Looking good so far man. How are you finding the volume? I always thought this programme didn't look that hard on paper as the weights are generally quite light, but I assume the sheer volume makes up for that.

Thinking of giving sheiko a shot myself so I'm very interested to see how you get on with this.

it's hard work, and the last sets definitely feel heavier than they are. It is manageable though

Wondered why the bar speed was so slow for my final sets of bench press when I realised I had misloaded the bar to 10kg to high, ha. Brought it back down for the last 3 sets which were much faster.

Also added in supersets of hammer curls for the sake of my elbows between flyes which really seemed to work - they're not sore at all at the mo.

Missed out the second lot of benching and flyes as my left shoulder felt absolutely fooked. Upper body in general feels pretty battered - definitely gonna reducing the volume of benching next cycle, can't handle this much. Lower body seems fine though

gonna deload this week before trying out maxes on Friday. I'll then be starting a new four week cycle, using a modified version of the sheiko programme I just did. I've replaced some of the benching with pressing and added in some back work.

I've also decided to use RTS (reactive training systems by Mike Tuscherer) style fatigue stops and RPEs to regulate my volume instead of counting out sets and using percentages. Partly because it's easier than working it all out, and partly because I think it could be more effective - I've used RTS before and I liked it.

So yeah it's not really gonna be Sheiko anymore, but still based on it, this is what it'll look like:

sounds really complicated at first, but when you get used to using these techniques it really takes a lot of guess work out of training. Not for everyone though
