    Layne Norton's 'PHAT' routine

    I have been on PHAT for the last 4 months roughly and it is the best program i have ever used. I love the mix between power and hypertrophy.

    Squats

    There's no set rule man. Just keep on going until you are fkd. Tonight i did 5 sets of 3 reps for front squats. A couple of weeks ago i did 10 sets of 3 reps. Just get under the bar and squat!

    Squats

    Work with different rep ranges instead of doing 10's all the time. One session you might do 95kg 5x5. Next session you might do 70kg 2x20. Next session you might do 90kg 3x10. As mentioned above you should be trying to add either weight or reps every session. So if you do 90kg 3x8 then next...

    Cutting Diet

    I stopped drinking the day after my 21st Bday. Havent sipped alcohol in almost 4 years. Best thing i ever did. Stay away from beer, drink spirits straight or with Pmax or Coke Zero for the least amount of calories. Biggest thing is to resist the 2am Yiros or Pizza hahaha. :D

    8 x Mr Olympia LeeHaney says 'no' to squats?

    I thought we covered this in the other thread. Squats. Are. Over. Rated. There are other alternatives that aren't as hard so you don't have to strain. The only thing is you won't get the same results. But who cares about that..
