mate he was being sarcastic.

as oliver said.. PPP is for the 3 power lifting lifts.

those "clicky" guys you are talking about in "that" corner of the gym is EXACTLY where you want to be.

get in there!!!

they will be happy to help out a newbie to strength training.

what you are doing is essentially wasting your time.
and will no doubt blame the program and Markos for it...
 
Romp, did you read the manual?

Its for bench/squat and dead.

I thought you were talking about pulldowns for assistance.

You cant simply miss out on lifts because the equipment is used. Do you not drive if other cars are on the road?

PPP is specifically for the big three, all of that is explained in the manual, as are assistance exercises.

You must squat, bench press and deadlift. Do the other stuff IF you the time and energy AFTER.
 
If the place has:
- a squat rack
- a bench
- an olympic barbell set

Then there is absolutely nothing stopping you reaching your muscular potential. It doesn't need a hardcore attitude for you to do so.

If there are big guys using the bench etc just do your own thing. 99% of the time they will respect you for not being a retard and using the machines like everyone else does. If they bully you or are using equipment for upwards of 2 hours then there is an issue and you need to speak to management.

Are you fucking kidding?
I am responsible for for my own shortcomings. I've only had praise for his program and have been vocal about that. Fix your head.
 

Re-reading it now at work. I obviously have downs, because I still can't see where it points out that all of those reps should be for those 3.
 
fix my head?
you're the one that paid $20 for a massive 30 page document and didn't read it.

this is how it works.

people always blame the program for not reaching goals.
and then the truth of NOT doing the program as outlined rears it's head.
or not eating enough.

why are you "praising this program and be vocal about it" if you haven't even done it?

Google this and see what it means and where it takes you.

The second paragraph? Standards for squat/bench/dead

How about the first chapter, titled the Big Three, squat/bench/dead

I see that, I just don't see where it specifies that they are what the reps (numbers) need to be.

As I said, I have downs. I need things to be concise or I make assumptions and fuck up somehow. It comes with being retarded.

Bla bla bla bla. You assumed I'd blame your pal for my my own shortcomings. I told you to fix your head based on that particular spastic comment. I'd never blame anyone.

I've also not hidden what I've done, I've been quite out in the open about it because I'm looking to improve. I'm not hiding anything. I'm not blaming anyone. I just don't have the patience to simply ignore the assertion that I'd blame some blokes program for my own short-comings.
 
If I keep posting here I'm going to get gang-banged by veterans. I'm going to walk away for a week and come back. I didn't mean anything by what I said I just don't like being accused of blaming other people when I'm so obviously selfless and have done everything but. Ciao for now.
 
jesus christ. who thought squatting, benching, deadlifting and adding weight to those exercises every few weeks could be so fucking hard?
 
Romp - I don't care what you do.
all I meant was you purchased a program.
and you are doing it wrong (but thought you were doing it right)
you will not get the results

it is common to blame the program.

No need to spit the dummy over it.
 

Do you seriously have downs?
Anyway, the PPP is easy to read for those of us without any problems like that...

There are tables for the weight you are aiming for.
You'll need to work out what you can squat / bench / deadlift.

Let's say your current 1 rep max on squatting / benching / deadlifting is 50kg and you want to aim for 60kg on all lifts. Obviously this is unlikely but let's use it as an example.

You choose the 60kg table, personally I print it out and put it in my pocket at the commercial gym.
Week 1 will have the lifts you need to complete to pass it. There is a set of lifts for each week for the cycle.

If you don't get all lifts you don't pass and you repeat that week. If you fail the same week 3 times in a row you probably aimed too high on the program.

If the program is really easy after week 4 / 5 you might have aimed a little low, but you can just continue with the program as-is until completed.

Once complete repeat the process.
Print out the different tables you need for deadlift/bench/squat.
