Oxman said:I've been running Phillipi for squats and deads at the same time, Phillipi for deads completed now and running Ortmayer with it. Seems to work fine for me, i think you can comfortably run an overhead routine too, depends i guess on how much event work you do too, everyones recuperation abilities vary, try it, if it doesn't work do something else. Cheers Oxman, I noticed you got some really good gains from the Phillipi deadlift routine as well. Due to family commitments I'll probably only get to train events about every 3-4 weeks(  ) so hopefully my recovery will be able to keep up with the volume.Like you say, if it doesn't I'll crack on with something else  | |||

| Just been have a read fella. Sounds like you've had a really s**t time over the last few months. Hope the hospital appointment goes well and you can crack on with whichever type of training you fancy Si | |||

I don't think such a short write up does justice to the volume of work you did. You should ramble on a bit like me!!  Really strong pressing, the first 4 sets were incredibly fast. | |||

| cleans 40 x5 60 x5 80 x3 95 x2 110 x2 120 2x2 - these felt awful. Sore in my lats and legs didn't exactly feel sharp Deadlifts - heavy 120 x3 160 x3 187.5x2 - easy! Err, it is week 1 though.  Deadlifts - speed 150 8x3r - didn't feel as quick as the speed pulls last week, but I hadn't done the heavy work then either so think they were ok Bench Press 70 x8 90 x5 102.5 5x5 - felt a bit heavier than I expected, which isn't particularly good Rack Press - probably about a 6' lockout 60 x6 110 x5 130 x2 - epic fail - I thought based on my 120kg 1rm bench that I'd be able to do 130 for about 5.  115 x4+1F - I'm blaming the previous set for this failure on the last rep, but still need to re-evaluate what I'm going to do over the coming weeks | |||

Jabba said:Hi mate, I can't see any problems (other than fatigue) of running a deadlift and OH program concurrently. Obviously DL takes most of the body but shoulders are probably a good choice to run alongside the DL routine. As for the fronties, you'll know how you've adapted to the workload by that time anyway. If you're fresh enough why not just as long as you don't detract from the DL routine. Cheers John, Good point about the fronties. I just wasn't sure if anyone who had already done this routine thought it would be too much of a workload, or even work for different movements, especially a small bodypart like shoulders. | |||

VanillaGorilla said:I seem to recall someone over on marunde muscle using coan/phillippi for their overhead with some success. Sorry I cant be more specific haha! Thanks Vanilla, it wasn't specific but it was a reply nonetheless. Cheers Si | |||

RyanH said:Is the assistance what makes this routine important? Yeah, I'd like to know this too, cos I was going to screw the assistance and just concentrate on the heavy and speed deadlifts. | |||

Post Edited: 09.01.2012 @ 16:55 PM by slimsim Villa_Ste said:sounds interesting. sorry to be a pain in the arse but but could some1 explain how to do it in reps and sets. i always find the articles a bit confusing (dumb i know) Hi Ste, The following link will basically tell you exactly what % of your new 1rm weight you need to do week on week and the number of sets/reps. I always struggle trying to figure out exactly what articles mean, but this seems to lay it on a plate. http://tsampa.org/training/scripts/coan_phillipi_deadlift/?cur... Hope it helps Duhhh: just seen Chaos had already posted the link!! | |||

| Nice lifting man! Your squat must be higher than 210 based on the sets of 5 with 195. Are you planning on setting a new PB in the next few weeks? I think I'll keep an eye on your log. You're a similar weight to me and outlifting me on the big 3 by just the right amount to make me think I can catch you up  Please hold back on any PB's for the forseeable future!!!  | |||

| Hi Fellas, Was just hoping for a bit of advice in relation to running programmes. I've never really followed any form of programme and I really think to bring my deadlift and overhead up (the 2 main things I'm concerned with at the moment) I'm going to need to organise things a bit better than in the past. I'm planning on running the Philippi/Coan deadlift programme for my deadlift, starting tonight, with an aim to go from 235 to 250kg 1) Would it be reasonable to do a variant of this for strict pressing starting at say week 4 on the deadlift routine so that the loads used aren't at 100% at the same time? 2) Is there a better alternative to this for shoulders? (I'm not sure if the size of the muscle will affect it's ability to perform the volume or not) 3) Would it be ridiculous to add a third element in say for front squats? I'm thinking this could be added at week 8. None of the exercises would hopefully affect the others, but would the overall workload just be too much? Sorry for so many questions and going on a bit, but any advice would be much appreciated | |||

| Went for my first training session at Junction Gym today and basically feel like a little lad. What Gra-Bul and some of the other guys train really opened my eyes to just how weak I am, especially when lifting something other than an oly bar. Log - clean & press (35kg log) 35 2x4r 55 x3 75 2x2 85 3x1r 90 2x1r 100 F,F,F (cleaned ok, press was nowhere near) 80 c+3press x2 90 x1 100 xF - hoped the tips Gra-Bul gave me for the jerks and the lighter reps would have helped me nail this but it was a big Family Fortunes - Nerr Nerrrrr Yoke 130 x20m 170 x20m 200 x20m 230 x20m x2 - had 1 drop on each of these. Mainly cos the weight was swinging all over the place. The weight itself didn't feel too bad. Stones 78kg x5reps to 48in - no tacky but these didn't feel too bad, so thought I'd move up in weight 110 - only loaded about 6/16!  I did manage 3 in a row at the end. Still a major fail from what I've seen from a lot of threads about 1st stone attempts! 120 - F - could not even lap it. I just couldn't even balance the damn thing to properly get it off the floor more than a couple of inches big thanks to Gra-Bul. Some of the tips her gave me were invaluable and would have taken months possibly years to figure out yourself | |||
