really a plan. | ||

The best advice I can offer is to think more long term. You're thinking all the way to your next sticking point. That's not even really a plan. I agree with you mate. I had lost a fair bit of strength due to not being able to train probably for a while. I know in a couple of months I will be back to where I need to be, then I will build a program more for the long term. I think I can make gains weekly for next couple of months. When I do struggle and stall, I will then plan a routine for more moderate increases. Thanks for your advice, I appreciate it. | ||
