Just got the AI newsleter and they're having a 50% off everything and all purchases also get a free shirt, Cinch gym bag and samples with code BLKFRI at Invalid Link Removed from 12 A.M. Friday through midnight Sunday.
Stocking up Friday morning!
Have you ever tried TED hose? They are compression stockings/socks. Look ghey but they make a huge difference. I used to work 10+ hr shifts on my feet the whole time and if I used these my legs felt 100% better.
This is a variant that Matt Rhodes came up with a while back. Thought I'd post the spreadsheet I made for it. And before anyone asks the order of the weeks are changed on purpose :squareeyed:
Open the spreadsheet and the link to the specific post at EliteFTS is in it. If you have questions...
maybe it would help if you told us why you think one is bodybuilding and the other is powerlifting?
The lifts are the same and the rep schemes aren't too far off of what you would see a PLer doing.
If you wanted to add some heavy singles, doubles or triples into the workouts you are...
How about:
Squats/Front Squats
and
Stiff Leg Deadlifts
You can also move your foot position to the very top of the plate on the leg press to get more focus on the hamstrings.
So on Saturday you want to do 8 to 10 sets of 3 to 5 reps for each of the powerlifts, in addition to doing them once during the week?
I'm not sure what you plan on getting out of the Saturday session that you can't get out of your weekday sessions. You can make excellent progress training the...
You have a PM...
This is the spreadsheet that I made to use for it. Everything is built out (except the accessory stuff) and pretty straightforward.
Just type in what you want to use for your calculations (usually 90% of your 1RM and the spreadsheet does the rest).
Let me know if you have...
Have you decided what you want to do for each day? lifts, sets, reps, weights, etc...
The powerlifts work a lot of muscle so you would want to take into account that you're working every multiple times a week.

Lots of reps here. Taking it somewhat easy on the weights to get ready for next weeks test. Got all of these done in about 20 minutes and I was huffing and puffing at the...
5 days a week might be a bit much. Have researched using some powerlifting programs? If you're using Westside you could switch out DE for RE and gain quite a bit of mass. Other programs like Wendler's 5/3/1 and MadCows 5x5 are all very solid.
Good luck,
